    Oh, and if you want to read a really harrrowing account of the action faced by the British Paras in Tunisia, look up 2nd Battalion's raid on Depienne / Oudna: Abandoned 50 miles behind enemy lines, they where written off by the High Command --- but a certain Colonel John Frost (you may know that name) led them on a march through hostile territory to their own lines --- loosing 50% of the battalion along the way.

    Funny you should mention that, I am currently playing a PBEM against Lars about that. I think it's called 'written off' too, the way things are going Lars will be lucky to have 50% of his troops left after attacking the airfield.

    Shame on you.

    :rolleyes:

    But "having another" is a given you don't need to actually mention it!

    As for the rest, the thirst is an all consuming constant and can never be fully quenched although we do try.
