    "No Mk III boots left in the system," they said.

    Give me a stock code and I can look you your MK3's.  I believe we carry some but the sizes may be limited or they may be construction boots that look like then but are a bit short and have steel toes.

    Destroyer/Or Frigate

    Floating is Generally Good (unless your a sub), however like a Car just because it can move doesn't make it a good ride. I've heard this expression before some of the Streamers had leaks, perminate bends to the hull (Terra Nova I believe), and other things that just made a sail less enjoyable...

    Summary Trial vs Courts Martial

    Just repeating on what the Defence Hotline Lawyer told me.  If you look at the historical stats of Summary trails, 99% are (found) guilty (2007) vs 70% in CM.

    Summary Trial vs Courts Martial

    Having just been charged of AWOL, pleading guilty (after my defence fell apart) at the Summary trail, and receiving a caution. In the prelude, my CoC down played my right to counsel "saying this is just a caution and there's nothing defence lawyers can tell you." I ended up call JAG via the...
