Badgersmilk. There is more to that mag than I expected. If Massad Ayoob is contributing articles than I am in hands down. Like how it discusses on how to live off the land. Right up my alley. Now if I could just hit the lottery and get the hell out of the city. 

I thought you were talking about living off the land. All you need is a knife and some rope right?

Probably should have a thread on its own.

Nope, but I have now. Thanks.

BM, I misunderstood the tone of your post, I thought you were trying to pass yourself off as a Marine. My mistake and I apologize.

Hey Tom, you must be a Marine?

[tombogan03884]

Semper Fi !! there are several on here.

Not just Marines though. This we'll defend.

Lot of them too

I'm cool with everyone saying I'm 16!   Makes me feel younger hearing it!!!   Thanks!

Since we're on the topic, anyone ever take a close look at how different the training and tactics are between Marines and Army?  Pretty surprising!

It's easy to pick a preferance on which would keep you alive longest!  Your leaders may feel your expendable, but dead soldiers dont get much done.  

I'm just surprised how different the approaches are when placed in the same scenario's.  Multiplied when you look at their special forces.

A very good friend of mine was in the interview session at the end of "blackhawk down".  Seeing that and talking to him, he'll tell you ALL about the problems that happen when you combine the forces!  That "put his life at risk more than anything."

Both tactics work.  They sure dont mix!
