Doctor's Office
ALSO ON MASTER # 968. This film appears to be a copy of a copy of a copy etc. due to the size and type of graininess. The soundtrack is also very difficult to understand but there is enough to be able to deduce that a husband and wife visit a doctor's office where the wife has a scheduled "examination". There is no opening title, just a humorous exchange of what are supposed to be flirtatious glances between the husband and the nurse/receptionist. When the wife meets with the doctor, the husband and the nurse don't waste a moment. While they are having sex, the doctor performs his examination on the wife which is a brief prelude to their sexual encounter. At the end, all four are in the waiting area where the wife embraces her husband and the doctor gives a knowing wink to the camera. There is some dialogue here but it is hard to understand. The music throughout the film sounds like it was composed for a cartoon and is a pretty odd contrast to the graphic sex acts performed.

POW Exchange
Footage of a POW exchange between the North Vietnamese Army (NVA) and the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) during the Vietnam War in 1973. The NVA POW in red pajamas appear disgraced and many are injured, while the ARVN POWs as they are freed they appear in good health and are celebratory.
Tet Offensive
Apparently part of the Tet Offensive (30 January-29 February 1968) launched by North Vietnam. This is a low-intensity conflict being fought on what looks to be the outskirts of an urban area. A few U.S. and South Vietnamese troops are firing, but we never really see their targets. Not a full-blown firefight but definitely combat.)
