    From Military.com. You got to be kidding me!!

    If this is true, lets send the troops home now!!

    Sounds like the book, "Catch 22".

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Might as well drop leaflets. At least they're cheaper.

    Can't do that as we might be charged with littering! We would have to prove that we had clean up crews for the mess!..

    I still think this is like Yossarian in Catch 22! He had to bomb, didn't like to bomb, so he always dropped his bombs in the ocean. IE. You have bombs. Bombs must be dropped. So he dropped them!! Good book on the military..

    It makes me sad. We aren't faring much better with our troops, announcing withdrawl in 2011.

    Well let me tell you its not just the Air War over there that's been castrated but the ROE for ground forces almost guarantees they can get killed while protecting the Taliban.

    That POS general they have over there must be so far up sotero's butt only his shoes are showing.
    Talking about "we should concentrate on helping instead of killing" "the time for war has passed" and even more treasonous, talking about treating with the taliban for Gods sake.

    Jeez, have all our kids that have died in Afghanistan for nothing? So this little toad can weasel a promotion from the illegal alien in charge?

    The liberals have been harping about "it's another Viet Nam" ever since we started in Sep 01, now they are ensuring that it DOES turn into another VN, just like they created the last VN, courtesy of that criminal LBJ and his little liberal commie butt buddies like mcnamara and that attorney general.
