Thermal sights are so Awesome not even johnny jackrabbit can escape them...


They are pretty amazing. I've priced them between $12,000 - $20,000.

Glad you had fun.

***I'm ashamed to admit that this was me and my crew (if you are meaning in the batallion and not just your company. I got a really bad chest cold and my platoon leader had to babble about my cancer.  I got yanked out and the PA (when he was actually found the next day) freaked out.  Overreacted, and now I'm pretty much not allowed to do anything.  I tried to sidestep him and went to an Oregon Guard PA, who at least had some cough supressant and were willing to allow me back into the field. Unfortunately I didn't make it out before the doctor with the state command got hold of me. At one point after bugging the brigade and the state surgeon, I was threatened with being chained to a bunk.
I need to make an officer friendly Power Point presentation wbout this so that I can explain it to them easier.

***And Geo Metros make pretty big fires

***Will it be someplace that isn't hard enough to break 4 inch thick tent stakes, and that doesn't have 40 mile an hour sustained winds in the daytime?  Having to wear fleece in June, in Eastern Washington, in the middle of the damn day.  That is the most miserable place I've ever been with the Army.  Ever. Anywhere.

And let's not forget that Matt45 is a great guy to drink with.  In less than a minute he'll forget that he gave you a beer and offer you another.  Then another.

Especially since I'm not even sure if it was his beer he kept offering!
