Remember my Warbrother, it is not the speed one attains, but the sticktoeveness applied in the long run that counts for a win.
And, we the professionally deformed operators, differ from the rest of the world because when told: "Bet you can't do this" we all had replied with:
"EYAH, WATCH ME!" :D

Welcome!
Thanks again for the seafood feast back on Day 1, RR'07!

Glad you finally found the patrol base, since every time a 'Nam vet signs up, you push me further back down the age curve here. :twisted:

Welcome, Brother! I'm glad you figured out how to navigate a bit. Sorry for the delay in answering your emails...the firewall at work blocks my home email and this site. Good to have you here.
