Tater. can you check out shotguns from special services? When I was in Korea at Osan, we used to go over to Suwon to hunt pheasants. it was no problem to fill up the back of a half ton Ford pick up truck with camper shell to the roof with pheasants in just a few hours. We'd have the houseboys clean them and have one hell of a Bar-B Que. On one outing I got a snow goose. It was close to Christmas so our detachment has a goose dinner for Christmas. (I shot it on the 23rd of december. Couldn't ask for better timing. Supposedly there was some hunting for IIRC, Roe Deer just about 30 miles south of the 38th parallel although I never did get up that way. I still have my Korean hunting license which IIRC cost me $5.00. This was back in 1963/64. DAMN! That was 46 years ago. Guess things have changed quite a bit since I was there. We had tensions as well, especially the day President Kennedy was shot. It was the middle of the night for use and we ended up walking the perimeter with M2 carbines and full magazines. it was a nervous night, I can tell you that. Awfully chilly too.
