I really didn't think that the troops in the pic were on the way to get me.

The pic was just interesting because of the choice of armament, and I think that arming a squad in such a manor is very mission specific.

Overall, my comments I think, have been directed to possibility of a continental build up and to the potential "Need" of 1 million troops.


Let us so live that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.

There is a great deal of pain in life and perhaps the only pain that can be avoided is the pain that comes from trying to avoid pain.
