Re: Military thread... stripes and stars
Hm... childhood days... just a normal looking day to me. No wonder I was never happy playing with a doll's house, better things to look at. And the 3 tonners going down the street where you live, right past the flat on the next two week exercise.

Thats the 75mm recoilless "rifle".
The Finnish army version is 95mm.
I wouldnt sit on that while its firing.

Also that train tracks behind my house was always full of military things, they even transported Helicopters a few times.
I don't see them as much anymore, the base isn't a main base anymore, and has moved.
There is some training there, but it's an administrative base mow, and for support sadly.

Re: Military thread... stripes and stars
Frosty, it's odd when something you're used to seeing is almost absent. I'd love to stand and watch the trains go by at the back of your house like that. Wow, helicopters. That's something I've never seen. It's amazing how they load all that onto those freight trains really. The nearest I see is at the train stations, the Maersk or Chinese containers going by, wow the speed and bulk of those things. Usually on their way to either Harwich or Felixstowe port I think.
I bet there's not much gold at Fort Knox anymore either...

Re: Military thread... stripes and stars
I see a lot of truck frames, coal, and lumber usually now, and like you mentioned those containers.
Mostly it's just boxcars, they go by a few times a day, not like they used to do though.

Here’s some information on the Russian special. They practice their killing techniques on convicted criminals. I bet that Chinese special forces do this too. https://ca.yahoo.com/news/moscows-speci ... 00063.html

I can see a special trained force coming in, and wiping those fighters out pretty fast.
They better have a good escape plan being in that hole they are in, it's not a good place to be hiding.

Those spetnaz I’ve heard are very hard core.

Re: Military thread... stripes and stars
Here is one not known by most people.
Also what the video doesn't tell you is that the Japanese ate all the deer, and other game on the island, the Crocodiles was in a state of suspended animation from that.
The Japanese just happened to wake them with the smell of blood, and the noise.

Re: Military thread... stripes and stars
I learned new details about this famous battle with the monster crocs and the Japanese such as the British had them surrounded and they were trying to join a larger Japanese unit. About half only made it. The British army could hear their screams which must have been horrendous. Though I like the Japanese they were monsters in war.
