"Bicycles were first used in wartime in 1898, when the U.S. military deployed troops on bikes to help with crowd control in Cuba.
A bicycling corps was set up by South African forces to scout for information on British troop movements in the Boer War.
Clark..........saw the Vietcong use bicycles to carry supplies down the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

Perhaps the ignorant genius believes it would be a good idea to reissue catapults as replacements for artillery, or bow and arrow for M16s, or rocks for grenades, or hot air balloons for the Predators........

Warriors will use the BEST weapons they can get..

"Gen" Clark is a certifiable genius asshole.

This guy Pyntikov actually sounds pretty interesting. But I don't know why he hooked up with Clark. If he's hoping for defense contracts, I think he got the wrong guy for the job.
