Documentary exploring more on the cleanup operations in Laos...
"1 bomb every 8 mins, 24 hours a day, for 7 years."

This is what happen when you became U.s. running dog. you get to clean theirs shit.... after the war. These bombs finder are trained by the u.s to clean up theirs mess and shits. We need to learn from the past, to prevent it happening in the future again. Don't let your country use by foreigner.
