<p>[QUOTE=&quot;longnine009, post: 24897443, member: 1886&quot;]He was a Marine gunship pilot in Vietnam who flew off an aircraft carrier. In one of his books&nbsp; he tells how, when Nixon went off the gold standard,&nbsp; he wanted to get some gold. So, he flew to some village in Vietnam where a woman there sold gold. He was haggling with her over the price when he got word that the ground he landed on was too soft and the helicopter was starting to sink in. He and the guy he was with left in hurry and they flew back to the carrier.</p><p><br /></p><p>On the carrier he was told that he would have been arrested if he had brought gold on the ship as it was illegal for Americans to own.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
