Bullethead Posted June 18, 2000 Share Posted June 18, 2000 A pox on gloaters May pus flow from their johnsons Like a waterfall ------------------ -Bullethead It was a common custom at that time, in the more romantic females, to see their soldier husbands and sweethearts as Greek heroes, instead of the whoremongering, drunken clowns most of them were. However, the Greek heroes were probably no better, so it was not so far off the mark--Flashman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

von Lucke Posted June 19, 2000 Share Posted June 19, 2000 To steel our souls against the lust of ease; To find our welfare in the common good; To hold together, merging all degrees In one wide brotherhood;-- To teach he that saves himself is lost, To bear in silence though our hearts may bleed; To spend ourselves, and never count the cost, For others' greater need;-- To go our quiet ways, subdued and sane; To hush all vulgar clamour of the street; With level calm to face alike the strain Of triumph or defeat;-- This be our part, for so we serve you best, So best confirm their prowess and their pride, Your warrior sons, to whom in this high test, Our fortunes we confide. --- from "Pro Patria" by Owen Seaman.

Chupacabra Posted October 12, 2000 Share Posted October 12, 2000 Soft footfalls whisper through the trees. Too bad there's an ambush up ahead. All hail the Air Force! Once there were many Panzers now the field is still. Recon infantry outpaces its tank support Why can't tanks cross fords? Wonderful liquor! The advancing GIs have captured Calvados. Spent cartridges fall and rest among the stones and bones of bloody France. My Outlook has not chimed in a long time. Where are all the bloody files? ------------------ Soy super bien, soy super super bien, soy bien bien super bien bien bien super super.

I thought him illiterate. You learn something new... Artillery falls on empty ground. At whom do you shoot, precisely? Three platoons or more, numbers are irrelevant, the winner is clear. I wouldn't have thought Shermans could kill Panthers from the front, but sho 'nuff. Maybe Andreas can teach you some tactics when he prevails as well. ------------------ Soy super bien, soy super super bien, soy bien bien super bien bien bien super super.
