Aden, Little Aden, another stinking fly infested hole.
Even the kids carried weapons, longs mostly, and mostly AK's.
Always firing the damned things in the air.
Wonder people werent dropping like flies with all that fmj coming down.
bod's on the side of the road into the town were just left there.
the place stunk.
Left there and went to Ruanda (The first time) place wasn't too bad.
very colonial.
People were friendly, but so many crippled beggars on the streets.
Pestered wherever you went by the beggars and the kids.
we used to fill our pockets with small change and throw a handfull just to get rid of them for five minutes.
Lobito in angola was the worst.
That's where I took a blade to the shoulder.
Broke the guys arm and ran like hell.
We were dug in at a hotel for two days before they smuggled us out.
Never ever going back to that rat hole.
Gangsters in Europe and the states have got nothing on the kids in the war torn states of Africa.
There they think nothing of killing an entire family just to prove a point or to take a bag of maize.
People starve over there and they give the kids AK's and full clips for free.
no food just weapons. what do they expect the kids to do, swap the weapon for food. Yeah right.
