on this. I'm assuming it takes place in 'Nam

Wrong. Laos. Sorry.
Ngyuen chuckled, and motioned for his

disassembled rocket pipes into the jeep. "A
better choice than
that guy made. He'll be lucky if he gets out

{This may be an anachronism; webpage says 1959,
this seems to be
mid-60s, and shoulder-fired SAMs weren't
available, let alone common,
until the late 70s, if memory serves. SAMs of
the time were about the
size of telephone poles, and deployed and
operated by many men and
trucks. Unguided rockets would be
jeep-portable, but would have a very
low hit probability against an aircraft. Then
again, this IS the
Ranmaverse, where unrealistic things happen
every day... :) }
Like you said this is Rammaverse, if Ramma was on that
plane, and someone shot a missle at it, with great
chace for choas and adventure, how could it miss?
Gamma attract less choas than this son, but not by
much.
