Oh, it is almost exactly what Borderlands had it as. Neat! Is there a specific reason Toyotas are used (cheap, tough, towing hitch used to mount a flamethrower)?

Other trucks are used too. Such as this guy, who sold his work truck under the assumption the group auctioning it abroad would repaint it first: ![]() Originally, the news didn't blur out the phone number.

Obviously not a Vickers Mark 1 machine gun on that technical. Shameful false advertising. Where the heck is Quality Control when you need them?

Unless that was for something else and I'm also getting wires crossed. E: well poo poo, that's definitely a knight but not the ad I was thinking of. Maybe it was for a video game or something.

The most influential recruiting media at my high school was the navy training film about synthetic line snapback we had to watch in shop class.

Yup, they made all of us watch that in boot camp and then again prior to the first time I was on the sea and anchor detail. Those lines will remove you from the land of the living so fast if you do not respect them and conduct yourself appropriately.

One day I met a Mormon Merchant Marine who looked exactly as apple-cheeked and innocent as the stereotype, and I thought a movie about his reaction to the pure degeneracy he must have seen around the world would be so worth the ticket price I think about that guy every now and then when I read posts like yours
