The Strangest Experience I've Ever Had in My Life

The crew chief was shot dead and submerged in a rice paddy 10 miles from the crash site. The squad leader said to me in English, so Rinda, no kill. And he raised both his arms over his head. My left arm was tied to my body. He shot me at point blank range right through the left shoulder. They ripped off my dog tags and I had a medallion on and my dad had given me that had a star of David on one side and a Saint Christopher's medal on the other. So that was my captivity.
