One of our LTs was a sick dude. He orderd us to cut off the heads of some dead VC that walked into our ambush. I didn't take part. Our Machine gunner cut one off with his mashettie and put it on his sholder, He said "look, two heads are better than one" We took the heads with us and through them away down the trail somewhere, It was a superstition that they couldn't go to heaven unless there head was attached? I just thought it was sick. but like most things that went on, you just didn't say anything. Our interperetor was going to start a ear neclkless, he cut one off, and the LT made him through it away.
