More with Chris Munyeh on C.B.S., pulling pins from bombs on range, having a mayor at Slab City (Putt-Putt), breaking the law by swimming in canal when temperature is 120, military war games as entertainment. Audio & video are both good during this tape as Munyeh and his family offer a unique perspective on life at Slab City.
