« There was a general in that camp Amy, and he would starve the prisonners. Lin Duk ku just sneaked 'em food… He risked his life doing it cause if General Chow had caught him, he would've killed him. »
Murdock's confession was followed by an awkward silence. Hannibal looked at his captain with a suprised look. He was not used to hearing Murdock speak willingly of war memories, especially not when these memories were related to the POW. There was one thing he knew for sure though : everytime Mudock did so, it was a sign his captain was not doing too good.
BA broke the silence :
« Yeah it's Lin duk ku all right. »
Amy had never really asked the guys about their experience in Nam. Once, when she was sitting in the plane next to Face as they were flying back from Mexico, she had tried to engage a conversation with Face about how he had come to meet Hannibal and the others. All she had managed to find out was that they used to be a special unit for the US Army when they were in Nam, but the true circunstances remained unknown. She knew it was hard for most veterans to make civilians understand what they had been through, and never questionned Face again.
« That's terrible. »
A shiver ran up Face's spine. Although he didn't have a problem talking about Nam, it certainly didn't mean he enjoyed it, and the conversation was not going the way he had planned when he had invited his friends to that fancy restaurant. They were supposed to be saying platitudes, talking about the weather or BA's new feather earings, not about Charlie.
« Were all of you guys in that camp then ? Is that where you met ? »
Murdock lowered his eyes and moved unconfortably.
Hey everyone ! I'm sorry if this chapter is not very good, but I just wanted to try and see if I would be able to write something in English. I love the A-Team, especially Murdock of course. Please don't hesitate to correct any spelling and grammar mistakes, as I am sure there are plenty of them !
