Another option for Haibane if still looking for ideas ... perhaps a Member of Parliament, maybe even a very new and inexperienced MP, looking to make a name for herself by going to Vietnam and confronting Gen. Westmorland on issues pertaining to Australia's involvement in the conflict.  Though I still have no idea what's going to happen plot wise, it might put her in the interesting position of being the senior member of her government present in the area.<br/><br/>As for my character, I actually have a very specific sort of person in mind.  He's actually inspired by Donald Sutherland's character "Oddball" in the movie Kelley's Heroes.  Though the character was something of an anachronism in the movie's WW2 setting, he would be perfectly at home in Vietnam in the 60's.<br/><br/>If you're not familiar with the movie, here's a sample.  Enjoy:<br/><br/>Kelly's Heroes Oddball - Negative Waves (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuStsFW4EmQ#)<br/>
