Hey Cab Man

[Bruce Cohen]

Cab,

Here's something to go with your beer coasters (the ones I know nothing about).



Ah the good old (bad old) days, or so I've been told.

My necklace (the one from small animal vertebrae caught and killed) I gave away as a gesture. "Biến không thŕnh có, biến khó thŕnh dễ".

Cab,

Very profound saying grasshopper, try this one on (sorry for the lack of diacritics, I don't have the energy to figure out the right key combinations on my Mac) "Ong khong bi bac oai", and if you believe it, I know of a bridge for sale.

Round three of name this object:

You don't see these too often.

You're right, only "never" seen one, at a distance.

De sung yuong.

Your Vietspeak is very good, I can't talk about mine, which I have no knowledge of.

Time to play name that collection object:

It looks like a commemorative occupation patch/pin. This is not really my forte.
Way too many from that era.

But, this one should be easy for you: Sự huấn luyện chuyên dụng cao

The only VN I know is, "you no number one GI, you number ten."

What's this number one? The Big Red 1? You're 101st. Thought the Screamin' Eagle would get in on this.

[L. D. Jeffries]

To be called "number one" meant you were really OK, but if you were "Number 10" then you had better "dedde mou", cause you were a "no good"!

I'm just foolin' with Steve. Actually #10 is more like gă xấu.

Yo Cab,

Your last patch was not fair, school patches, along with special training are not part of the game.

Nguoi dan ong khong cua danh du nao.

What you couldn't get was a Challenge Coin from MAC V SOG, but I wouldn't know that.

Here's a new one (including #1):

Talk about what's fair, you are getting even with throwing this one in. I'm not even up to snuff on Army patches and you throw in this Marine patch for the 1st Marine Recon Battalion.

There can be a difference in the intended wording on a patch as in your avatar. With diacritics, "Ready To Die" could be one. Another, with different ones could mean "Drink Up".

Without diacritics, Cho toi coi can cuoc ong could mean "To order to die" or something like that.

BTW, is Boris related to Zelda?

[Bruce Cohen]

One day you'll have to tell me how to find the diacritics (I'm on a Mac), so you'll be able to enjoy some old phrases and words of wisdom.

The translation is–––"Show me your I.D. Card". Now, isn't that SPECIAL.

And there are some jarheads that are members, you don't hear from them too often as they keep using their keyboards for target pratice. You know, the first one to shoot out the letters A R M Y, wins a Ba Moi Ba, warm, just like the old days.

Bruce

BTW,

Zelda is Boris' illegitimate uncle (Wha?)
