A buddy of mine was in Korea, at night when the US troops would come in from the battle, the Turks would be heading out. To sneak up on the Koreans and slit their throats, my buddy said in the morning they would come in covered in blood.

Don't you know some Hmongs who could do the job for us? We wouldn't ask too many questions.

Those Hmongs and Montagnards who have been allowed into the US are doing their share.

I don't work with Hmong, but they are there.

I do work with the Montagnard community.
Presently 35 Montagnards are serving. One was recently discharged after a tour in Iraq and Afghan. At least 150 more have visited recruiters and are waiting to complete high school before enlisting.

My brother fought in Korea and his unit was stationed next to a Turkish unit. He came back with INCREDIBLE stories about the Turks. For one thing, he said the Turks prefer to fight with long knives. Every night they would leave their trenches, sneak up on the chinese and cut as many throats as they oould. It was sort of like taking SCALPS and they did it FOR FUN not for strategic advantage. I could write volumes about the stories he told me about the Turks. jdn
