    THE SILENT BULLET

    Taken home from the Vietnam War killing guys years later. This is true and from the Veterans Affairs Agency in the U.S. which some might find interesting:

    Well, that's me needing to get checked - Three years in Vietnam, and I've recently had a liver cyst biopsied.

    I did three tours as well. Maybe I should get tested, but I feel my agent orange ailments will take me out first so I'm passing on it. I don't need to be concerned with another issue.
    As for fish, I've never eaten any that was raw. All those sushi nuts can have it. Even though not all sushi has raw fish, I've never tried it, no reason to start now.
