Fallschirmjager were not Army my friend, they were Luftwaffe, just like the guys on 88mm Flak36s that bailed the Panzers out when they ran up against a T-34, KV1 or Matilda. Well, the pak40 75mm at least gave the Army something to take out a T-34. I met a guy fro the Hermann Georing Division. He ...

Had the Soviets used the 100mm gun more often, the Americans the 90mm and the British their 17 pounder, the Tiger and Panther would not be so celebrated. Personally, if I were a division commander I would try to lower a 155 Long Tom to a flat trajectory to use against a Tiger or Panther at 500 me...

Too bad a few weeks later the Soviets didn't help Poland when Germany attacked it. Gee whiz, I forgot they took the eastern half of Poland as part of the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. That pact by the way made Germany and the Soviet Union each others top trade partners until June 22 1941. Too bad the ...

My God! Someone who touches their chest on bench press. Come to the Gold's where I live and please show the prima donnas how to bench correctly. AWESOME!

Great shape, cut and symmetry.

I love metal/hard rock. However country and Southern Rock guitarists can keep up with best.

@TOLTECAAZTECA And France also! They also sat and did nothing until the Germans attacked with a very telegraphed punch by the way.

After having read accounts by men who were Legionnaires in the 2emeREP, I am reluctant to consider them in the top 5. They are plagued by desertions and language barriers, as many still struggle trying to understand French. Their training is extremely hard though. Why are their no Asian countries...

You always were creative Kathleen. We worked together at John Muir. I miss you.

That he put up the numbers he did in the 1960s is even more impressive. It was a pitchers era.

@lancs02a Have you read "Legionnaire" by Simon Murray? "Naked Soldier" by Tony Sloane? "Life in the French Foreign Legion" by Evan Mcgorman? It does not sound like it. They said the food is mediocre at best. These guys all served in the 2emeREP. Mcgorman said the veterans of other miltaries were ...

This guy was a team player from what I have read. He didn't have a "sore throat" as the German soldiers who weren't into medals used to say.

I had a history professor from Hungary, who had survived Auschwitz and the Gulag, who was just like professor Turgeson. He had no issue with telling leftist professors just what he thought about them. His lecture on Soviet-Chinese relations started with him ranting "the russians don't care about ...

I saw Eric Burdon and the New Animals 13 years back with Canned Heat. They looked their age but kicked ass on stage.

I had been told by a friend in San Francisco's gay court, a drag queen does not try to pass, it is more about looking good and performing. Drag queens also are a fixure in most gay communities and will stand out purposely. I knew some drag queens who dressed only if they would be performing. Drag...

Some of those look more like Pak43, L71s than Flak. The mounting is clearly to low to the ground to be elevated for effective use as a Flak gun. I have never heard of a Pak43 used against aircraft like a Flak36 or Flak41 against tanks.

There are 3 kinds of fights: 1) Sports with rules under a governing sanctioned organization 2)Smokers like in the military where there are rules, a ref, but no governing body or organization 3) Street fights. A person can be a Shaolin master of 3 arts, but if they fight without rules in self defe...

In the words of Wing Chun master William Chueng, "Bruce Lee was probably pound for pound the toughest in the world, but Benny 'the jet' Urquidez would give him a good fight. This the utmost compliment from a traditional master. One thing is for sure, Benny could take a punch, get back up from bei...

@Tony1949d She could use her ass to smother someone to death, what a way to go.

I am not a fan of 12 step groups or AA. I don't think alcoholism is a disease, but disease can certainly result from it, ie. cirrhosis of the liver. If someone can get sober through it however good. Like a hospital, if you are around sick people you can end up sick. Get your sobriety, then get a ...

It served him right for being with someone that ugly, at least she put him out of his misery.

What a tradition. TOTALLY AWESOME!

Can you see this guy as a Drill Instructor in the military? I personally think he is more General or Admiral material. He makes Patton seem timid in comparison. Anybody who could play ball for him, probably could make it through anything. Players that are getting a scholarship should not get off ...

Is this diagnosis overused? I think ADD & ADHD definitely are. My sister thinks she has Aspergers, it is extremely frustrating at points to interact with her. I have read that lack of empathy is a characteristic of Aspergers. If someone does not have empathy for others, don't expect others to hav...

This song makes me think of singing with a Rugby team I was on. Getting a group of guys singing together reinforces brotherhood and bonding. Half of the Rugby team were in fraternities so that added something to it.

He looks like what I imagine a Russian NCO to look like.

I used to work with a Ukrainian nurse. She was blue eyed, blonde and also the most exotic woman I have ever seen. She was also exceptionally bright.

BUDS! Basic Underwater Demolition SEAL! SEAL. Sea Air Land. BUDS is just that: basic. After BUDS, a graduate has at least 6 months to a year before they are really considered part of the SEALs. There is a lot more to being a SEAL than graduating BUDS. Janos only talks about BUDs, he never mention...

If that charlatan Janos (that jerk's real last name), wants to go to Mexico good. He can stay there. Of course he will return to make money with stupid TV shows his idiot lapdogs watch. He was never a SEAL, he was UDT, he was not some 'great body', he was steroid bloated blob, as an announcer, he...

The sad part is these guys are not morons, too bad they pissed away what they had by bad choices.

He probably would not need them in a real fight.

@TheWorldStrider It did not give a good picture of the Americans in my opinion. Read the book if you haven't, it is a lot better.

@bebill2 There would be some who could, but on the there is no question the Royal Marines standards are more demanding. The Royal Marines are like Marine Recon, but without the rest of the Corps. The Royal Marines are the only branch of a countries service to have the title Commando that I know o...

Boxing may be limited to hands, but a trained boxer needs little else. The hand speed, power and pain tolerance puts a boxer at a major advantage over anyone. Boxers usually come from the streets. It is not a coincidence that top boxers come from Newark, Camden, Brooklyn and other tough east coas...

I have heard the British Regiments try to have men from the same areas in them. This is an advantage. I have also heard more people go into it to make a career than the US Army. Is it right it can take up to 10 years to make Corporal? I wish we could structure our Army like the British, but too m...

The American Special Forces can trace their origins to the British. In WW2 Royal Marines trained Ranger candidates. Upon graduating they were given the same thing Royal Marines wear: a GREEN BERET. SBS predate the SEALs by about 20 years. A Brit is more likely to make a career, given it can take ...

I was never a Motley Crue fan. When I first heard this song however, I went and bought Heroin Diaries and have almost worn it out.

I have been trying to find who played this song for the longest time.

@TheClassicalSymphony Me a Nazi? LOL! When Hitler took half of Poland, Stalin took the other half. Stalin then got his ass kicked by the Finns. By the way the USSR and Japan had a non aggression pact signed and honored by both until the USSR attacked Machuria in summer of 1945. What were the Brit...
