Some of those damn kids thought it was a game, until they damn near bought the farm. They really didn't take it seriously, that the guys with the SKS's, and the AK-47's weren't nice to Uncle Sams guys in Tiger Stripe Camo.

It's all fun and games until someone sets off a Bouncing Betty. :P I read about those. It sounds like a nasty little booby trap, along with all of the other goodies they had. :roll: I imagine stuff like that alone must have been a reality check for them, sans people shooting at you.

7.62X39 Rounds do make a whizzing sound as the speed by you. I won't even get into Toe Poppers, and all that fun stuff. The main thing that was good to watch out for, other than Charlie, tripwires. Tiger Traps were sometimes popular as well.

Because all you wanted was a mango, and they have to pull that crap. :P

Good thing I didn't, and don't like mangos.

Yeah, it's also probably not the best idea to drop acid when there's incoming, as well. :P I'm assuming that actually didn't happen, did it? I know you probably had stuff like Thai stick around, but I couldn't imagine someone doing that, especially while in combat. Talk about having a bad trip. :roll:

Paul, you give the dumb MFkers of the planet too much credit for having the sense the good Lord gave to a rock. It was hard to tell at times who was flying. When everything started to hit the fan, all I knew was I had the 14, or the 12GA. Remington.

I suppose the .45 was for when those were out, and it's that, or harsh language? I can't imagine anyone in that situation doing something like that. They would have been lucky if they didn't get killed, or made it back in one piece. The one thing I know, is none of the veterans I've talked to that were there never talked about being like that, but that's probably a good reason that they were around in the first place.

That was definitely for Hollywood, and the movie. But you are right about me, I would've stayed in the boat.

Yeah, getting back to the Roger Waters Precision, it's definitely discontinued. I typed it in to see if there was any available (maybe used on eBay,) and there's the archive page on Fender, which states notify me when in stock, and Sweetwater, and Musician's Friend, which both state that it's no longer available. So who knows what's up with that? I guess if you want one, you'll have to look for used, or modify a black P Bass with a maple board to look like his.

I don't want another one, but it's too bad they are no longer available. Just a really nice Precision.

Yeah, they'd certainly would fit the bill for the type of Precision that I'd like.
