Are there gonna be girls there? If so I am in! We can roll 2 deep in my Escalante to da place. You never heard about the new APFT Cavey. About 3 or so years ago in an attempt to help bring in more recruits during a big slump in recruiting the Army lowered the PT standards so that more Nintendo kids could pass it and get in/stay in. By the way I am doing one-handed push-ups now while I am typing. Yes my feet are eleveated

Well Cpt. if you consider my Gold 2002 Caddy Escalante SUV ugly...then I am guilty. I consider it classy. As for gizmos....all I have is the thumping sound system and the 22 inch dubs. I consider those as neccesary items....not gizmos. MikeAdam sure seems to like to ride in it.

Hey I think the Air Force and Navy have bombed Afghanistan enough...there is an uglier, more evil target that needs to be taken out no matter what the cost...the TNF EDITION AVALANCHE. Give me a f**cking break...I'm sure we will soon see lots of them prowling the streets of Seattle though. I heard Panther has even been seen driving one around the Pass.

Hey Mike I got an idea on how to get back in shape as far as push-ups are concerned. Everytime we see a new Cpt. post on cascadesprayers we knock out 25. We will be maxing the PT test in no time (the old APFT that is...not this new easier one.)

Ya Ok..how bout the other team be on boards. I'll put some paint on the tips of my .223 rounds tonight and I'm ready to go Panther...you beeeaacch! For my team I pick MtnRgr and his platoon.

Ya that sounds just great Mike...thanks. Do some fu**cking push-ups mountaineer friend!!!!

Yes I think Mary would work just fine for Panther......of course she still has all her teeth though. I have to check with Backcountry but I propose that Team Gander Mountain transforms..or should I say evolve into Team PantherHunter. Yes that would do just fine. Changing times call for changing missions.

Hey I just found a ho for Panther.....the Rainier master Mary!

No teeth....Backcountry can you answer that last question?

Cpt. I'm not out busting crack ho's....I'm looking to help them help our declining economy. W, the only person I could find that will meet up to your standards was Panther's mom.

Oh yea Cpt. I'm doing some push-ups just for you right now. No LOM log around so I'm using the LOM couch.

Hummm...thats funny...I always remember that the best defense is a good offense. Since defense is not part of the Ranger mission I don't see how you would shoot (kill) in defense only. Mntnrngr...they teaching you guys to kill only in defense now? Thats not the way I remember the Ranger Batts. Anyways Panther...who are you and why do you talk about me? One thing I fins funny is "W" may be a hippy but I bet he's flown in more Army helicopters than anyone here combined except the Cpt., Mtnrgr, and that Mike Adam guy. Well I gotta get back to searching for those crack ho's...times a wasting.

Do I support combat operations in Afghanistan? Without a doubt...YES!!! If we do not attack the terrorists and those whom support them...we will just get attacked again and again and the attacks will get worse and worse. Will attacking Afghanistan stop all terrorist attacks? Of course not. It will make it a lot harder for the terrorists though. I don't think we need an all out war however. In fact, since our current military is so weak I am afraid to see them all involved in combat operations because I would hate to see the U.S. embarrssed by their performance. I think we are doing a good job now. The Navy and Air Farce are helping the Northern Alliance do most of the fighting for us. Our special-ops are doing the rest of the work that needs to be done. Throw in some Infantry later on and we will be good. We don't have to fight the whole country...only the terrorist and those who support them. We do need to put the ever-loving fear of God into the terrorists however (the Ranger God that is) and have the Rangers and D-boys (don't forget the SAS)panting down their backs. We need to have these guys so afraid that they can't sleep due to the fear that something (wearing NVG's and carrying an M-4) may come bump in the night. This needs to happen not just in Afghanistan but in every other country these guys hide in as well. To satisfy Gerg..yes I did serve back when the black beret meant something. Many of my buddies are in the various units that are or have already been in Afghanistan. Another point most people forget. Only 10% of the military actually fights. The rest sit back away from the fighting and support the warriors. Most of the remaining 90% of the military can't even shoot their rifle, muck less fight. So far beside pilots the only fighting is being done by about 1/2 % of the military. I don't know what your wife does but unless she is a pilot, in the Infantry, or in Special Ops I wouldn't worry to much. The US Govt. doesnt want the US to see images of support personnel being slaughtered so they won't go in unless the situation is very secure. As far as I'm concerned since I see these regular "troopers" prancing around proudly with black berets on their heads like they are some kind of warrior...let's let them get shot at like a real warrior. Am I all for utilizing maximum violence to destroy the enemy and his equipment and complete the Ranger mission....yes!! Am I for doing it smartly and professionally so as to not embarrass our country...yes. Sorry if I rambled or ranted too much but I just got back from a 10 hour straight drive. I don't mean to offend anyone but Panther...cause I hate him. If anyone else is offended....take it up with me personally...except Panther...screw you. Glad to see "W" is back wasting time on here again. We need to drink some beer and discuss this topic.

