Ok so in reality what happens to guys like that after they sink a military fighting machine in a river. Just immediately kicked out? My gut tells me that vehicle could’ve made it all the way across if they had closed all the hatches.

In that scenario even cops in the deep south will catch charges if they kill enough people.

If driving a vehicle into a river was an instant out, there wouldn't be a single vehicle left on dry land.

It’s way more difficult to fire people from the military than it should be, which allows the idiots to stick around long enough to re-enlist and reward the next generation of idiots

Russia has made many big claims about their new SAM system in the last few years. Let's see how it performed in actual combat this year.

The PLA demonstrates it’s superior military log technology, the mark of a true 21st century superpower. The west would be wise to take note

"those are apparently superheavy grenades manufactured for Iran by a West German company during the Shah era. They’re called the Nader and there’s no backblast so my guess is it’s a 40mm grenade charge and then the rocket motor kicks in while it’s well away from the user"

Eight years ago on Facebook I posted "10$ for anyone who knows the significance of 39°24'18.2206", -076°17'14.8995"" now I can't loving remember the significance. It's some bit of woods on Aberdeen proving grounds off Skipper Point Cir.

I figure it's military related and I guess I got the coordinates from here somewhere.

Looking through this (actually a pretty cool read) history book, lots happened in the area, but I obviously got the specifics from somewhere. Lunar rover testing? Something to do with Nike? Op: Paperclip?
