Pioneer 'Ditty Bags' Hit the Target First Brigade Red Cross "ditty bags" hit the target in the Republic of Vietnam. Airman First Class Robert N. Johnson, a recipient of a "ditty bag," wrote a letter to the Pioneers acknowledging the arrival of the Red Cross gifts. Johnson, an airman at Cam Ranh Air Base, had this to say: 3 Dec 1967 "Dear Officers and Men: Yesterday we had a squadron party and your gifts ("ditty bags") were passed out to all of the troops. There were so many that there were two for everyone. I surely appreciate your thoughtfulness and kindness. I'm not much for writing letters, in fact, if there hadn't been this BIC pen (ball point pen in "ditty bag") I probably wouldn't be writing this (ha ha). I'm an airman at Cam Ranh Air Base and believe me it's really gonna be a long year, but with your blessing and thoughtfulness I'm sure I'll pull through . . ."
