Greetings Godless Heathen Sodomites.

There wasn't a civil war in Cambodia in the early 1990s.  Care to clarify?

Also, could you explain why speaking Thai would help you get posted to Cambodia, where Thai isn't spoken?

Easy to say sitting back in good ole USA, smoking pot, growing your hair long and bad mouthing people sent over there to protect your way of life.

There wasn't a civil war in Cambodia in the early 1990s. 

There wasn't? ......I didn't get the message. Try telling these guys with blown off legs.

It would also have been nice to let the RCAF (Royal Cambodian Armed Forces) know there wasn't a civil war. May have been difficult though, they were busy fighting for survival against Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge crazy genocidal killers. (Killing Fields).


btw, the spicy tart in the background was my girlfriend. I was taking her on a date and stopped for a drink.  Unfortunately, she is dead. (later)

 Care to clarify?

No. Unless you were in the military, we don't have anything in common. I am not interested in what you read in the newspapers or watched in the movies. I am not interested in telling war stories or impressing anyone. Just stating fact.

Also, could you explain why speaking Thai would help you get posted to Cambodia, where Thai isn't spoken?

Who said speaking Thai gets you posted to Cambodia? If no one in our unit spoke the native language, we would get an interpreter. I was assigned Thai. In Thailand, i spoke Thai.
