    He was from a little village that had no electricity. We slept in grass hut on straw. That was back in 1997. Man that's over 10 years ago time flies. Yes we do need enlightenment!

    He was armed due to his job at the time when off base due to hostiles ect in the area but he never asked what was in front of him he just ate it, never asked what he drank, he said he learned the hardway in japan.

    Some bad critters roam those forest floors I tell you what.

    I'm arachniadphobic (spiders) and they were all over the place including being served for "dinner". Actually they don't taste bad after all they're related to crabs. I woke up with a 3 foot iguagna (? spelling bad) next to me.

    Snakes don't bother me after owning a 14 ft Boa but there was quite a few roaming (basking) around I just didn't like the "bugs". Yes you had to sleep with a net or get bit by something while asleep.
