Blunt, I've got your story beat.

A buddy of mine was house-sitting offbase for his NCOIC while the guy and his wife were on leave stateside. I was offbase one Friday night at the guys house. It happened to be Good Friday. Evidently, Filipinos are very fond of fireworks on holidays. The place sounded like the Fourth of July. We were sitting on the front porch of this house lighting off these badass triangular firecrackers along with everyone else on the street. This local cop wanders up and pulls his gun on Joe (my buddy) and I. I should add that the cop is smoking a joint. He is trying to tell us something but he's speaking to us in Tagalog (the local gibberish). This little kid walks by while Joe and I are watching the snubnose .38 wave back and forth and offers to translate. The kid tells us that fireworks are illegal and cop has to bring us to the station downtown. He had to yell this to us over the din of the fireworks. We were always warned about getting taken downtown...it was a bad place (think Turkish prison). My buddy, thinking fast, asked the cop if we could pay our "fine" right away. This sounded like a wonderful idea to the cop so he holstered his heater and continued on his merry way for all the money in our wallets. IIRC he got about $35.

I hope that place rots.

DEP'd into the AF in 2000, no record of service. Seriously, they lost my records. I apparently have to only copy of my DD-214 in existence.
