An airstrike is viewed by an audience gathered on the rooftop of an officer's hotel in Saigon. The scene here is taken within the city limits while Colonel McDermott (then a junior officer) was passing through Saigon during a Rest and Relaxation trip and not from the 327th Infantry's battle during the Tet Offensive.
Note the contrast of war often mentioned by visiting members of the press who treated the violence with an almost businesslike 9-5 formality. While the war raged just beyond the horizon one could watch the events unfold from a comfortable seat in the spectator's section. Pictured here a jer aircraft has just released its payload as it streaks right to left across the image. The rising smoke from the explosion can be seen at the photo's far-right and the nonchalant attitude of the audience can also be witnessed by the cool persona of the men gathered. Note the man leaning bck in his chair to the lower-center of the photo. The relaxed nature of the audience reflects the monotony of the dramatic airstrike as it appears each of the people pictured has seen this before and the novelty no longer exists.
A hard and awkward difference between field soldiers and those who experienced the war from the safe confines of the rear strongholds was mentioned by Colonel McDermott at this point and he referenced those rear personnel as "REMFs" or "Rear Echelon MotherFuckers" a common insult used by the Jungle Grunts to describe the difference between the two.
"They were just from different worlds." The Colonel remarked. "It was as though one was from a rural, agricultural community and the other from a large urban center and neither knew anything of the other. You just couldn't bridge that gap. Different worlds."

A section of Saigon burns after an airstrike landed within the city limits during the Tet Offensive. This section of the city is most probably part of the Cholon district, the Chinese portion of the capitol city where the 2nd Battalion, 327th Infantry fought during the offensive in January/February, 1968.
Note the cramped confines of the living conditions and the flames which give insight into the ferocious fighting the urban area experienced.
