That's called discipline, some folks in the military think they are exempt of orders and SOPs.

Pure warrior, something sorely lacking in today's Army. You don't make general unless you play politics. Have a one star as a good friend, he is a warrior and I watched him rise through the ranks. Never got another star for that reason, didn't play the political games.

My favorite automatic. Nice article, enlightening! Colt put out a vintage model about ten years ago or so, I think it has some additional safety features and it has the lanyard loop on the bottom of the grip, very cool. Colt only made a limited number of them I believe. The swamp or forest...

What a terrific story! Especially so as my father was a gunner on a B24. A good American and after the war successful business man. RIP old man!

Was in RVN in 67 and saw many of these aircraft and A1Es' providing CAS for us. Didn't know they where so dangerous to fly but they did save a lot of troops lives. We where happy to see them when it was needed. There where a lot of F4s' also doing the CAS thing for us.

Good article. So where can you buy it? Did a search and came up with nada even at D&L Sports site. SO? WHERE?

Nice article. Have read one of Plaster's books on SOG and a few others that had volunteered for SOG. The best books I have read are by a former SOG fella' named Nick Brokhousen. We Few and Whispers in the Tall Grass are the titles. These two books are excellent with no punches pulled, by that...

Being a Naval Aviator off of a US Carrier has to be the best job in the world.

My all time favorite uncle was in the 1st Marine Div. He was wounded on Guadalcanal but returned to duty. He never talked much about any of the islands after Guadalcanal that he landed and fought on. I still have the Japanese rifle and bayonet he brought back from Guadalcanal, even has a few...

The best, American Iron is what it is.

Great A/C. Did no-com lase missions with them, very exciting is an understatement. Also did CSAR for a Navy Air Group and they called punching out blowing glass. So on our ready room door we posted a sign for them. "You blow glass we will come get your ***". They loved it! Naval Aviators we...

Excellent article. Enjoyed the information as I have never read anything about these weapons before.

Ditto, tired of the PC crowd and their absolute ignorance of our history.

My Father was a gunner on a B24. Started out as a belly gunner cause he was short. Then they put him in the nose gunner position. He was on many of the big raids like the Schweinfurt ball bearing raids. When the German 262s came out he downed two of them. He said the pilots must have been...

Great article, just watched 30 Seconds Over Tokyo last night so this is the capper.

Great bird and nice article. Rode and jumped from sh!thooks quite often in the Army. Did static and HALO out of them and it was always a 'blast'. The only down side on these birds for passengers is the noise level, it is incredibly loud and very high frequencies. If you didn't have hearing...

Knew the WAD also on a somewhat personal level. Great guy and a warrior. you and I may have met once in Kuwait or somewhere.

Silly article.

If you spend a lot of time in the boonies old school bushing is best. Maintenance in the field must be simple and fast. Been walking all day on a hunt or field trip and when you make camp you really want to eat and sleep so cleaning the firearms and blades must be stress free and fast.
