It's a cool show, probably will start more arguments then solve but it would be better to match up warriors from a similar era. Samurai's were pretty bad ass, but when a green beret can put a round between his eyes from 300M, the fight's over. Entertaining show though. Amazon vs Sheildmaiden...

Good Luck Max 10 yrs in uniform first 3 as a Res RTOP last 7 have been as a reg force lineman.

  IMHO there isn't a certain spot that is necessarily better for career progression, that depends solely on you. If you work hard, are eager to learn from your peers in your eventual unit and are reliable both in your trade and as a soldier in general, career progression should go your way...

seeing as it's an open forum, what would you suggest?

Whatever the cause of the explosion, be it seismic activity, or someone lighting whale farts on fire one thing stands out throughout this thread. The ranger's (or someone) reported this explosion to authorities, and it took them a week to get up there to investigate. Innocent or not, if we as a...

  No matter how nice it would seem, you cannot stop a person's ability to say something dumb, after all there are some who only open their mouth for no other reason than to change the foot that currently resides there. My spouse has faced several of those questions, and while there was no...

Glad to see that there was no irreversible damage done, (except to the careers of the duty officer and possibly navigator as well). Must have quite the feeling when they stopped. :o

Wasn't this how the Taliban were armed in the first place, when they were mujahid fighting the soviets? This has a horrifying chance of coming back to bite us pretty hard.

My A** Rides In Naval Equipment -Overheard in a "discussion" overseas

    If things are truly that calm and peaceful now in Cyprus, why are the peacekeepers still there then? I've been to Nicosia, it's a far cry from what I've seen of the Gaza strip on the news, so yes the UN has worked there, but it's not a complete success until the peacekeepers can go home...

Score one for the good guys! Good job boys! :cdn:

Who says natural selection is dead? It's just too bad she didn't collect "souvenirs" :o

Rest easy brothers. :salute:

True enough, but in this case such a change in the dress regs would have to require the approval of the CO or other responsible officer wouldn't it? After all the non-commissioned ranks can't just pick up and do as they please, I could see more than one Sgt Major having a fit over that one. ...

It's generally a nice idea, glad these guys thought of us when designing this equipment. While it would be a nice add on for a set of "stand-to" boots there's not enough info available to really determine whether they would hold up in high stress environments like Afghanistan. They would also be...

Sounds like a unique way to raise money for charity. Not something i could contribute to though as I have a baby face and couldn't even grow a bad moustache if I tried.  8) As long as the facial hair adheres to guidelines I personally have never seen issue with it, just as long as the member...
