Spectator Sport Cricket Fight

Jim Puhala Photo

The kids would stage cricket fights. They’d get a couple of crickets, rile them up by jabbing them with twigs and let them go after each other.
This photo was taken at Song Mau. We spent a lot of time there - waiting. We’d put out a recon patrol in the morning. They’d recon for a while; if they didn’t find anything, we’d pick them up and put them someplace else. If they did find something, we’d do a CA.