Well actually smoking is illegal in any federal building. The Muir hut is a federal building. When Ive seen people puffing away at the Muir Hut they always went outside when asked so I've had no problem with them. I have seen plenty of people come in though and start three of four stoves without opening the door and almost kill people...I have a problem with that. I have also been more pissed at the people who left their bags of crap and piss inside the hut for others to clean. I'd prefer smoke to a bio-hazard anyday. Bottom line is ask them to take it outside without being an a**hole about it....if they don't they are fair game to whatever reindeer games you wanna play. All of us do things that others don't like and as long as someone is cool to you when they ask you to take it elsewhere you should act cool yourself.

When I was still "in" I used to go to Granite and Mailbox a lot. Some of the trails and roads around Greenwater off of HWY 410 are good too since they are somewhat close to Lewis. You can't beat the Muir slog either. I remember a lot of the dudes going to Wally World try-outs used to go to these same places and it worked for them. If you're getting ready for Camp McCall I'd focus a lot on just toughening up the feet.

The Capt. can also participate in training if he wishes...just let me know in advance so I can break out the blank adaptor and blank rounds for your iterations.

You better be at mother**cking parade rest when you talk to me Capt.! That situation you speak of is being worked on right now, how bout' you.

Task Force Sprayer is standing by on the helo pad waiting for word that Bin Workin has been found. We will fast-rope in and neutralize the target with maximum violence.

P.S. No combat training was conducted today due to my logistics snafu yesterday. I like the Tab picture on your last post...I'm so motivated I'm gonna go knock out some push-ups now, S.

Primary marksmanship training for Pvt. Adamson will commence tomorrow morning at o' dark thirty. Well maybe not that early. I have just made a supply run with the TSOV and have 1000 rounds of Mother Russia's finest 5.56mm ball ammunition. I suggest you practice your dime-washer and sight picture alignment refresher training tonight. Tomorrow there will be no time for remedial training as we will be jumping into a hot DZ of Close Quarter Battle combat rifle marksmanship utilizing the M4/Car-15 weapons systems. You will be motivated. I will be conducting link-up operations with follow-on forces at 0900 hrs. I assume you must conduct follow-up operations at another AO at 1000 hrs. so you and I can link-up at a time that is convenient for you. I will not be at my hide site until 2300 hrs or so since I have to seize an airfield at 2135 to secure a landing sight for my R and R/Service & Support element. The uniform for tomorrow will be, 1) American woodland BDU's or British DPM's, 2)watch cap...however for Pvt. Adamson this will include the Kevlar PASGT helmet, 3) eye protection, 4) hearing protection, 5)RACK or LCE, 6)Assault pack, 7) body armor, 8) and sidearm. That is all, S.

Ya, then we'll be able to get all the chicks! God knows Mike needs help getting a girl.

Mike, check your email concerning tomorrow's combat operations. Out

Mike check your email concerning tomorrow's combat operations. Out

That Mike Adamson guy sure is an ***hole. He's just some little punk....why if I had a beef with him I'd kick his *** and teach him a lesson.

The Batt-Boys have landed!!!!! Rain the fires of hell down on the poor bastards. Keep your heads down, brothers!!!!
