What i do not like is the unexpected ones as i have really never got over things that go bang or BOOM . After getting hit twice by shrapnel from Mortar rounds and once from a RPG and shot once when things go bang or BOOM i still want to dive for cover . The first night back home from Nam i had gone to bed in MY OWN bed for the first time in a year and about andf hour after i was asleep the fire siren went off , Well over in Nam at the one base camp they had a radar unit that would pick up a mortaqr round as soon as it cleared the trees and a siren would go off . IF you were fast enough you could make it to a bunker before the round hit . Ya got good with all the practice we got as for about three months each and every night we got hit usually around 1-2 in the morning and it would last till 4-6 as they would set up many tubes in different areas and each would shoot off four or five rounds and move to a new spot and do it again. And once the Tet offensive started I was under fire almost every day for 8 weeks. So yea i am a bit shell shocked . So when that siren went off i came out of bed and out the door and was standing in the ft. yard screaming IN COMING and looking for a bunker to dive into in my skivvees . Yea that was fun with all the neighbors looking at this nut case . I started dating a fine young girl and went put her up on the 4th for a date and as we were waking to my brand new Road Runner and both of us all dressed up for a evening out the neighbor kid threw a fire cracked under one of the cars in the drive and i dove for cover with my date and we were both eating grass. Sure glad her dad was a WW2 vet as he knew what it was like . Now Judy on the other had was a bit upset with me as she now had grass stains on her nice white slacks.
