Ukrainian shenanigans are cheeky and fun! Russian shenanigans are cruel and tragic, which makes them not really shenanigans at all! Evil shenanigans! 😮 Окупанти вибухають на фронті.mp4

And this, gentlemen, is why BaseOps will always be a valuable resource for the up and coming (STS)....

OK, given other recent "protests" where the government didn't react when they should, I have a tough time considering 6 Jan to be "definitely violent and definitely a riot" or anything close to being an "insurrection." Anyone with a lick of common sense knows it wasn't, and compared to Portland and Seattle is was somewhat tame in comparison; but for some reason those "events" didn't garner a House Select Committee despite doing far more damage. No, 6 Jan was political theater from both sides. Trump is and will remain an asshole for stirring people up to run off like an angry mob of idiotic peasants, but there was a precedence for it being allowed. The Democrats are trying to garner sympathy and support by claiming it was an attempt to overthrow the government, but have no excuse why they didn't respond to Antifa riots. Neither are right, and we all know it! The question is, is there anything to gain through continuing with this nonsense, or like most government initiatives, it is another colossal waste of time and money?!?

If that's all the ATF wanted, then why aren't they letting people register them under trusts for free?!?

So you didn't wait like most are advising? How long did your Form 1 take to be approved? I presume you e-filed...

You're no fun! 🤪🤪🤪

That would be 20AF, famous for this guy...

Tim Colceri. Sent me an autographed poster with "Get Some!" written on it several years back. A really nice guy (Vietnam USMC vet), but the Gunny (who I also met, and have his autograph on a grenade) was made for the role...

We were using Vivarin back in the late 70s/early 80s, haven't heard that name in years! Didn't know they still sold the stuff! This was pretty popular as well...

WTF?

Isn't the Scott O'Grady Rule to get a confirmed air-to-air kill, the target has to cost more than the missile used to destroy it? Ironically, a quick Google search revealed the O'Grady Rule actually states "a drunken mistake can only be used to (partially) negate mens rea (and only for crimes of specific intent) and not to justify an unreasonable use of force in a plea of self-defence."

Two lucky dudes!

Damn.

If it ain't got Glenn Plake in it, I'm not watching it!

The majority of Army airborne bubbas I know have spinal cords shaped like question marks and about 10-30% disability ratings if they're lucky, but a retired USNR CDR I also know has 100% disability due to a hysterectomy and sleep apnea!

WTF?!? 😶😶😶
