  1. 4 weeks from tonight, we're sitting at dinner, together, after breaking camp today around noon-ish. You better get off the stick, brother! Time's a wasting!
  2. Here's another perspective...
  3. This comment needs justification.
  4. Tons of versions of this, no BS, and here's just one. Honor Grad at 7th ID (Light) "Combat Leader's Course." That's Pre-Ranger. Smoked it. I had to stand in front of the formation of those of us that made it through, and the Division CSM, George D. Mock, presented all the awards and grad certs. I got Honor Grad and Land Nav Award. I tied with some infantry fucking ROCK STUD MOTHERFUCKER on the overall PT test, and they gave it to that dude - told me "I got enough out of this course..." Whatever... SO, my feathers are ruffled, I'm in front of formation, CSM Mock is right there, and he asks me before the grad ceremony starts, ... "Anything you want from me, Ranger?" Alright, here it comes. Little Tommy is gonna come out... "CSM, I didn't earm Honor Grad here, I just led - everyone else won that award, and it just happened to be when I was in a leadership position. That's Fate. However, I smoked the FUK out of that Land Nav course, and I did that of my own sheer will. I beat that big fuckin' infantry dude on the PT test, but you'll give him the PT Award, and I'm ok with that..." CSM Mock: "So, you kicked ass here - can I do anything for you?" Little Tommy: "CSM, I want the very next slot to Ranger School that the Division gets..." CSM Mock: "Done deal, Ranger..." 2 weeks later, I was at Fort Benning, getting ready to get my ass kicked all over again. If you don't ask - you'll never know.
  5. I had a 21.5 year history of doing shiit like this, all the way through my Army career. Fukc 'em - you never know what's possible if you don't have the balls to ask. OR, just DO IT... if it wasn't right, you'll find out later - if it worked in the first place. Risk it. Run with what you know. Stay barely inside your capabilities, and you'll never fail. Other than that - Let it rip!
  6. Here's the latest update, from about an hour ago. I like it.
  7. Pressure Cooker Gone Wild?!!? WTF is that?!
  8. I think it was the comment after he hit it - first shot, mind you - that got everyone... Bang... TING! Doc: "You mean THAT one?... " Bastard...
  9. That jackass showed up at the firing line with a 30/30 Leever gun with irons, and says, "What are we shooting at?" Uh, Doc, that white IPSC plate out there at 200 - it's not lit, you probably can't even see it. Then, he shoots the fucking thing... TING!
  10. Hell Yeah, brother - we are one month out, right now. We'll be in camp tonight, 4 weeks from now.
  11. Blonde, tits, tank top - she can get away with it, right?!
  12. DBF. Drunk Bitch Friday. She's 20, hammered, and trying to outsmart the cops, after she's been pulled over. It's amazing, her thought process.
  13. I love the way he can tell a story. I had to study this event in language school. It was a part of unit history, in country. If all those people teaching this would have spilled it all like The Fat Electrician does, I would have had it memorized in 10 fucking minutes...
  14. ^^^ It got me before, I'll admit it.
  15. ...AND... with iron sights.
  16. Eye-opener. Retired BATFE Agent, the original whistle blower on Fast and Furious. This is worth the time, to see what's really going on deep in the current .gov mindset...
  17. This is great...
  18. Here's another account. This is actually part 2 of this interview that Shawn Ryan did. Part 2 is just about Operation Gothic Serpent. Mogadishu. It was saved for release until today, on purpose. Here's Part 1 of the interview, to know more about the man.
  19. Here's a new story. I knew of Brad Halling, just never heard this story. Mogadishu, 3 October 1993. Shiit hit the fan.
  20. Around 24:00 minutes into the Guns & Gadgets vid, a bomshell was dropped. Check that one out again... I posted those vids on what I think is the information content, best to good. Because none of them suck. That's just how I thought the information was presented, and it was from the legal standpoint. Tom Grieve crushed it.
  21. ^^^ I took a warning on FaceBook for merely using the words "throat punch." They stated that my warning was for "inciting violence." I countered, and asked them who directly I was "inciting" and who directly was "threatened." In mere seconds, they sent me another message that stated their review considered my information, and the warning will stand... They are complete Fukc Wagons... I'll post that picture over there and see if I catch another warning...
  22. 5th Circuit has Layed The Smacketh DOWN! Damn good update.
  23. This isn't just Glock shiit - this is pistol shooting in general. Take notice of the part where he says "drop your thumbs..." That applies to every single semi auto pistol...
  24. The Covenant. Just ran it for the second time. Had to absorb it. It's in Prime, if you're a member, it's free now. Worth your time. This fall at the campfire, remind me to tell you about my Terp in Afghaniland. He was a badass Terp, skills like no other. He was just 52 years old, with a bad knee. He spent alot of previous contract time on SF deployments where he didn't have to physically do much, besides ride around, or hang around camp. Assigned to me, he had to walk his ass off, climb mountains in the winter, in snow, and it was rough on him. He threatened to quit on the last valley mission, once we were inserted, and the sun came up the next morning, and he could see the terrain. I talked him out of quitting, because nobody likes a quitter. It worked. But the talk made more work for the mission, my team, and it made a shiit-ton more work for me, personally. And him. It got him up that hill, that he said he wasn't gonna do... We couldn't have done it without him, and his skill set. The second night on that hill, all that work getting him up there payed off. At the end of the mission, he stopped by my tent on Bagram, and gave me a personal gift, and thanked me for the most meaningful deployment he'd been on since he was doing this for three years. I still have that gift, safely tucked away. That man was my savior throughout that trip.
  25. Stopped. Wild information. Won't see this in the news, at all. There will be no mention of it. Check this vid out.
