Does this guy speak the truth? He's an American who fought in Vietnam.

Why do those inadequate little men in Washington and New York dream of new wars? Because the empire is near a tipping point.
Washington must either either start a war in Korea, or gets faced down by the North, its carriers ignored, its bombers “sending signals” and making “shows of force” without result. For the empire this is a loss of face and credibility, and an example to others that America can be challenged.
Iran has not caved to Washington’s threats and sanctions and clearly isn’t going to. Another strategic loss, a big one, unless–the hawks seem to think–remedied by a war. Iran wants to trade with Europe and Europe likes the idea. Worse, Iran is becoming a vital part of China’s aim to integrate Europe and Asia economically. To the empire this smelñls of death. The frightened grow desperate.
China shows no signs of backing down in the South China Sea. For Washington, it is either war now, when thinks it might win, or be overshadowed as China grows.
Russia has irrevocably gotten the Crimea, is quietly absorbing part of the Ukraine, and looks as if its side is going to win in Syria. Three humiliating setbacks for the empire. Loss of control of the Mideast would be a strategic disaster for Washington.
Continued control of Europe is absolutely vital. European governments have groveled but now even they grow restless with Washington’s sanction against Russia, and European businessmen want more trade eastward. Growing trade with Asia threatens to loosen Europe’s shackles. Washington cannot allow this.
When you have militarily stupid politicians listening to pathologically confident soldiers, trouble is likely. All of these people mightreflect how seldom wars turn out as those starting them expect. Wars are always going to be quick and easy. Generals not infrequently advise against a war but, once it begins, they bark in unison.

Are Aircraft the top of the military food chain?

It seems they're capable of destroying everything (including the dedicated AA units meant to destroy aircraft)

alright milfags and leofags
What do your qualification shoots look like? And/or how has it changed since you started? What are you shooting at, from how far, for how many rounds, with what as a passing grade?

Or put more simply, what does your agency expect you to be able to do with your weapon?

The US 3rd Armored Division arrived in Cologne that day. Two medium Sherman Tanks supported the infantry as they advanced toward the river and the cathedral. There was too much debris on the streets, so they stopped just a little ways from the cathedral.

The lead Sherman was hit by a German tank, destroying the Sherman and killing three of the crew of five. The GIs quickly learned that the enemy tank was a medium Panther tank, an older model with a command hatch above the gun turret that could easily destroy a Sherman tank.

The other Sherman realized it was no match for the Nazi tank and retreated. They called a nearby T26 (Pershing) for help and waited. The US T26 was an extraordinary tank, and very rare. It was the masterpiece of World War II tank development by the US.

That there was a T26 in Cologne, much less only a few streets over was an extraordinary piece of luck for the advancing Americans. The Pershing was much better than the Sherman and was pretty much an equal to any tank in the world.

As Sunzi writes, there's nothing an overwhelming ballistic missile salvo can't overcome. Very wow. Much ancient Chinese wisdom.

I've come to wonder, are all Mosins with bent bolt handles the product of inbred Bubbas and Fudds with no regard for the weapon? Or were some manufactured that way? Is it an inherently bad thing for the bolt handle to be bent?

Well /k/, my uncle was diagnosed with pancreatic and liver cancer on Monday. He passed away in my arms tonight. I just inherited all of his land, his jeep, and his guns. What I want to know is, how do y'all cope with the loss of your hunting and shooting buddy? I can't imagine not picking on each other over who killed the biggest deer, debating which caliber is best, telling fisherman tales, and all that. How do you deal with loss /k/? I had to call his hospice nurse, call 911, all of my family and his friends, and all of that. I'm gonna be uploading some pictures from a local museum that I went to because I showed him these neat guns earlier today.

Hello /k
Op is looking at revolvers, specifically model 29 44 magnums and 357s, all 4 inch.

What does everyone think about these?
Which round is a better man stopper with better damage/cavitation?
