Coventry England. Apparently the locals are tired of the Antifa/BLM shitbags vandalizing their property. Two of them get chased down an ally and trapped by a mob of people.



Translation for the yelling policeman...

Stand Still Laddie. How can you have any pudding? How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?

Every man has his likes and tastes, I think she’s outstanding, that rear shot is sweet, I like her...all the way. Not being argumentative with you geek65, I’ll take’er. 😎

As you say, we all like different things, I prefer less muscle and more feminine looking. You are more then welcome to that one :)

I always wondered how you snuck up on the enemy with 15 Hueys.
We didn’t. This is a heliborne assault. Moving what looks to be a battalion of warriors.
each sortie landing at the pick up point would load six to 8 mf’s and lift out in seconds.Wave after wave would follow and after the first birds dropped troops at the LZ, they lift and head back for another load.
those arriving would move off in their company’s assigned direction and the lz would be clear (except for pathfinders and security perimeter) for the next wave.
seems like we moved a company at a time per wave but that is dictated by the landing zone size more than anything.
scariest thing was to circle into the downwind leg, and look at the lz we were headed to. Red smoke meant deep do do was waiting. Over turned helicopters meant casualties already on the ground. The big assault on Veghel (1968) in I-corps was most of the first brigade, 101 in one day.
All those hueys, converted gun ships (we did not have cobras just quite yet) and artillery pounding g the hills plus fast movers, no. We didn’t sneak up.
even later when we’d drop in on a patrol with just one ship, we had to land and take off several times to hopefully confuse the NVA as to when we were getting off. Sometimes it worked other times it didn’t.

Specialist Jason Mike fired his M-9 service pistol at the advancing enemy as he helped pull wounded soldiers out of the line of fire. He provided them life-saving medical treatment and as the enemy advanced closer, grabbed the injured soldiers' heavier weapons to fight back. His aggressive actions against the enemy and initiative providing medical care to his fellow soldiers saved the lives of at least 3 wounded and helped thwart the ambush. For his heroism, Mike was awarded the Silver Star.
"...Spc Mike's heroic actions on 20 March 2005, during combat operations in Iraq, contributed to the overwhelming success of the Multi National Corps-Iraq mission. While serving as the Medic for RAVEN 42, in the 617th Military Police Company, 503d Military Police Battalion (Airborne), the 18th Military Police Brigade, Spc Mike supported a counterattack of anti-Iraq forces (AIF) who were ambushing a convoy with heavy rifle fire, machine gun fire, and RPGs. He engaged the AIF with his M-9 until his fellow soldiers fell injured. Spc Mike immediately pulled the wounded soldiers out of the line of direct fire and returned fire with the injured soldiers' weapons. When the threat was eliminated he provided medical aid to his critically wounded comrades. His actions saved the lives of the three wounded soldiers and numerous convoy members."
 
I’ve seen a few fires like that in Eastern Washington.

So, if anyone, anywhere, ever claims again that you cannot take on an adversary with a rifle with just a pistol, I can smack them???

That was an awe inspiring account of pure courage and grit...

A friend of mine who has since passed was with the 7th Cavalry and Hal Moore at Ia Drang. He had an interesting description of the events.....
