Thanks for quoting Walt Kelly. My copy is buried somewhere and I can't find it online, but in the Preface to Ten Ever-Lovin' Blue-Eyed Years With Pogo, Walt Kelly explained the reason everything went sideways in Vietnam because the diplomatic corps liked being posted to Vietnam, compared to e. g. Africa, because the women were hot.
The town i grew up in, where my brother still lives, had a flashing yellow light over the intersection from maybe 1980 until 2000 or so.
