This chapter opens with his new Amigo Fidel out for the night. John got a good look at what life South of the border was really like. The women in Panama had escaped countries where brutal dictators reigned supreme. Dictators, we more than likely put in place.
These women had lost everyone in their families. Some were single moms. While prostitution itself was illegal in Panama, getting paid to "entertain" gringo soldiers was common. This place could've been a Nevada Brothel. If the women got paid a bit more in private for sex then they kept their mouths shut. John was informed that the 'Import' department dealt with that. There was a little commotion between a soldier and waitress which the bouncer dealt with promptly.
