I preferred this weapon to the M16A1 when we changed to 5.56 in the NZ army.Never saw a 7.62 Bren, I only used the 0.303 type and on my first exercise carried a L2A1.

What British accent are you talking about.Scottish, Irish or one of the many accents in England. I think you need to learn about long and short soundings of letters. In the example word "car" the R is short for most people which you are interpreting as silent which it is not.In some places in the...

I think you need to find out about the Merkava. Its priorities were (in order) protection,firepower and lastly mobility.This is the order used by the Cent but the M60 pushed up mobility.Height does not make a tank move better and in replacing the M60 the US Army was hellbent in getting the height...

Australia followed the US into the war? The US declared war on the axis? My history books tell me that a screw up in the Japanese embassy meant that the Japanese declaration of war on the US was not delivered until after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Whilst the US was figuring out what it should do...

At 27:40 it looks like a De Havilland Mosquito being attacked (twin inline engines and blister on top of canopy) and at 31:12 it is definitely a Avro Lancaster being strafed.You can even see the roundel on the port wing and the mid upper turret.

Excellent to see a runner of this rare vehicle. As a suggestion though, can someone please learn how to give the proper guide signals to the driver instead of the duck flapping that was shown in this video. Less confusing and more precise.

To clarify myself I believe the L23 was considered a low velocity gun and this would preclude any effective use of APDS (was there a APDS round for the Scorp?)

Is there no one here that watched Dr Who in the sixties? Comments only go back to Dr #3 but I remember Dr #1. Loved it but was scared to hell as a young kid. I believe that the original storyline only had the Dr regenerating 7 times. The Dr telling fibs?

Anyone here heard of Richard Pearse in New Zealand.I believe his story was he did not land successfully and so considered his flight a failure. This was months before the Wright brothers.

Obviously not serving in Intelligence.
