I believe the first stinger launched in combat did that exact same thing!

That would certainly make you run faster. They are also French Canadian and not French (for a start there is no French troops if Afganistan)...

Too bad the French will only use it to blow up their own tanks. That way they can surrender faster.

I think it funny how they say it is advanced as a stinger. The stinger is not a tank weapon but rather for air defence.

Yup, they aren't "Arctic" colour.

It was a joke folks, no need to get wound up over it.

Sheep don't shrink when it rains because their wool is naturally full of Lanolin.

Very good for the skin, just don't tell your lady that she is rubbing sheep dags on her face.
