Sounds like the Marines still hate the M9.

On the way to the train station this am I spotted a laminated card in the sidewalk. Something told me this was important. Picked it up- you ready for this?- I was a laminated social security card! I have it in my wallet right now but I had to catch the train. I am thinking I should call my local PD and arrange to drop it there tonight on my way home? I don't see any reason to give it to the NYPD unless simply having it in my pocket is going to get me in trouble.

You should look all that up. The Black Panthers were actually the 66th division and had an interesting ordeal on the "Leopoldville" http://www.lonesentry.com/gi_stories_booklets/66thinfantry/index.html The 101st are "The Screaming Eagles" and had their own "rendezvous with destiny.". And I say rendezvous but I mean it as a plural as it is the most decorated division in the Army. If you have any of his paper work it would be pretty easy to get an idea of where he was. I helped my wife's family do this when her father died. He was on a minesweeper that was lost in a typhoon and was literally marooned on a deserted island just after the invasion of Okinawa.

No kidding today I had the most liberal of lesbian lefties ask me to teach her how to make her own bullets. She said she needs to learn all that survivalists shit. mind is being blown.

Kids get a pass though. My friend's son at about 7 yrs. asked me "How many guys did you get??? " with his fists all bunched and his little war face on. I had to tell him "Nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand!" and we were like buds!

When I was in country the entire Army was put on notice that too many officers were getting combat medals while not going outside the wire, while NCO's and below were having their Bronze Stars downgraded to ARCOMs. I went to BNCOC with this guy that told this horrific story about a guy in his platoon that was blown out of his M1114 by an IED, stood up amid a small arms attack, gathered his wits in a ditch and went back to the burning vehicle to pull his comrades out and into the ditch. He returned fire until help arrived. People with him put him in for a Bronze star and it was downgraded to an ARCOM, while an officer at the tail end of the convoy, his first convoy, got the Bronze for valor. The number of senior officers getting valor ribbons between 2003 and 2006 outnumbered NCO's and enlisted by about 30%

If John Milius is still involved you can be sure of the mention again. The director of the new film has nothing but stunt coordinator credits to his name.

Yep. The only reason I saw it. That and their on set review of "Flight of the Intruder" we're scarily influential for me.

I would never have thought diesel could go above gasoline a few years ago. I really wonder why.

Liked it.

@Harry - watch your a**!

You're absolutely right you know. It's a big win. Right now the news coverage is completely within the choir so it doesn't feel so big, but it is quite shocking in it's clarity. I am a little stunned myself.

Yes. I am looking to get the cylinder head and the top of the cylinder's mating surfaces ground smooth.

For me it isn't a question of how lethal it is in comparisson. It is that whichever handgun you buy first should be in a position to be used in your defense. So with that in mind and your concern with your kids in the house, it should be locked under your bed in the V-line. At least that's what I would do. If you wanted that small safe for gobs of ammo, hold off on it it keep some CCI round nose in a place your child can not acces. Without a handgun you could probably keep them in the truck of your car.
