I wholeheartedly agree. Remember that FDR & the OSS (CIA) installed Mao and the communists in China. Moreover, there were at least two Soviet agents that were high level aides to President Roosevelt. I have no doubt that the OSS was involved in assassinating Gen. Patton. Patton was popular...

I am a big fan of Gen. Patton and feel like if we prosecuted Iraq and Afghanistan with the type of force Patton would’ve exerted, rather than letting the news media run the Pentagon, the results would have been very different. Having read Patton’s memoirs, I don’t think he’s given nearly...

That’s a whole different topic than carrying around a fake machine gun. Personally I think having the skill and ability to shoot muzzle loaders is extremely valuable. If the world does go to shiese, then ammunition will be more valuable than gold.

I served in the 2nd Cav and a rapid deployment FORSCOM unit and I’ve got a son serving now.

My pop was in the 101st. You probably chewed some of the same dirt.

The full-auto M-60 is my favorite firearm of all time and o e of the things I missed when I left the Army. Personally, I don’t see the purpose of a 23 pound semiautomatic rifle which would weigh 50+ with a full belt. I understand the rarity side but that doesn’t make it good.

When I travel, I put my knives in my shaving bag, inside my checked bag. I have also started carrying a “tactical pen” which TSA has never questioned. I was in one knife fight as a teenager, about a year before I entered the Army. I took a slash on my off hand and was able to respond in kind...

It would happen at least once when we would be at the range. You never know if their squad leaders inspected their guys weapons before returning to the arms room. Usually the weapons were bone dry when I’d inspect them afterwards. The M16A2 was very rugged and didn’t seem to have the issues...

I was an armorer amongst other skills in the Army during the 80’s and early 90’s. The way I dealt with jams as a range NCO was to place the weapon as close to a 45-degree angle (after dropping the mag of course) while pointing down range. I would then kick down with my heal on the charging...
