Heard stories during the Eisenhower years that the toilet paper situation of bringing the empty tube for a replacement was standard. Kunsan in 1959, the toilet paper was a sore subject because Osan had it, but wouldn't share it with the folks down country. Heard of stories from 1960s at Suwon where there was no toilet paper at all and newspapers from home were treasured items.

While at Bien Hoa in Vietnam we had no toilet paper. The cardboard tube had to be presented to get a new role. However as the Airforce always ate well, we were able to trade several pallets of frozen steaks with Long Bin for a large number of pallets of toilet paper. Its hard to imagine today, that I think we got the better end of the deal at the time. The more things change the more they remain the same. While at Bien Hoa in Vietnam we had no toilet paper.
