A clean comb.....

There was a Vietnamese woman who was may have been raped and the MP's brought in a GI might has been the one who did it. The way they were going to determine if he did it or not was to comb through his pubic hair and gather hairs. Then those would be looked at to determine if any of those hairs were her's. I remember the search for a brand new, never used, comb. I believe they got one from a Red Cross that goes to new patients or GI's needing personal items. Then there was a request for a volunteer within the ER for someone to go in and comb his pubic hair and gather any loose hairs for testing. Not sure of the outcome but it was such a strange course of events....and it was hard for me to take in or understand. Not sure if it was just my immaturity of things or just the situation and events that transpired that night. I seem to remember this young GI who was quiet and just did as he was asked and who looked scared. Who wouldn't be especially if innocent.
