Default Re: Vietnam vets reluctant to tell war stories..

Wasn't no pond. It was an artificial stream. Watched those goddamn Carp
from the walking bridge a couple of times. Some folks call them Koi and
charge thousands of dollars for one, but they are still just Carp to me.

Hawaii...yep. You brought back those memories !

I've been though it 6 times, but never seen the Fish
Pond in that Terminal again. I guess it was shown
