    Viet that photo scared the hell outta me...

    wayyyyyyy back they told me they were sending me to an M551 Sheridan outfit (the light tank in that photo on the drop skid)

    One of the biggest pieces of crud ever made, that tank. Thank God they screwed up my orders and assigned me to two different outfits at the same time. When I showed them the orders they let me choose. wheeeeewwwwwwwwww that Sheridan was about as armored as an M111....two flattened cans of green beans duct taped together with a jalopy suspension and engine pack. (I guess it is no wonder they dropped them out of C-130s )

    Lane, Company Clerk, Raptor, I put our new defense plane into place to ward off the Moderators. We have bill boards all over the island like these








    And I think they are working. KL Carrol settles in for a long weekend



    CSI El Dorado is called in to investigate RealJambo's near fatal accident



    And I have to apologize again, I keep forgetting that Viking Granddad and alcohol is a bad mix



    Even the glee club at Rosie's is revolted by that last photo and is leaving the post



    OK, on to the pirate thing. I know you guys put a lot of time and effort into building the ship, but to be honest, it didn't exactly live up to my expectations.



    Vietvet and Lane discuss gunnery practice



    OK Clerk, "fire one"


    Me thinks we need to recalculate the powder charge tables before we start doing this for real



    OK, I'm done for today, you don't have to keep coming back and checking for new stuff

    While the other kids were, as Lane would put it, "swooning" over Shari Lewis, Pharmman was "swooning" over Lambchop
