Interesting. In the case of hitting a camel with a car you won't be around to pay compensation to the owner. In those days that road was very dangerous particularly at night during the winter. It was unfenced. It is now and also there are developments nearly the whole way. In the winter the camels would come on the road to sleep as the asphalt retained heat from the sun. I had a very hair raising trip with a Bedouin taxi driver once.

I worked as civilian personnel at RAF Upper Heyford in 1974-75. I don't know if Keflavik was anything like it but there was a group of alcoholic English women camp followers that the F-111 pilots passed around among themselves. By British standards the booze was cheap and the ration plentiful. Most of the NCOs seemed to get drunk every day. My neighbor, an E-4 was dealing hash. The adolescent female offspring of the NCOs seemed to be fair game for everyone. There were plenty of opportunities to get into fights with the British squaddies from the local base. Now that I'm thinking about it, recounting the whole experience might make a good post.
