Country:  | Oh Hell its on again. Roll up Roll up. And I agree Njaco.
Seems some are like a bear with a sore head Njaco. Best let sleeping dogs lie sometimes instead of igniting another verbal punch up for no point

Country:  | Soren since you decided to start this as a flame thread I should close it again.
However I will just edit your post.
Warning to all:
If this turns into a flame thread it will be closed and offenders will recieve infractions.
If you can all act like adults this thread will stay open.

Country: | I watched the MG vid - not really anything new there. Excellent weapons though, I'd love to get to fire them someday.

| There are only a very few who I consider as tough and well trained as the SAS.

Country:  | Notice on the Waffen-SS videos, it's always the British and Russians getting beaten by them. The Americans never get mentioned as losing.  And while talking about the King Tiger it kept showing the Panther; and while talking about the Tiger it kept showing the Pz.Kpfw IV.

I actually didn't notice it - but I only watched the MG video.

| Hehe I know Plan_D
Try to watch the episodes on the USMC & Rangers, I guarantee you'll drown in all the americana BS 
The SAS runs circles around both.
The SAS, Jägerkorps, GSG & KSK 9 & USN SEALS are the guys which set the std today.
