Believe it or not, Soldier magazine used to have pin-ups on the back inside cover.

I saw a few of them around some of the air bases in SEA but I think it pretty much disappeared along with the draft circa mid-70s. IIRC, it was more tabloid/muck-raking than the 'Stars and Lies' sold in the PX/BX. There were also a number of 'underground' pubs back then which were oriented towards the EM and draftees vs the officer and lifer types.
The old 'Veritas' put out by JFKCENMA also had a pinup inside the back cover of every issue back then...along with the Vargas-like Gretta the Green Beret pics.

And Connie in the PM magazine wore hotpants and a loose butttoned down shirt (tied in a knot at the midriff). She was apparantly a "libber" and wherever she went, she was always cold!  Then she came back from Vietnam and got "respectable"  And I, too, remember going to the FoxHole . . . I remember going more often then leaving!

In true groundbreaker style, there was an awful lot i learned about photography and the nature of a provocative image from her and her shooters. Study the greats and implement(steal) what you can.

Oh, yes. Connie Rod. She was hot and drawn in the Will Eisner style he used for his 'Spirit' comics. FWIW, the reason I used to fly PSA was the stews wearing those hot pants and white vinyl go-go boots. That was dromedary phalanges heavan.

So....MSCP.......what's it gonna be?
I just realized that 2008 in the Chinese Calendar is the Year of the Rat. Seeing the Barry got elected, it seems fitting, so to honor Barry I'll post up MY Rat.
