Description

Rita Barbraitis, in her Summer work uniform, stands in front of her hooch at Base Camp Cu Chi, Vietnam, 1968. Back of photograph reads: Summer work uniform, patch [on] sleeve is 8th army patch. Our hooch behind me. "Rocking" a hooch consists of throwing a hand full of rocks on the roof and have them roll down. It's quite shattering - happens all the time.
