We moved a short distance, found Bear Tor and retrieved our kit.
Only a short distance? For the Marines that was spot on.
Returning to Shekou in China where I lived.
The Navy decided to do an assault on a miltary range in the New Territories in Hong Kong. They launched from their carrier and flew up the Pearl River to their target. Unfortunately they miscounted the islands, missed their LZ and deposited a Marine Commando in the Peoples Republic of China. Luckily in the middle of the Shenzen Bay there was a Hong Kong border boat that witnessed it. He notifyed Hong Kong and they notified the carrier. At that point the lead crew were informed of their error and returned to pick up their charges.
They got away with it apparantly. The Embassy in Beijing was on tenderhooks for weeks but nothing came of it.
