<font color='#0000FF'>Whilst attached to the US Marines in Saudi back in 93 they &quot;accidently&quot; dropped a bomb on our/their camp from a F-16.

The entire area (3km) was evacuated leaving only skeleton manning. I was a singley at the time, with no kids and volunteered to stay with the kit whilst everyone else evac'd.

Upon the all clear being given, everyone returned to duty. An american general then proceeded to award the skeleton crews with medals (freely available from their stores). Couldn't wear the feckin thing, so I sold swapped mine with a &nbsp;grunt for a nice camp bed.

No wonder these guys have so many of the damn things, apparently they get one for flying over Northern Ireland too!

At least we had the comfort of finding out that the bomb wasn't dropped but rather fell off!

Yanks are all hot dogs n coke IMHO
