Match,
I just want to know if you are married and if so, happily?
I’ve never said this before, to a man, but you are a hunk and I’m thinking of leaving the wife and kids just to “stalk” you. I hope you don’t mind.

Get in line, Steve 1/75 has been hiding in the bushes for days just trying to get a peek at my ass. He's a wierdo.

"Doc" is no better, but we all knew that already.

Navy, it's not just an adventure, it's away of life.

The belt wasn't a problem for me. I carried a cut-off RPD on a heavy team, raid type mission. Between the time I test fired and we got on the ground the gas adjustment plug ( it had four settings) had loosened. As soon as the gunships left the LZ we got into a firefight and my RPD became a bolt action machinegun bang/load/bang /load .......oh shit!

BWT AM is the soldier with the RPD by any chance named John "Hammy" Houser, he looks familiar.

Hey Tuukka:

I would be interested in a winter survival thread in the SF Fieldcraft forum. Any chance you'd be willing to start one?

The SAT dish.

Looks like the exhaust to a generator coming out of the that grey box.

Let me look at it some more and I will get back with ya.
