5 октября 1969 г. угон самолета МиГ-17Ф №232 эскадрилья 1913 ВВС Кубы. Молодой кубинский летчик л-т Эдуардо Гуэрро Хименес пересек границу и приземлился на американской авиабазе Хомстед. Полет проходил на высоте 10 - 13 метров, что не позволило радарам вовремя обнаружить нарушителя. В момент посадки МиГ-а на той же авиабазе находился самолет "Air Force-1" президента США! Translation: "October 5, 1969 hijacking of aircraft MiG-17F fighters No. 232 Squadron 1913 Cuban Air Force. A young Cuban pilot l-t Guèrro Eduardo Jiménez crossed the border and landed at the US airbase Homestead. Flight took place at a height of 10-13 metres, which prevented the radars detect wrongdoing. At the time of the landing of MiG-and on the same air base was flight "Air Force 1" President of the United States!" The plane was returned to the Cubans and ten years later, on June 12, 1979, Jiménez hijacked Delta Flight 1061 back to Havana!

Was just at Eglin last week, other than the Barrett MRAD in .338 Lapua for six grand, I didn't see much that interested me... The biggest NEX I've been to is the one at Pearl. It's full of overpriced Hawaiian shirts. Nothing too special there either. Still, having been subjected to having to shop at the BX during overseas assignments, I have a special fondness for the place. I've found some great deals there over the years, most recently some sweet Reebok ATV19s in black for under thirty bucks at Offutt a couple of weeks back!

Not sure if this belongs here or in the 'WTF?' thread...

The best thing about active duty is the retirement at the end...

Take an Easter bunny marshmallow (a.k.a. a peep) and smush it down with your hand. Voila, you have a marshmallow in the shape of North Korean dictator, Kim Jong-un! For reference, here is the North Korean leader...

Might be a repost, but I don't care. Allegedly the following was snuck into a Navy flag officer's sexual assault prevention brief...

Anyone else watch the Qatar MotoGP race last weekend? Looks like it's gonna be another great season!

Here's a blast from the past! Back in 2006, we had in which I posted this pic of three individuals you might recognize...

Haven't shaved since the first of August, so I'm looking like an extra on Vikings!

9 Incredible Achievements Of The 91-Year-Old Retired Air Force General Who Broke The Sound Barrier Yeah, the lack of a "shut the fuck up and live with it like the rest of us" option negates any reason to vote in this "poll"...

First, I can't speak to the laws of Maine but in some states you are allowed to open carry on your own private property. Secondly, I agree in that the police only received a call stating there was an individual with a gun. Whether that is true or not, they will respond accordingly, as they did. As you stated, he wasn't charged and he's not even cuffed in the photograph so I don't see what all the fuss is about; but considering the news this morning reported about some kid who didn't get a foul ball at a baseball game, I can only guess it was a slow news day! Lastly, the tattoo is not against the laws, unless we're talking about the laws of good taste! But one look at that guy and I would say he has a history of bad choices. Even the look on the deputy's face tells he's also thinking what a douchebag this guy is! Cheers! M2

And as expected, a quick response from ARRSE...

Apparently this all started on ArmsList according to folks on other gun forums...

FYSA... Cheers! M2

Yeah, I can imagine what might happen if a slight "glitch" were to occur... Whoops!

Shit!

Started new thread without searching. Fail. Thread closed.

How much time before this is an issue at the base gym?!?

Ruh-roh!

Yeah, but it's been deactivated!
