This is a piece putting Bond at the Fall Of Saigon...
FREQUENT FIREHe fired his pistol as the Vietnamese family climbed onto the helicopter. James Bond fired three times more at some Bonzai attackers, laced with debris from trees, grass, and sticks.
“Get on now!” Bond screamed over the helicopters propellers.
The family did so as another group came forward.
Bond fired again.
“Get the hell on, now!!!”
Bond suddenly awoke in his bed back in London. Sweat rolled down his chest and face as sat up. He slowly rubbed his drowsy eyes, “what time is it?” Bond murmured to himself. He turned to his clock:
03:00am.
Soon he would have to get up, three hours from now. This was the first time since he got back from Saigon that he’d had a flashback.
That notion made him think of the first time he was transferred to a North Vietnamese military base with some other SAS men.
“C’mon, c’mon, let’s go, go!” Lt. Colonel Brae said as he took one last drag on his cigar before he threw it at a prisoner. The prisoner reacted strange, he seemed to be used to it.
“Get your weapons ready. Lock’n load!”
Bond walked over to the weapon table. Most of the guns were American, M-16s, and older Thompson machine guns, along with M11 Pistols.
Bond grabbed an M-16 and a pistol. He swiftly loaded the weapon and headed over the briefing.
“As you heard, the Americans are surrounded in Saigon,” said General Varsity.
“They need our help evacuating the villagers. We are to provide cover for the helicopters flying them out. Lt. Colonel Miller and Commander Bond will be leading this operation. Are there any questions?”
The men all ran over to the helicopters. Bond and Miller quickly greeted each other and jumped into the choppers.
The helicopter consisted of two American Pilots and two gunners on the side. Bond smacked his neck to kill the mosquitoes eating his flesh.
The helicopters landed thirty minutes later under heavy fire. Bond and Miller quickly jumped off and fired their weapons at the machine gun nests 20 meters away.
Tears ran down Bond’s cheeks as he stood up from his bedside. He rubbed his eyes again hoping the pain would go away, but it was useless.
James Bond showered and dressed himself.
He started his Bentley car and held himself to stop shaking, fearing that he would die in a massacre in Vietnam. But the war was over long ago…
