Darn it,My brother is a tanker,them M1 Abrams are good.

[donna]

I'm excited.

Ah, we dont need to show em off, we got em.

Let NK and Russia do that ####.

The men and regular vehicles are enough.

[Balding_Eagle]

Bet we get tanks too.

[dragnet2]

Tanks tear up the streets...

I’m wondering if they checked in with POTUS before releasing this memo.

[Robert DeLong]

He can have them launch an AGM-114 hellfire missile at them. 8>)

Put them on lo-boys and drive the route

I was wondering about the ground pressure. It appears that an Abrams has about half the ground pressure of a passenger car, and about 1/6 the ground pressure of a racing bike.

I want tanks. Battleships, too. Throw in a mortar and artillery demonstration. And I don’t care about DC streets. That’s what Home Depot made hot tar patches for.

““include a heavy air component at the end of the parade,”

I hope that includes a Aurora fly-by.

Its the neutral steering that’s the problem...one false move and the pavement is screwed up.

[Mr. Blond]

Strykers will do.

[mdittmar]

That’s a good idea.

Abrams is fun to knock around in, for a while.

[PAR35]

Truck in a thousand prisoners to put down a 1’ layer of sand, and then shovel it back up. Better yet, round up all the college students in the metro DC area and put them to work.

Just so you know, I reported your post as abuse.

[mdittmar]

Were you in one?

Somewhere, way, way off in the distance, Oddball from Kelly’s Heroes just said “Always with them negative waves, Moriarity ... always with them negative waves”.
