Attention: ITT and CI Regt
29 June 1965
Woman approached L/Cpl. Dixon’s machine gun position and would not leave. She acted sick, bite her tongue often, pointed at white scarf around her head and gold chain with red packet on it around her neck. She was wearing a blue blouse, black pajama pants. She had a picture of another woman in a purse which she put in the sand and covered up. This woman acted sick all the time. I tried to find out what she wanted, she pointed to the helo’s that flew over like she wanted in them or something. Enclosed is some writing she wrote on three pieces of paper. I personally think she wanted to take on all hands, at a price. Please advise on this. She was young and fair looking.
