Description
RAAF clerk, 221047 Leading Aircraftman (LAC) Ronald Gordon (Ron) Sorby, of Manly, NSW, has a willing helper in this small Vietnamese monkey, who lives on the airfield at Vung Tau, South Vietnam. The monkey has no name and no one knows who owns him; he just drops in to almost anywhere on the base, for a little monkey business and then after creating sufficient confusion, discreetly retires to another office, with the words “B………VC monkey”, (VC is Viet Cong) shouted after him.
