    That’s how things were when I enlisted and for a number of years. From 2001 things shifted. Between 2006 and my retirement in 2012, we were doing lengthy ruck marches in full battle rattle, including body armor and, naturally, ruck sacks. I also had my aid bag. And that was in the field artillery. In the National Guard!

     

    In one of the Vietnam documentaries I watched a former NVA soldier was mocking the US soldiers for carrying so much crap with them everywhere. He said they found it extremely easy to hit the Americans then run away because they were too loaded down to give chase.

    Just completed the installation of the video monitoring system I bought at Costco.

    When I was young I falsely assumed that being handy would help me attract a female. Unfortunately I learned that what women want is a man rich enough to pay someone ELSE to do the work. And then she can flirt with the handyman while hubby is at work.

    A man approached the very beautiful woman in the large supermarket and asked,

    “You know, I’ve lost my wife here in the supermarket.

    Can you talk to me for a couple of minutes?”

    “Why?”

    “Because every time I talk to a beautiful woman my wife appears out of nowhere.”

     

    On the same note, click on a picture of a pretty woman while surfing on your PC and watch your wife suddenly come into the room. Even when she's supposed to be at work.

    Republic : a government in which supreme power resides in a body of citizens entitled to vote and is exercised by elected officers and representatives responsible to them and governing according to law 

     

    Democracy : a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections 

     

    hmmmm, directly or indirectly, system of representation? Looks like our Republic is a form of Democracy. So if you told me that, I'd just wonder what kind of government action you were trying to justify. 

     

    We are officially a democratic republic.

    Could be worse; they might have used rifle cartridges instead of bolts.

     

    I believe someone tried it and the cartridges didn't explode as the amperage wasn't high enough.

     

    That being said I'm not gonna try it... :blink:
