He addressed me specifically, so that threw me off. My appologies... I feel somewhat the same way, It needs to be ended now. I don't regret the invasion, they posed a sustained threat that needed to be removed. After reducing Saddams regime, I felt obligated to get Iraq back on it's feet...

You're correct.

He's stretching if he thinks I claimed that. I simply would like to know how he would execute the plans he laid out above.

How about adding some real substance to your tirade? You said "If they refuse, then we send in military to accompany inspectors.". What troops would you send, how many, where would they come from, how would you substain them? You seen to have a better plan to handle the situation & you're...

New toy arrived. Emanage & Profec E01 boost controller. I picked it up from Hams on SF. It came with a fields harness too, pre spliced! He does nice work...

That happened, they kept the inspectors out IIRC Hmmm, what exactly do you mean by this? Are you advocating sending in a battalion, or even brigade sized element into Iraq by themselves? What do you think the Republican Guard would have done to that element? Further, do you have any idea of...

1 more rwhp than Joe, 100 more than Nate & 150 more than Jake

I go to close on selling my house on the 17th, but I'm hoping that I'll have my swap complete so i go on the 18th..... What the hell, where is Brad at? He finished his swap, I need his help....

Not to sound snide, but I guess I do. I joined the Army when you were 2yo, and I've had more years in boots than you have years in school. I took my physical just today in order to return to active duty, going to the 3rd Battalion of the 75th Ranger Regiment. I know what I'm talking about, so...

Hey, what he said, you cracker!

That is 120lbs? :icon_conf I have carried many rucks in the past, and what you've listed wouldn't weigh 40lbs, but if you say so. Regardless, if you're carrying all that in you ruck & not an A or B bag, your commander is wasting the combat effectiveness of his unit. :3d_frown: Carrying a...

I should be assigned to 3/75th by March.....

If that's the case, your commander (be it Battalion or Company) is a fuckin moron.....

I'd like to see any man sustain carrying a 120lb ruck for more than 5 miles. When I carried my combat loaded ruck & my portion of our TOW system (three man crew) into Iraq during DSII, it weighed about 160lbs total. That's the complete load, 5.56mm, water, et al. We walked maybe 3-4 miles, at...

Roy, If you're serious about SF, don't concentrate on running so much. What you need to do is a lot of push ups, road marching, sit ups road marching & road marching. Train on the events you will do the most of. 12 miles a pop with a 40-60lb rucksack at least twice a week will be a decent...

Stupid idea, and don't tell me not to give you my opinion in a quasi public forum, noob.

Grim, I recommend that you port, bead blast & coat your exhaust manifold. Better flow (that you'll notice) & the engine bay will be cooler too.

LOL, you caught me before the edit....:biglaugh: Two years ago, my oldest son broke his arm.....TWICE!!! The first time required surgery, the second time didn't. I shelled out over $30k, out of pocket no less, that year. :nono:

I rod the barrel & whipe the rest down, they're more protected from rust & they fire better too.

LOL, my medical expenses average $850/mo. I wish it was only $200...
