    Top 5 things I saw in America which, as a Canadian, freaked me right out

    Zell, your a genius. A comic genius. I cant imagine the terror you felt in that musical number. My God man, how did you cope? You stay safe zell, and for God's sake, stay out of Toronto, that place must be a death trap!

    Top 5 things I saw in America which, as a Canadian, freaked me right out

    Thats gold. Good stuff. I never went to America when i was over there. I met a few of them and that was enough for me. Some i'm sure are great people, others ruin it for everyone else. I met a Texan who said "Australia? Thats a...big country right?", I replied, "Yeah, its pretty massive i...

    Humbling Petawawa tribute!

    That was awesome! Good to see a few of the Dragoons got their faces on the screen too. Like i commented, Pet isnt the greatest place on earth but its different to anywhere else. And i suppose that could be a good thing.... maybe. :P

    Death from Above

    Wasnt that an RPK with a belt containing around 14thousand rounds? It was definitely from the hip. These videos are great. The fly boys are so relaxed about it, makes you realise that there are some fantastic operators out there. Keep up the good work.

    Buying/selling Medals Superthread [merged]

    Just one little thing here. The last medal here http://www.medalsofwar.com/camp4.html is a 2003 Iraq gong that someone is selling. I think thats a crying shame. I feel dead sorry for the bloke to think that he's got to the stage where he would perhaps have to sell that.

    Armoured Soldier Questions

    Thats not too different to the RAAC ASLAV course though it seems theres a lot more inspections going on. One question, whats "My Boy Willy"? I've heard of that somewhere before. I may have to search but its an old song thats been modified to be a tankie song isnt it? Sounds like a top course...

    Danish Leo's in Afghanistan

    That looks awesome. The cam nets are grand. I just wish, as a former M113 crewie, i could see more of the carrier in that second photo. Still sweet as though.

    Bored? Cold? Wish you were on some tropical beach?

    Sorry, i cant hear you, the music is up too loud and i'm concentrating on the telly. Something about me being the "Evangelicest of Hale's"... Pwoa, this sweat is something to behold. Looks like i ought to crack another beer. As my troop Sarge used to say, "Hydrate or die". Seriously though. I'd...

    Bored? Cold? Wish you were on some tropical beach?

    Haha, not here in Melbourne. Its 1121 and its already 35. Good times. Queensland is copping a lot of rain i hear. Wes would know better then i though. Darwin had a cold snap recently, the temperature got down to a numbing 24 i think. And thats no line! That's the coldest its been there since...

    Bored? Cold? Wish you were on some tropical beach?

    I dont know about you Wes but i'm struggling in this weather. I spent today with a couple of mates, sitting in a pool, drinking beer, watching the cricket and avoiding the heat on another 40degree day. Leave is tough. And like you my suntan is starting to leave me, one strip at a time. Another...

    Horatio Hornblower

    When i was a little kid my dad read to my brother and i. I loved them and still reread them now. What i loved about the telemovies was how true they were to the books, there are marked differences obviously (Midshipman Kennedy for example) but all in all the films stayed true to the book. I...

    MRAP Vehicles proving worth in Iraq

    I think "Silk Armour" is a joke about the armour being useless. Thats the inference i got though i could be reading it wrong. You know what i mean, silk isnt really known for its bullet/IED resistant qualities. It would make a Humvee look dead pretty though.... ;D

    Australia Releases Hicks

    That makes a lot of sense. He's a bloke i reckon should rot in Prison. He seems like a total scumbag who decided that the infidels deserved killing even if he was one. Thanks T6

    Australia Releases Hicks

    He's a fair dinkum dickhead, thats for sure ;D Whats happened with that bloke? The bleeding left havent busted him out have they or does everyone agree that he's a deadset mind boggling Islamist spaz? Didnt he have some qoute that he wanted to kill Americans or am i getting my wires crossed? He...

    Australia Releases Hicks

    And it'd be foolish to think he was. He never fought about coalition troops though and he never attempted to carry out attacks on the west. Also, he and his lawyers argue that he surrended to the Northern Alliance and didn't attempt to fight them. He was supposedly guarding a tank, on his own...

    Australia Releases Hicks

    I'm going to cop it for this but... That photo of him with the RPG was taken when he was fighting against the Serbs in Bosnia. Its got nothing to do with why he was arrested. He came back to Australia like many people did after the Bosnian War and we all thought he'd done good fighting against...

    PT workouts: What to wear

    Pants while your swimming? You must desperately want to finish last and perhaps drown. Just roll with it mate, (pun fully intended) Go with the flow.

    Australian Christmas Day Shocker - Granfather Murdered Over 'Beer' On The Beach

    The phrase "Suffer in your jocks" springs to mind! Bad luck with that. You've probably already done the drunk and debauched New Years thing to death though. You must be tired of it by now... Haha, alright, maybe not. Remind me of what happened in Arakun, i cant think of that right now but i'll...

    Australian Christmas Day Shocker - Granfather Murdered Over 'Beer' On The Beach

    They ought to hunt these animals down and punish them. At every stage, in every article i've read about this, the gang appears to be in the wrong. They stole drinks from the blokes esky. He challenged them but rather then standing down and admitting they were wrong, they went and gathered more...
