Wounded Toes and Stolen Boots

 On our way to Viet Nam I had my big toes nails surgically removed. I had to take a shower sitting down to prevent my toes from getting wet. I wore sandals for about a month. When I was ordered to wear my boots again. I couldn't find them. They had been stolen.
When we pulled into the Philippines, I purchased a new pair and I carved mushrooms into the heals in such a way that would allow me to hide the mushrooms when standing at attention. These boots did not get stolen.
