[QUOTE="pauly250, post: 55052, member: 523"] Thats true about the leaches,in 1994 i spent 5 months at Pulada jungle training centre in Malaysia with 5/7th infantry battalion and we mostly slept between rubber tree,s in hammocks,some how the leeches still made their way to us,affected some guys more than others,we were told that the individuals skin acid type will result in the attraction variance. Some guys that just pulled them off had recieved bad infections as the teeth stayed inbedded ,we were told to use our zip lighters or salt to remove them. Real jungles are a hard arse place to deal when it comes to insects,thank god there was no enemy to deal with [/QUOTE]
