Depends, did you write him a six page essay talking about nothing? If you did, you probably are. Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk

Take two of the balls, place to one side. Split the other 6 into two 3's, place on scales. discard the heavier three balls, and the seperate two. Of the 3 remaining balls, seperate one and weight the other two. Find the lighter, or if they are the same the ligher one is the seperate one. If both sets of three are the same discard all 6, and go back to the two. Place both of these on the scales, pick the lighter of the two. I hope this makes sense, i had to think for a minute.

To answer the initial question, its easy. Welcome them back. Buy them a beer, pat them on the back and tell them "we are glad your home safe" Ask if they want to talk about it, if they dont, then dont. If your an ex-serviceman or serviceman yourself, then a nod and a beer will suffice. Best thing anyone ever said to me post tour.. "Great tan, been anywhere nice?" I laughed hard.

It is fully encripted and they wont have access. This technology is already in use with certain units. They will only be allowed to see what we want them to see, wether its correct intel or red herring at our own discretion.

The Britsihg army still use Pinzgauers, although they are a little more modern than that one, they are still very recognisable as one. Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk

I give up. Maybe terrorism is the way ahead. I sometimes wish I never read SC. Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk

I do get it. I know they think these are heroic acts. However, I happen to know right from wrong, and knowingly blowing up innocent civilians is wrong. Paint it any colour you like, its still terrorism. Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk

No hero ever blew up bus full of civilians on their way to work, or cut off a charity workers head to make a point. Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk

Can you expand on this...? Lets pretend I know nothing...oh wait.. I do know nothing.. Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk -
About the same as the French forces in Chad/ivory coast/Central Africa/Vietnam were. Lets not turn this into a mud slinging contest. The initial issue was about that Marine.

DV camera/software not flying related question.
GeordieSkydiver replied to GeordieSkydiver's topic in Photography and Video
I have a JVC DV camera with a firewire connection. When I d/l the movies to my PC using that connection, what software is best for quality? I just use microsoft movie maker and the quality is terrible (compared to playback from camera to TV). What does everyone else use? Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk -
I'm sorry, I should been more precise in what I was saying, I meant I have more experience in what that Marine was going through. Which was the orginal topic here. As for your other points, Bombing, yes, raid No. Yes. No, I got down, bullets hurt. Then I did my job. I still dont agree with you, but I see why you have such a jaded opion. Rhode Island sounds terrible these days. Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk

You cant second guess terrorists. I hoped she'd survive, but hope wasn't enough. She opposed the war totally, and did more than anyone to help. I hope she didn't suffer.

I would never claim to have all the answers, but I do claim to know and have expierienced more than you. That much is obvious. Dont worry, we'll get to them one day, their on someone's shitlist. (this is a joke by the way) I hate war, because it makes me have to go away and do things I dont want to do, for the ungrateful. But hey, I could say NO right??

Spoken like a true non-combatant. Its ALL about percieved threat. The one time you don't act, that could be the one time that costs you your life. Also, if this guys was Rambo, why didn't he kill the other guy in the room? Because he didn't percieve him as a threat, he had his hands in the air in a show of surrender. = no threat. I dont think anything about wether he had a bomb or not, thats not the issue. When your driving down the street, and you apply the brakes because some guy looks like he's gonna pull out in front, and then he doesn't, did you make the right choice or the wrong choice? The answer is, no-one knows, cause they weren't fucking there, and cant possibly know what was going on in your one-track mind. Take note.

How many Iraqis support this Terrorist army? All of them? Half of them? The majority? Answer--- A very small amount. If the whole Iraqi population or even half of it supported these fuckers then no army on this planet could move against them. Its been proved time and time again, you cant defeat terrorism by force, if the population is behind them. (vietnam anyone, NI for us Brits) If you dont have the backing of the majority of the people then your not an army, your a terrorist.

Firstly, you have no idea wether or not that young Marine thought that guy was a threat or not. I'm sick of saying 'you dont know'. Secondly, I didn't say 'he did the right thing' I said 'he made the right choice' The right choice being the one that kept him alive, no-one knows the outcome if he hadn't of shot the guy. Its easy to be judgemental when your 4000 miles from there and safe. If a US special forces soldier got shot in the head, I'd be pissed, because it probably meant someone made the wrong choice and didn't eliminate a potential threat.

Couldn't put it better myself. As I said earlier. You cant know what its like until you've been there in that situation. So dont diss those who allow the majority to sleep soundly at night.
