What do the words "kitchen sinks" mean, in that context?
They were slinging everything in the inventory at us and, (old joke) I thought I saw a kitchen sink go flying by. One of my 6 loads into the firebase was a water buffalo (large water trailer) I had barely got the thing on the ground when a mortar round dead centered it. We got some shrapnel on the bottom of the helicopter but that was all. It took me a few days to figure out that the only way it could have hit the trailer would be to go between the rotor blades going about 307 rpms.
