Here we go. Get a cup of coffee or a beer and sit down and I'll tell you how everything went to hell. The year was 1942. The US was in full "going to war" mode. The men that were signing up and/or being drafted left gapping holes in our industrial manpower. These holes were filled with wom...

ursavus.elemensis ~ I must admit I am sure you are making such statements to inflame and provoke. Well, sir, mission accomplished. To make such comparisons between R.E.L. and such murderous scum is beneath contempt. He fought for a homeland INVADED by northern aggression, both political and military...

I have four named at this time; My AR is Vera, after a line from one of my favorite television shows. "You see, Vera? You dress yourself up, then you get taken out somewhere fun." Vera is the name of the pistol the wife knows to get if I ever mention the name. Just in case da-shiong bao d...
