For perspective
In 1970, the federal minimum wage in the United States was $1.60 per hour.
So 2,500 hours to buy a new Malibu.
$7.50 min wage today or under $19k for 2,500 hours.
Just rambling
Please take a moment to remember John Cruickshank the last remaining Victoria Cross recipient from WW2. He led a daring raid against a U-Boat and saved his crew in an incredible feat of bravery.

It is not fair to say that 'they don't make them like this any more." Because there are his equals and betters who served in Korea, Vietnam, Somalia and both Iraq and Afghanistan.
But he is the last of a generation of warriors who saved the free world long before most of us were born. And deserves to be remembered by his fellow-warriors and their adjuncts.
RIP, sir. You saw and did things most of us can never imagine. And then went on to live a famiily life as a mild-mannered banker. Nothing could be a greater requiem for a real warrior.

Photo taken on a SWAT deployment a couple of days ago. LE Marksman/Observer deployed on the callout. Neighborhood cat decides it's a good place to catch some sun.
Totally epic photo! Because Cats know who they are safe with. And who is a warm body as well.

Are you sure he wasn't just protecting another family from a LGBT, sir? Just saying.
Speaking of SWAT, hey, man, nice [shot]!

I'm glad this is a classy joke and no one made a Hide and Sikh joke on this tragedy!

If Veer_g was still here he would likely have make it himself. He is just in hiding himself. RIP sir.
Nice. I swear I watched it three times before I posted...looking for any hint muzzle flash/recoil/anything. It seemed too clean. There was just a tiny amount of muzzle movement, so I thought either he has a good grip or perhaps fake (loaded a blank)...but gave them the win.
Good catch. (Also the clown never looked up/around when the crowd let out an asinine roar, so wrote this off to them flying the drones in closer as a distraction.)

It was posted before, somewhere is a more in context video that includes the training aspect.
The size of the crowd is one thing that makes it sus but if you clock the video frame by frame the head snap doesn't match the pop. But, video can still do sketchy things because of frame rate so I searched.
Doesn't make it any less entertaining to watch.

Some will get that!

You were at the Koon?....if I never see that place again it will be too soon. This was in the late 70's....no idea what its like now. But then, aside from flying the only other thing to do there was drink.
And personally, I love Army and Marines....they defend the airbase perimeter. lol
Go to full screen with the video then watch the pistol as the shot is taken. There's no recoil. Pause the video right before the shot is taken and note that it doesn't look like the pistol is lined up on the suspect.
...and don't tell anyone I said this, but we have a soft spot for some AF guys, also—mainly the 'radar guys' we dragged around the world with us (they were always pissing and moaning, but I digress).
Those who know, know...

Looked like he was going for the triple gainer with 1 1/2 twists before that 2nd sudden stop..........
I don’t recall the two jets, but it’s been over 30 years. Street outside Osan AB gate.
The alcoholic concoction or the softball tournament? Of course, the second always ended with the first.
We found out you could buy oil of cinnamon at the drug store , soaked our own toothpicks. Even had a guy sell them for a nickel a toothpick in Jr High until the principal busted him.
I thought it was the plywood silhouettes strategically positioned around the perimeter.
Who's a good boy.....
Now you are reminding me of a character from a book. Cadderly Bonaduce from the Cleric Quintet book series by R. A. Salvatore used "spindle disc's" as weapons. D&d based series set in the Forgotten Realms universe.
I'm going to call myself out first.
NERD!
Yes. Bled all the way around. Then the nail fell off a week or 2 later
Oh I think yall would lol if you knew the tale of me destroying I mean putting together a thermo fit upper and hg. Involves a 12 lb sledge, a shop press and bent things
A man’s got to know his limitations.
Get out and choot something
