Rank and File among Pirates too
Just finished watching the evening news where Estonian midshipman Ardo Kalle returned home and indicated that the scrawny pirates were ranked by the weapons they carried.
"You could tell who were in charge as they were armed with Russian Kalashnikovs versus those with Chinese-made AKs" :eek:
According to Ardo, the 40-day ordeal aboard the German cargo vessel Lehmann Timber ended shy of the one million ransom, as the food on board had long run out, and even the pirates wanted out !
Jeez, go figure :D
