    Welcome to Club Ed. your home for the next 20 years. With the firearms charges will he be turned over to the feds first or after? That is if he doesn't get off on a psych defence.

    PT Standards on BMQs Today

    That's the one, our unit (44th) has issued one to each soldier and we are being encouraged by the leadership to use it. We just stated doing an assessment of one or more of the checks every garrison night (5 Km tonight), and our progress will be checked on a regular basis (annually?). As a...

    Alas, a speedy death to this idea is not to be. http://vancouver.cbc.ca/regional/servlet/View?filename=bc_nelson20040928 May they never find a place that wants to take it.

    I have to give credit where credit is due, yesterday evening at our garrison night we did a 2.4k run and I was beat out in the last 50 m by a medic. :salute:

    Annon says Iraq war illegal

    http://edition.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/meast/09/16/iraq.annan.ap/index.html If the UN rules the war in Iraq was illegal, shouldn't that mean something in concequences? I know there are lots of stories/editorials out there remarking on how the UN is an orginization with no teeth. After seeing...

    Expert Field Medic Badge

    First off I'm not an Army Medic, I'm a Reservist sapper who is the training officer at a Volunteer Fire Dept., we do respond for extractions and recoveries, but are not officially a first responder department and I considered Medic when I joined. I very much doubt anyone would join the medics...

    Blast, Mushroom Cloud Reported in N. Korea

    Speculation The former Yongjo-ri Missile Base, (currently a hole in the ground). The accidental ignition of a NoDong missile set of its fuel and adjoining missiles, the following chain reaction created a mushroom cloud and a crater the envy of sappers around the world. At least it wasn't...

    Draft dodgers get memorial

    "You missed the point entirely." Ok, that happens, ;) The problem isn't with dictionary definitions it's with the application of the wrong word. The German high command would definitely label him traitor to his leader (which he was). Traitor to his people is a debateable issue (most would...

    Draft dodgers get memorial

    Ok, if it wasn't moral grounds and they weren't running to save their own skin, what was their motive? and what motive is it that they are deserving of a memorial? I will have to look into Claus von Stauffenberg to determine how he fits the dictionary def. but a historically different one...

    Draft dodgers get memorial

    If the Draft Dodgers said â Å“I morally object and will not fight.â Å“ and faced the consequences, then agree or not I would say â Å“they've got ballsâ ?. History then could have judged them on their actions and decided if they merited some acknowledgement or recognition. Running away to dodge...

    Need a new watchband, thinking of this

    Here's a bit of trivia for you, the human eye/brain can interpret analog displays faster than digital ones but digital displays give greater resolution. I find the one I've got gives the best of both worlds. A stop watch is a must (safety fuse etc.) Chimo

    Need a new watchband, thinking of this

    I'm happy with this one and I've seen quite a few others with them. http://www.timex.com/bin/detail.tmx?item=048148846012 of course that's watch and all. You can get watches cheap these days so if you replace a band and battery that's almost the price of a new watch. Chimo

    It also doesn't hurt to make sure you don't overdue the coffee/caffeine products as well.
