Hitchhiking's more of a challenge on the road less travelled.
Not really, joe. Those who attend the meatloaf dinners are from various locations in Pattaya including Jomtien and downtown Pattaya. While those who were part of the fictitious Army where fewer in number and lived closer to the downtown Pattaya area. No different than any other group of friends who would regularly congregate on a regular basis.
I sometimes wondered if some of them were ex-military, who served in the Vietnam war, and never went home. Or fell in love with SE Asia, and returned when their military service ended. Pure speculation on my part.

I only know of one man who served in Vietnam who now lives part time in Pattaya. Likely there are more.

He probably told the boys that he was a 4 Star General cleaner in the US Army.
To someone with basic English that would sound great.
I seem to recall seeing a sign at the big round table at the front of All of Me "Reserved for The Barmy Army"
It used to say VIPs in The Corner Bar. I know...beggars belief.
