The bad part about the tank corps, was that many went crazy and were all
sectioned out after their brains boiled in the heat of those things.

Sergeant Brown, my training sergeant in US Army ComZ, was a military
policeman in Tokyo in June 1950. When he arrived with all the other
fat and happy garrison troops in Korea, he was told: "We don't need no
MPs. Everybody's going in the same direction: South."

So they put him in a tank. His face blistered so badly that eight
years later it was still pockmarked.
