What a picture. Thanks. I hesitate to ask how your unit "acted as speedbumps". But I sure like the picture of that Big Muddy number.

I went up the Mekong in a long tail boat as far as Burma a few years back, the high point of a visit to Thailand; the Cambodian side was populated with very ragged fisherfolk, with none of the development in evidence on the Thai side; the lil brown kids would gallop along the bank and even swim out to the boat in spite of the risk, to get some pennies or sugar candies from the tourists going upstream.

Amazing area, amazing people, and still haunted with the memories of vilent times.

Thanks for the pictures. :>)
