We woke to airbeds almost floating in waterThe next night we spent in sleeping bags, wedged into Corbeau bucket seats in my Mini.


LOL, I spent 40 straight wet days in a monsoon season 100 yards up a beach from the South China Sea, with gale force winds that occasionally blew my helicopter over on its side. We had a tent, in what can only be described as a mudbog, that blew off into a rice paddy somewhere every night. My gunner and I stayed wet the whole 40 days. We took every opportunity to call the pilots pansies (actually, a bit harsher name which also starts with a "p") for sleeping in a sandbagged bunker...on cots...Pretty sure I'm not the only ex-forces type on here rolling their eyes and sniggering at the softies. We used to live in a hole in the ground etc.
