Spent some time in Bucharest last year - didn't see any of that, not that I was looking for it. Don't know where they were hiding the homeless kids, as we covered a lot of territory. Actually had a great time there in the company of an old C/75 Ranger, we met some great people. Maybe it's in the res...

As usual, the Pastor hit it on the nose. Not sure if I'm the oldest guy here (know I gotta be close), but I've had the good fortune to see how the system has evolved.

Whiling away the last days here before retiring, I stumbled across this thread.

I'm sure some RVN Rangers will be along soon to correct me (and you).
