Well not really but in terms of traps and stuff
Its like in Band of Brothers when that guy says "The sooner you accept you're dead the better"
True
But yeah I've seen similar stuff
But it's sad and horrifying at the same time
Ive never been in the military, so I can't claim to know what it's like
I mean
Seeing it through online
20kph is faster then most liberals can run
20kph is faster than most liberals can think
is that? concrete armor?
not sure
Not too sure
Shermans are epic tanks change my mind
Military chopper flying over my stand. You can't hear the heli that well in the video but it's really loud
I hunt next to fort polk so they fly over all the time. For example as I'm typing this there is a cargo plane vibrating my stand.
I can hear it.
Blackhawk family helicopter.
A common misconception about Vietnam War US Army Fatigues is that they are olive drab and have normal cloth, no, they aren't and don't, they are tropical green and are cotton ripstop. OD fatigues with regular cloth is the ones from the Korean War, WW2 ones weren't even green, they were a weird mustard color
Agreed
Another misconception is that in the Vietnam war, veterans were the highest casualties, in reality it was Mac Namaras' morons
even then, we only lost around 50,000, compared to the hundreds of thousands of looses we inflicted on the NV and Vietcong forces
Say what you want, but Mac Namara was the most idiotic Secretary of Defense we ever had
Great strategic mind, Terrible efficiency and material workarounds
i know, its just that despite those poor bastards making up most of the casualties, we still lost way less then they did
I know, but I'm talking about his as a whole
fair enough
F-111: Garbage fire that killed its pilots and couldn't hit anything
T114: Slower and less armored APC that catches on fire easily
USS JFK: Aluminum Garbage that catches on fire if a ship grazes its hull
jesus fucking christ
M551 Sheridan: Great tank, horrible ammo and turret problems
for the T114 you might as well just use Guntrucks at that point
There was something better than the T114 the M113, it was 30MPH faster and carried more people (by 5)
and what happened to all those Pershings we had, or even better, the stupid M60s
and get this, it used diesel
Hah
Pershings and M60s are great tanks, but their weight made them not suitable for jungle combat, which is why M551 Sheridans were better, but their turret problems and ammo case ruptures were a huge issue
Something like T92's, HSTVs, M551 and possibly M41's were far superior in jungle combat
