Door glass fell out....

Literally just brought home my "new" camper today, and it's already falling apart :S

It's a 1973 Amerigo truck camper (I know there's a truck camper forum, but this one was "vintage", so I thought this might fit better here), and the glass on the entry door...well, fell out today.

It appears that it was merely glued in with a hard, yet pliable, caulking on both sides of the glass. Is this the way things were done back then, or was this a prior owner quick fix?

Should I just clean out all the old adhesive, and reapply caulking in there to hold it? I was thinking of using something like silicone adhesive in there too.
