Jester983 0 Posted September 17, 2002 I was just curious how many people here watch mail call on the history channel? I think its a very interesting show. What do you guys think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted September 17, 2002 I THINK YOU NEED TO DROP AND GIVE ME 25 GOMER!!! R. Lee Ermy motivates me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Assault (CAN) 1 Posted September 17, 2002 I doubt many people here get the History Channel. Oh well, I do, and I watch it whenever it's on, it's a good program. Only a guy like R. Lee Ermy could host that show. HOORAH!. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted September 17, 2002 Oh man, I love it. Ermy is just a bad ass- I mean, no other host I can think of can just grab an Ak47 and fire a couple rounds into a flak jacket to answer a question- every other host is a candy ass boot compared to Ermy. Btw, I wrote in an Email asking about VBS1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EveronVetsAgainstTheWar 1 Posted September 17, 2002 I watched it a couple times, I didn't really like it. I found Ermey corny and they didn't really have any cool stuff on. Wow he can drive a tank over a haystack. Look at that he used a sharp sword to cut a watermelon... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted September 17, 2002 sure its a little corny but it beats watching American Idol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How many other Q&A hosts could fire a civil war cannon, or an AK-47? Tyler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EveronVetsAgainstTheWar 1 Posted September 17, 2002 Anyone ever seen that show called "Ghosts of War" where that Croc Hunter dude went to these pacific islands and crawled around gun emplacements and caves and found Japanese skeletons and went diving into sunken WW2 ships finding skeletons and guns. And he sat in a japanese fighter sitting at the bottom of a shallow lagoon. I thought it was pretty cool, I wish I could do that. Plus the dude has balls, he was swimming with like a million jelyfish and was just like "Oi! Another little bugger stung me" over and over again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
