8. Exactly how?

14. The only connection between the Libyan military and the US that I can think of...
Edited on Thu Mar-03-11 12:03 AM by NuclearDem
Is the fact that we trained their ATCs...as a result, they speak mostly English.

But other than that...I'm just confused.

4. This guy is really lucky to be alive.
That wound is really close to his femural artery.

7. I for once applaud it
war is nasty business. It is time people who watch way too much TV see it, on the bright side you ain't smelling it.

Oh and that guy is damn lucky, femoral artery and you can bleed out in thirty seconds.
