After having been in Vietnam just over two months, and having just pulled an extra shift the night before, Erin and Darlene were more than glad to enjoy the first taste of Erin's crafting.

Darlene had managed to find two standard cups in the supply shed, which Erin was slowly pouring the gin in.

They both hastily grabbed their drinks and sipped a mouthful before both of them nearly spit it up in a hack of coughing.

Darlene placed a hand on her chest and sat her cup on the table, "That's a lot stronger than I expected."

Erin nodded, "remember last month when it was my birthday?"

"Yeah, you turned twenty-one, did you forget already?"

"You remember the red wine you shared with me?"

"Yeah."

Erin chuckled and sat her cup next to Darlene's. "Well I think this beats the red wine any day," she said, pointing to the cup.

The two both grabbed their drinks again and sat down next to one another on Erin's cot. They slowly sipped the gin until they found themselves with empty cups. Erin thought that the still would be a great treat for her and Darlene after working hours in OR. But there was one thing that she didn't think about. And she was at the door.

Jo pushed open the wooden door, only to be presented with her two bunk mates sitting together, having just drank gin from their still on the table. Jo had to get a second look at the table before she realized.

They had a still now.

"W-what is this! I leave for a day to work my ass off at an aid station, and I come back to this?!"

Darlene looked up to Jo, who was angrily pointing at the still. "Don't blow your top off, we'll share the drinks with you."

"I want you to take it down! Now!"

"It's not doing anything to bother you," Darlene replied.

"This is unacceptable, of course it bothers me!"

Erin leaned over and placed her empty cup next to the still. "The still isn't going anywhere!"

"Well then, I'll just have to take it down myself."

Both Erin and Darlene jumped to their feet and stood in front of the still, blocking it from Jo's path.

"You touch our still and you won't be happy to see what you find under your pillow tonight!" Erin said as threateningly as she could.

"Alright, I'll just have Colonel Dayton come and take it down for me," Jo said, giving them a mocking grin as she made her way back out the door. "We'll just see how glad he'll be to hear about this!"
