MarPep User ID: 75752832 United States 10/26/2017 02:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've never quite understood those figures. A big croc would be happy with one soldier in its jaws--or even half a soldier. To lose 1000 soldiers would require at least 1000 crocs. If the swamp was 5-10 miles across, I guess that would be possible. There are also places where bull sharks and crocs occupy the same waters. _______________ They let me off with a warning and a couple of bullet holes. |

Minnie Kitty User ID: 14781057 United States 10/26/2017 03:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | wow its true.. do an internet search. That night [of the 19 February 1945] was the most horrible that any member of the M. L. [motor launch] crews ever experienced. The scattered rifle shots in the pitch black swamp punctured by the screams of wounded men crushed in the jaws of huge reptiles, and the blurred worrying sound of spinning crocodiles made a cacophony of hell that has rarely been duplicated on earth. At dawn the vultures arrived to clean up what the crocodiles had left.... Of about one thousand Japanese soldiers that entered the swamps of Ramree, only about twenty were found alive.  Wright[11] |
