    Mark Cuban says women supporting Trump are not "strong and intelligent"

    At Mavericks games he used to run out on the court and act like a little kid when he disagreed with a call. If you want a millionaire's opinion listen to Kevin O'Leary not this jerk.

    Rumble in the Jungle: American Tanks in Vietnam

    Forgot half tracks in the squadron also. When you got up to Mechanized Cav groups such as the 2d there were 2=3 recon squadrons and a tank battalion. My point was whether wheeled or tracked or ideally a combination of both, we had the focus on recon with complimentary capabilities in WWII. I...

    Rumble in the Jungle: American Tanks in Vietnam

    What's sad is in WWII we had a family of vehicles that provided an all around capability for a cav reconnaissance squadron: M8 armored car, White scout vehicle, M20 Scout vehicle, M5 Stuarts, Scott 75mm SP Howitzers. We sure know how to muck things up when we go revolutionary instead of...

    Here’s What NORAD’s Commander Just Told Us About The Langley AFB Drone Incursions

    There was a time that any aircraft on landing approach to Ronald Reagan airport had a strict time limit on the approach and then land. If the pilot dallied around in that airspace it was assumed to be hostile. Said Patriot batteries and the destroyer were well within range.

    Here’s What NORAD’s Commander Just Told Us About The Langley AFB Drone Incursions

    Gobbledygook. No authority or responsibility to defend our air space?! Even if services are responsible for air space above their facilities these things had to fly from somewhere. I remember in DC there were Patriot batteries deployed and an Arleigh Burke destroyer parked in the Potomac...

    Rumble in the Jungle: American Tanks in Vietnam

    Although I loved the 283 in my '57 Chev it didn't weigh seven tons like the M114. By the time I got to the Advanced Course in 1979 Ft. Knox was using the M114s as training aids for recovery training.

    Germany; 2/2 ACR. We fired HE in the fall of 1976.

    Israeli retaliation against Iran has begun.

    You are correct. The Saudis will conduct the usual form letter type of condemnation to please the folks on the street and to not stir the pot with Iran. I would not call it fear as much as maintaining the status quo. Not noticed by many at the time, but crown prince Mohammed bin Salman...

    Chicks dig scars!

    Five scars around my abdominal region, but it's been seven years and they've all faded away so I'm not going to impress anyone.

    M4 VS M7 Sig Spear

    French paratroopers in Indochina loved the M1. My first military rifle I fired as a kid. I would like one today.

    The German U-Boat Menace of World War II

    Donitz, commander of the U-boat fleet had two precepts: 1. Attack at night on the surface using the near invisibility of the low profile of the boat and its speed on the surface which was faster than a transport. The type VII was developed specifically for this purpose. 2. He did not recognize...

    Mass Gov Maura Healey pushes new restrictions

    Another example of a worthless state legislature. Everybody bemoans the rise of dictatorial powers of the executive yet still elects simpleton state reps and senators. In some ways Texas is the same. The legislature hid while restrictions went on and on without being called back into session...

    Recommend Halloween Movies?

    Haven't been into scary movies in decades, but Monster Summer with Mel Gibson premiering tomorrow looks pretty good.
