Re: Security guards with "BHQ" on uniforms
Yep, J57. I was a fiery peacenik battling the cops on the streets, fighting our own little chapter of the US/Indochina war back in the early '70's. And in 1975 i made my own little private trip to one almost forgotten corner of that terrible atrocity - to see it for myself.
But i a long longtime ago made my peace with the boys in boots - and those in Ho Chi Minh sandals too.
The more history i read the greater my respect increases, and sorrow, and rage, and wonder - at all they had to endure.
I am currently mid way through watching the excellent PBS series The Vietnam War (released 2017 i think).
It is generally pretty US-centric, but gives wonderful insight into the life and realities of the soldiers on both sides.
I know this territory pretty well, but i never get tired of listening to those kids, and watching in shock, horror and awe at what they went though.
'Can't say much for their bosses tho'.

They used to carry the guns in black canvas bags. What happened?
