rhino 0 #51 March 27, 2003 Quote Then again, the characteristics of these 2 "Marine" units is completely different. The US Marines is comparatively heavy on equipment and logistical support while the Royal Marines tend more toward being "light" infantry & (for want of a better term) skirmishers You don't know much about Marines.. Umm... Think about this.. Marines... Bad ass... Recon Marines... Incredibly bad ass.... Force Recon Marines... Only they know how bad ass they really are. If you study these three types you might be enlightened... Rhino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miked10270 0 #56 March 27, 2003 Quote Oh sure just like the Brits to go in and clean things up after the U.S. has softened them up..... Like WWI - was that 1914-1918 or 1917-1918? Like WWII - was that 1939-1945 or 1941-1945? Like the time a dictatorship invaded the sovereign territory of another country - we really should apologise for finishing the Falklands one before the US could join in... Maybe if we'd strung it out for another year or so.... On a serious note I just heard their was a friendly fire incident between US armour & US Marines - 32 Marines wounded, but thank god none killed. Forgiv me, but it'll take a while for me to get back int a pi$$ taking mood. Mike. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
