When Johnny Comes Drooling Home
</hdr><body>
<p>By David Ellis/Reported by Daniel S. Levy

<p> The Pentagon is worried about all the pent-up, hell-raising
energy among soldiers who have been stationed in the gulf for
the past seven months. Demobilized troops, before they once
again encounter freely available sex and alcohol, will be put
through a moral vaccination program that has been dubbed
"libido re-entry." Forces leaving the area will be bombarded
with a series of public-health messages emphasizing safe sex
and responsible drinking habits. In Oceanside, Calif., near the
Camp Pendleton Marine base, authorities will advise returning
grunts about how they can avoid street scams. "We expect that
every hooker and con artist who can get here will prey on these
guys," says a spokesman, "because they've got all this money
saved up."
