Stop it, I'm getting aroused....

Strange. With your mom it takes pictures of Barry Manilow. To each his own, I guess.
The Greatest of All Time
This thread is going to give me nightmares. I was an RTO for a long time and had to hump an ancient PRC-77 with KY-57 and all that crap. No wonder I have big legs.
I've got a fever...
Better than Globule's mom, who gets aroused at the sight of a donkey.
On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.
Sweet! And yes, I'm old enough to know what those things are.
I'm just stunned that a thread involving primarily Scout and JK took this long before it devolved into a mom joke. And then went right back on topic thanks to Marcus. Amazing!
Sometimes I awake at night in a cold sweat thinking I heard the beep caused by a KY-57 from someone keying their handset. Ugh. I remember those damn cables breaking all the time. All that Vietnam era commo gear was so damn old (just like the old M-60's that couldn't fire 20 rounds without jamming). They were just coming out with Singars (sp?) when I got out. Now, those were high speed with the frequency jumping and what not.
Now they have GPS and laptops. Why, I remember back when we had to land nav by terrain recognition, a compass, and pace counting. Those were the days. I bet they don't even make sand tables any more. Probably use Google earth.
I've carried one. And I'm not old. I'M NOT OLD!!!!! The Canadian Army is just a little slower in buying new stuff by times.
Wait. Canada has an army? I love how educational this place is. Every day I learn something new and exciting.
A) I liked the -60. Still do. I can probably still break it down and reassemble it... B) SINCGARS - Single Channel Ground / Air Radio System (yeah, that's from memory). I still used my compass. I actually bought one, with the tritium. Because I'm geeky like that. I might still have my sand table kit somewhere, too. I do know I have all my reports laminated in a small three-ring binder, with the appropriate alcohol pens. I'm beyond weird.
Non ducor, duco.
Yup. It's on my must-do list. And definitely with a pack. And combat boots. No sissy Asics for this one. It looks freaking miserable awesome.
They even have a navy:
