The Vietnam War ended 40 years ago but Laos is still feeling the effects. After the war ended and all the soldiers moved on, many bombs were left behind. The people of Laos decided to put the weapons of destruction to good use and turn them into things that could help the community.

Those boats aren't bomb casings, they are F4 Phantom centreline drop tanks.

I would hazard a guess that the boats are actually drop tanks, not bomb casings, I really think it would be impossible to float even a hollowed out 1000 pound bomb.

#2 and #10 aren't bombs. Actually they are fuel tanks who are under wings near the bombs
