  1. I just wanted to say that after the headaches of trying to get Mig Alley to play without dumping me to the desktop, a dose of CM made me fell better. After jerking around with some piece of crap software its nice to relax with somthing you know is gonna work.( I'm glad I waited till MA was $19.99.)

  2. All the mods are great. But this weekend I did a reformat on my C drive for a couple of reasons. The major reason was Flight Simulator 2000.And I had installed and removed alot of other programs. It was getting all crapped up with a years worth of addons. I saved all my CM mods to Superdisk. I re-installed windows, Flight Sim 2000, and CM. I don,t think I am going to install all the mods again because it sure runs smoother without them.Running P3-500,256sdram,Voodoo3 3000. Well I might install the smaller more accurate flags. The game is still just as intense. And I probably will still download all the new mods for use on next years system.

  3. I thought they were not allowed by the Geneva convention. They were used in WWI and Vietnam. We had a couple of girls training with us when I qualified on the shotgun in 71' and when they shot from the kneeling position the training seargent put his boot on the back of the girls shoulders so the kick would'nt knock them down. I would have liked to have seen one of those shotguns with a bayonet attached as you could attach one. Once I got out of AIT we never took our shotguns out of the armory once in the two years I was in the Army. I never saw the grease guns go out either.

  4. I was talking to a WWII US army artillery vet and got some interesting info. He said that on the advance into Germany in '45 that the biggest problem was a shortage of tires. There was so much schrapnel and other debris on the roads that ruined tires that they would stop, take the good tires and wheels off the vehicles and load them on a truck. Then truck them back and put them on their other vehicles they had left behind. They repeated this process as the advance continued.
