Vietnam War Documentary: Hamburger Hill, an Underground Zine, & a $10000 Bounty for Col Honeycutt

'GI Says' was a hand printed magazine, published on a mimeograph machine at Camp Evans near the DMZ, which Included a controversial rumored 'bounty' of $10000 to kill 'Blackjack', aka Col. Wendell Honeycutt, commander of the Hamburger Hill Operation ...'GI Says' (working title) is a #Vietnamwar #documentary of the only known underground antiwar publication printed in Vietnam during the war (*at Camp Evans, Vietnam) to be distributed by an active duty soldier/publisher.

Veteran and long time journalist Ken Anderberg relates his experience serving at Camp Evans near the DMZ in the Vietnam War. It was there that he created and published the underground magazine - or 'zine' - 'GI Says' as a response to the controversial leadership of Col, Weldon Honeycutt at the recently concluded operations at Hill 937, aka 'Hamburger Hill'.

Following the conclusion of operations against Hill 937 (aka Hamburger Hill) many GIs ('grunts') expressed dissatisfaction with Honeycutt and other higher echelon leadership which resulted in an inordinate number of casualties for little or no tangible gain. Many GIs subsequently articulated a desire to 'frag' Honeycutt (i.e., kill him with a fragmentation grenade). This sentiment among GIs found its way into 'GI Says' in the form of an impromptu Wanted poster with a $10,000 'bounty' for 'Blackjack' (which was the call sign for Col. Honeycutt). The publication of that bounty, even as truthful reportage, famously nearly ended up sending its author to Leavenworth federal penitentiary...if not for an amazing and lucky twist of fate.
