My heartfelt thanks to all of the Veterans who I never did properly welcome home, and to those relatively few that I did. Your parade is overdue and well-earned. Remember this day, and the days that ...

mntnman007,

NNN has got it wired. Swiftvets has received my money not because I'm a Bush supporter, but because JFnK is spectacularly unfit for the office which he seeks. Or, for that matter, for ...

CM,

The real estate tool is a "planimeter", and as far as I know it measures area, not distance. I've got a little map ruler which you roll down a course and it gives you distance. But it works m ...

Chief,

In that case, B-C as the crow flies is about 40k (just by counting grid squares), A-C is about B-C + 33k. You'd have to pass pretty close to B to get from C to A, unless you are in a helo ...

(r)BS - that's a great map! Where'd you get it?

I've been chasing smaller maps to get lat/long coords for the points - but could not find a map with the VQ3594 coordinate.

You write "John Kerry enrolled in the Navy."

That would actually be "US Naval Reserve". Like the National Guard, among the last to be called to combat.

Other than that nit, a quite concise stat ...

Boundless,

All I can figure is that the M2 is a derivative of the .30 cal designs, M1917 (water cooled) and BMG M1919 (air cooled), both closed-bolt designs. The inner workings are identical in co ...
