scout

dont like shotguns Merphy's law says that when ull have one u'll need somthing else altogether

hmmmm..... i remember spoiling the day for some marine officers

i was infantry. we dont have marines, lightfighter, mechs. and so on cause we do it all. became officer and then i spent some time as a recon instructor. fun fun fun! edit: now im recon commander in the reserves, which is much more fun!

when we went on ambushes we took CS spray and we dug, a hole in the middle of the formation. after we were done with the ambush we would cover it and spray it with CS. it prevents animal to come close for about week or two. BTW. the best field toilet-paper? round smooth rocks! we stopped to take these plastic bags after hizbollah shot at us and one bullet punctured it, and all our cold weather gear was........um......unwearable

it really depends on what and where ur operating. we almost never take backpack. there aint nowhere to go

here is another tip: do u think its sensible? THEN DONT DO IT!!!!

couple of things: 1. the fuel is ingnitable, a simple tracer or I/T bullet will ingnite it. more over a simple artilery bombardment will ingnite it, or shatter it to pieces. this thing happens a lot in battlefield and what is out, is getting damaged! 2. in the syrian army, in case of external fire, the crew should bail out (im not kidding! 3. in T-62 it wasnt fuel tanks but wood! the reason was that the tank couldnt aim down because the hull interrupted. so u jettison the wood and reverse, and then u have an angle down. its not so smart because of another thing: the burning fuel leaks into the engine compartment and no need to say any thing else right? thats why u have No. 2!

all the humm-vee's and m-151 i saw in this game are the closed ones. i know humm-vee has a turrent for heavy wepon (M-2, MK-19 or ATGM launcher), it has a TOW version and it has adittional GPMG. the M-151 has M-2 and GPMG in its open version. another thing. is there an option to "turn in/out" from the fighters section in M-113? i saw u havent got to the option to use personal weapon while on board a vehicle.

no? doesnt it? are we encouraging un-democratic governments to rise? will it be 4 the good of the people? the living standart actually droped down in the years after Oslo, because the corruption of the PA. here is an example: someone wants to import construction materials to beth-lehem. he needs to pay jibril rajub's men for the right to leave the city, to import his stuff, to build etc. etc. its typical, u intervene of a "noble" cause and then you leave everything behind, doesnt it matter to u what will happen next? im sorry about  this but its just what any1 have done with almost every country, and it really sucks. edit: i really would be more happy that the Hamas will rule. at least will have an enemy with clear positoin towards up. and maybe then u'll get off our backs. this way Arafat says one thing, and u seem to believe him, but does something entirely else.

hey aculaud, you 4got something else: someone to carry it all for you!

i say again, there was no democratic process, and i was refering to the so called democracy in the PA its like Bashar Assad was elected by 99.6% of the voters......right......... the rein of Arafat is a rein of terror and corruption even towards his people. between the years '98-'00 there was an junrest caused by the high corruption in the PA. a survey done in '99 determines that 80% of jerusalems palestinians dont want to give up their citizenship and be ruled by the PA. etc etc. the fact that Arafat was recognized by the UN as the sole representative of the palestinian people was, maybe, because there wasnt any large organization to do it. but again, it doesnt meant it is a democraticly elected. its as vicious and totalitarian as Syria or Iraq for that matter. does the Fact that Arafat isnt supporting openly terrorist organizations mean that he doesnt at all. the el-fatah and it Tanzim and El-Aqsa martyrs wings are HIS men, and the fact he allows them to opperate says it all. more over, the control Arafat has over its people is absolute, and he had shown it for scores of times. Arafat may be moderatem compared to Assad, or Saddam Hussein, but it seems that his goals havent been changed since the late '60.

dont worry snake. we're not even close to understand how our brain works. so no R2D2's here!

aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! stop this toture, ill tell u everything!!!!!! please!!!!!!!!!1 geez, that was scary one. a pretty good way to interogate war-prisoners no?

gggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr *frothing from the corners of his mouth* no i wont repeat myself! go back couple of pages and read carefuly!!!!!

first of all in a conventional combat, hand-2-hand will be in urban areas and in trenches, and then it'll be life and death. CT units also use it as another measure to control suspects, and they need it to be effective. second, martial arts are excellent way to stimulate (?) aggresivness in troops, and THATS a commodity thats greatly needed. and last, a good soldier is one that can fight it out inevery situation. thats the only way to stay alive.

one correction: Arafat is democraticly elected as president Mubarak is democraticly elected in egypt, means they arent. there is much discord behind the scenes althought the palestinians are careful not to show it, as i said before, he is leader for life, or until some1 will pull him off and take his place. simple as that. Sharon came to power only after moderate leaders failed to come to terms with Arafat, which means that sharon will be replaced by the people of israel. Arafat though, wont, there is no democracy in the PA system.

hey.....im here!!!! huey has ONLY 2 blades not 4. plz change it will ya?

here one from squad leaders course: i was a machine-gunner and in the battalion Ex. they told me i'll be in the battalion weapons element. so they told us they're assembling 3 gympies as one element. boy that was enough warning, but i just didnt heed. and so happy that i was gonna shoot alot and move a little, i gathered about 1500 rounds for myself and another 1300 for no.2. and in the briefing the bitter truth unfolded: were gonna OPEN the objectives for the whole battalion, which means, lotsa humping little shooting, all this with 50 Kg on my poor back. and it got worse, the recon squad got lost and instead of walking 8 Km i walked 15, i almost got run over by a tank etc. any way, in the morning i decided that i wont leave my first position until i'll shoot off atleast 500 rounds. and so, i went off firing madly. i've ended almost 700 rounds when a very happy squad leader approached me with hands full of ammo: "you are doin such a great job! here, i gathered for you another 500 rds. so u could carry on" NNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ummmmmmmm..........btw u can have a sound sample from the film "Epocalipse now" there is great sound there.

i'd like to remind u that the huey has a two-blade rotor. the shadow showed 4. thats it

where is the rockets the miniguns THE FIRE POWER

first of all i want to correct something: the IDF is no policy maker. it an army, it execute orders from the government. there is a dynamic evolution in democratic states leadership: usually moderates rule, but as a situation escalates, the government turn more and more extreme. that what happened in israel in the past 8 years. now on the other hand, leadership in totalitarian countries (and for that matter i see the PA as one) doesnt change unless there is a coup. i really think that at the moment Arafat will be removed israel will return to the cycle and more moderate leader will be chosen, and that'll result in some kind of agreement, though im not overly optimistic about that point. this cycle of violence has started in the late 1800's and i dont it'll end soon, but will intesify instead.

well........cost is fluid though. in '40s the cost of a 1g uranium was astronomical because there were produced only few grams in a year, where in the '70 it was quite abundant, so the cost issue is realy a matter of technology development no?

next thing we will import the terrible monster of "aahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"!

as they say: the more its sophisticated the higher probability for a breakdown!
