    Nick Glennie-Smith's end credits of We Were Soldiers never fails to get me all emotional  sad_o.gif

                    Especially:

    "The Mansions of the Lord"

    To fallen soldiers let us sing

    where no rockets fly nor bullets wing

    Our broken brothers [and sisters] let us bring

    to the mansions of the Lord

    No more bleeding no more fight

    No prayers pleading through the night

    just divine embrace, eternal light

    in the mansions of the Lord

    Where no mothers cry and no children weep

    We will stand and guard tho the angels sleep

    All through the ages safely keep the mansions of the Lord

    Recently, Germany sold it's MiG-29's to Poland, for 1 euro each*. Maybe Nogova would have been able to strike such a deal with some neighboring country. More than a few MiG-29's would make maintenance go way over budged, but a small sqdn should be a possibility.

    *Damn, why didn't they tell me? I would have given them 10 euro's each!

    It was 1 Euro for the lot, according to AFM  smile_o.gif

    Oh and Bmgarcangel, I don't think you're thinking straight.

    I've got a question:

    How can I you the CAS from the Radio?

    I almost mean the same as you.

    Question:

    How can I use the CAS? Aircraft don´t attack.

    Any script?

    It creates an invisible target for any other HUMAN pilot to be able to lock onto, so that he knows precisely where to attack. It doesn't do anything in SP.

    How can you people be deluded by what the military is, especially you Conglisere, if you are going to fly Tornadoes around you have to accept that the result is death for someone who has agreed to kill you and accepts the risk of death like you should accept the risk of death when in the forces.

    The forces are seen as just a footstep to better things but they are a big step as you are risking your life. A British soldier was killed in Iraq yesterday, did he think there was no risk and that the military is not about killing? Get real people.

    I shan't be flying Tornados wink_o.gif

    I'll either be flying Hercs or Chinooks, or if I was to fly a combat aircraft, it'd be the Typhoon smile_o.gif

    But look, your attitude is that of an anti-military person, and as such, your reasoning and points is/are questionable to say the least, for anybody who is either currently serving, or who has, or who will. As I said before, servicemen do not generally sign up to go kill people/to get killed. They accept that this is part of being in the military, but they don't sign up because of this. The military isn't just about killing/getting killed. It is practically the opposite, as it basically teaches you how to live, how to fend for yourself. My father learnt tons from being in the military. From sewing, to driving an M60, to night vision techniques.

    Currently student pilot in the RAFVR ( Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve ).

    Will join a service when university degree is completed.

    You have made a few grammatical and spelling errors, but overall a pretty good letter. Ran suggested that a brief but detailed 'picture' of the conditions in Chechnya be included in the letter, which I said I would help him with if he was interested. Perhaps this should be added in when it has been written.

    Well people don't signup to their national armed forces to kill and especially not to get killed. rock.gif I know that for sure  wink_o.gif

    that's not what they sign to do , that's what they sign for

    Well, when you apply, they don't ask you, "How'd you like to kill some bastard ragheads?" or tell you, "You're going to die in the army, it is inevitable". They ask you questions like "How would you feel about having to drop bombs on a target, which could be in the vicinity of innocent civilians?"... They don't tell you or make obvious the fact that you WILL kill other human beings, or you WILL get shot in the temple.

    Of all the active serving military personnel in the world, I'm sure only a small proportion have actually been in a  combat situation  wink_o.gif

    Saying that people join the military to kill or get killed, is ludicrous and quite stupid  rock.gif

    P.S.

    Latest Time is a very interesting read...

    Take a look at the cover and spot the woman wink_o.giftounge_o.gif

    I'd say mineral resources probably constitute Nogova's main export, what with the mountains in the North, Desert in the South West.

    I think that instead of voting for the positions, each candidate should have to pass some sort of test, like a quiz on the subject of his requested position, like for DM, you'd have to answer questions about military affairs, etc...Because I don't think voting would work, nobody really knows enough about anybody to be able to vote wink_o.gif
