@scottiebateman In the 90s a mech I worked with actually turned down a posting to Hong Kong because his wife didn’t want to go. What a nutjob. A queue formed outside the Flt Sgt’s office of volunteers, only to be told “sorry lads, but it doesn’t work like that”.
@EdFreeman9@ConorWilson2@Bullwinkle19 It’s a statement of fact that those who lived through the Blitz did, indeed, suffer from PTSD. My friends dad lived his life with a terrible fear of confined spaces, due to the air raid shelters he hid in, as a child, during the Blitz. You have no idea.
@EdFreeman9@ConorWilson2@Bullwinkle19 I wasn’t there, but I’ve read that The Blitz was pretty brutal. I think about 40’000 people died. It’s not all about “battle wounds” you know? The whole nation was part of the war effort, it’s important to remember that.
@ConorWilson2@Bullwinkle19 With the greatest of respect, sir, I think what many people here fail to understand is that these things just don’t happen without logistics support, intelligence, etc. Everyone who serves is a vital part of a large machine. It’s best to just not interact with them.
@Henry59lewis Bit of a standoff Christmas morning, all kicked off in the afternoon. Lasted into the night, but Meg finally vanquished the squeaky little imposter. 2 & 1/2 yrs ago and she still carries the leg around as a trophy.
@Faustzme@BuzzzStryker@gregbagwell Silly costumes? I would like to formally invite you to London on Remembrance Sunday and watch you tell everyone there that their costumes are silly. I’d recommend The Olde Shades, that’s favoured by the Parachute Regiment. I’d love to see that. War dodger. 😂😂
@LUDENClassics I wasn’t joking. Between Aachen and Koln the autobahn is unrestricted. If I was buying a classic GT, I’d want to know it was fully tested. 😎
@LUDENClassics Which brings me to my next point: my best friend lives in Cologne and I’d like to visit him. I would be willing, at no expense to yourself, to “test drive” that beautiful 456 for you. You’re welcome.
@BuzzzStryker@Faustzme@gregbagwell What the actual hell are you talking about? At what point, in anything I’ve said, could you see masculinity, toxic, or otherwise? Seriously, give your head a wobble and stick to mass shootings. Europe is just fine, thanks. 🙄
