Holy cow! Ghurkas!
The Brits are holding nothing back.
I'd really hate to have those tough little guys with their big Ghurka knives coming after me.

The only problem I can see with this beautiful doctor is that I'd be tempted to shoot myself in the butt just to get a chance to visit her!!

Grenada? Pffft. I singlehandedly won every bar fight in Subic Bay, then shovelled all the ash back into Mt. Pinatubo.

I love the picture of the soldier giving a drink of water.
It's magnificent! The contrast is amazing - A highly trained military man who is human enough to give his enemy a drink of water. Liberals do not understand WHO WE ARE.

Ah, the B52: among the greatest aircraft in the history of flight. I salute the American ingenuity which designed and built it. I also salute all members of our Armed Forces, the British and Australian Armed Forces. God bless and keep them, every one.

To: Diogenesis
Those are some happy looking POW's. They're probably so relieved to see this thing start so they can go home.
To: Diogenesis
WOW!!! That is one hellacious scene. I'd say that's the best visual representation of 'shock and awe' I've ever seen.
