The Anglo-Irish Agreement was signed in 1985, 5 years before Mr Grey became PM.

This reminds me of the poster who was trying to smuggle in his fake ID:rolleyes:

To be fair, the INS is a good example of a bloated, completely ineffectivve federal bureaucracy - Mohammed Atta...

You sure got a pretty 120mm main gun, boy!

That's nothing, I've seen an Abrams itself catch fire after the external fuel bladder was burst and the fuel ran into the engine! :biggrin:

[QUOTE=womble]Sorry, it only crossed my mind after I had posted that, that kind of info might be resticted. [QUOTE]

Not really - apparently, the Irish drill manual is restricted.

Not sure about US Army but in the Marine Corps, there are no officers as such in EOD - only Warrant Officers and LDO's (Limited Duty Officers - basically a Warrant Officer on steroids - one who has...

Yep, you did get it wrong about VN, as Bam Bam pointed out. Your "rubber sandals" line also neglects to mention the huge aid the Communists got from the USSR.

Are you still claiming Landrovers...

I always loved that "something" bit!

Make sure you don't eat it either or drink the water or you'll have to pay a visit to the corpsman! :biggrin:

You slag people off for judging vehicles on looks yet one of your criteria appears to be personal comfort i.e. "warmer".

The pictured HMMWV is not the only version, you can quite easily get 10...

On the upside, the sight of armored HMMWV's, with a crew-served weapon on top, would have the likes of AFRI, PANA, Ed Horgan and loonymedia in fits of rage over the "militarisation of Ireland" -...

That looks like an M998, not a hardback, which you would assume would be the platform for sufh a big ****-off gun.




There is no version with a turret, unless you put it on yourself like...

It's an absolute kip. Iraq would be a better holiday destination.

If it's the armored version, then a crew-served weapon can be/is mounted on top - not really a "turret" though.

Thanks, I'm really just interested in keeping ahead of Hedgehog! :biggrin:

In reply to Yook - I´m hurling myself down mountains...and the Frauleins are great, except it´s a bit quiet at the...

Don´t mind me, I´m sitting here drinking beer in Austria and posting the first thing that comes into my head in an effort to increae my postcount.

They do, (Seinfeld, anyone?) except there´s nothing ironic in what you wrote.

Which by definition, isn´t combat.

Lighten up, Francis. You´re not the only one here to have been in combat.

Thepoint is, S Armagh wasn´t a neutral or even ambivalent area, the population was already solidly against the BA so taking the softly softly approach set out by Cal Tanker wouldn´t have made a...

Christ, this is getting to be like a discussion on Von Clausewitz!

Use the search function on IMO of course! :biggrin:

It was an aberration in that never before had such a proportionally high number of British (no German mercenaries this time) been sent to fight in a land war on the continent. Large standing armies...

Britain has never been a continental power, second, third or fourth, for the simple reason that it didn't have to be. Being an island nation with the best Navy in the world and relying on continental...

NI isn't quite as British as Finchley and you don't have part-time Army units from Liverpool or Leeds recruited to patrol the streets of those cities.
