State of the Game

All that talk of Russian tanks reminded me of my time in the army. Way back then we spent a lot of time learning and memorising the silhouettes of Russian military vehicles and planes, just in case the Cold War really wasn't over and we would, you know, have to recognise them.

Then when in the UN service in Croatia I encountered the same vehicles over the place, in nice UN white with black text and our pretty blue UN flag with the UN crosshair target on it.

UN fortunately there are always some higher goals, you can't save everyone etc etc.
NO offense intended ;)
I was indirectly involved in one death. A gypsy kid tried to jump onto our rubbish truck as it was rolling into the rubbish tip area. He slipped and fell between the truck and the trailer and got run over before we could stop the truck.

So my score of lives saved coming out of the service is a solid -1.

That picture confuses me.

It's a British L85A1, but doesn't look quite like British DPM. And I can't work out how he's got the camo lapels with a white shirt sleeves...

And of all the things in this thread, this is what concerns me!

This is allegedly the original Photo.
