A close Marine buddy that I have helped readjusting into civilian life, has givin me some unique gifts or artifacts. First is some sand "more like lava rock" from they Island of Iwo Jima. I asked him how the hell did you end up there, he said he was on his way to Japan and the captain said OK you school girls we are going on a field trip, we are stopping here to remind you in case you have forgotten why you volunteered. He then says to the captain "can you do that sir" to which he responded "I am the captain I will do as I FN please"
2nd Is the rag off the head of an infidel that he took as a trophy. "he has several" They had him cornered but he had taken a little girl as a hostage and had a knife to her throat. And he was telling me that sometimes they take one last victim since they never intend on surrendering, So my buddy with his uncanny ability to shoot from the hip with his M16, let him have a short burst and hit him right under the jaw, to which he fell where he stood. He insisted that I had to wipe my feet on it before he gave it to me which I obliged.
