ISAF on the wall, I always felt so much safer....


Ruhe jetzt, wir sind auf eine tiefe Recon.....hast du Burger King oder eine Bazaar gesehen?

Quiet now, we are on a deep Recon.....have you seen a Burger King or a Bazaar?

I have to love their style though, but always jealous of the coalition groupies.

Does your PX have cigarettes and Mountain Dew?

I love the Germans. I spent some time aboard the Augsburg, an old but tidy frigate. Each day we would have schnapps at 1600 with the CO in the wardroom. The best view I had of their latent capability was touring the Sachsen, their newest "frigate" which was a lot closer to a cruiser. Funny, they finished it exactly to the day after the treaty prohibiting their building anything over 7500 tons expired.

Their ship boarding technique left much to be desired. The G36's they carried were far too large for proper CQB and the high velocity infantry rounds made me damn nervous. Give me a Remington 500 anytime.

What, no belaying pins and cutlasses?

Hey, I proposed that every ship of the line stock a locker full of good ol fashioned cutlasses. Some miscreant coming over the rail to slit some throats in the middle of the night would be unhappily surprised by an angry boatswain's mate with mean coffee buzz on the midwatch!
