[QUOTE="riptragle1953, post: 42285, member: 2328"] There is no difference Trevor.... evil is evil. I believe you speak of Herr Goring's plain to flatten Britton into submission, right? Well it didn't work because the Brits had guts and the willingness to help each other.... a fiercely brave bunch when threatened. Goring failed for the same reason the Vietnamese kicked our ass out of THEIR country.... they were in the right and willing to sacrifice to maintain their way of life. Reading how the British kept their shortage of Spitfires a secret from the Germans is a story in itself..... and how y'all fooled the Germans into thinking you had more Spits than you did is also amazing. So guts and brains can trump brute power. Goring gave up attacking your home didn't he. You guys did that with a far smaller force! (gee I can blab can't I?) I am totally against war and violence..... so Sid is right in one respect ...... but I was totally against it and hated my job. But, under those conditions you better get good to protect your buddies ...... God, country and base-camp preachers who tell you to kill a commie for christ are all bullshit. And, unfortunately, as happened here to me, you have to use your brains and training to save your own life. Oh one more thing kinda for fun ....... I'd like to let the "lets all tote a gun" NRA know a Buck knife can trump two semi-auto handguns. [/QUOTE]
