That's horrible...
american army makes me sick
It is good that war is so horrible, Lest we become too fond of it.
>>7379 And further conclusive proof that America is shit at war. The last time they won a war was WWII, and that was only after they saw who was winning, and joined in halfway through. Same as in WWI.

>>7420 Um, Gulf War I?
>>7420
Um, Gulf War I?
>>7429Not a real war
>>7420IT was a stalemate both times. Nobody was winning in WWI or WWII until America got there.
>>7431The USSR and Britain were pretty much kicking Germany's ass far before the US joined in, you know. Stow the jingoism, please.
>>7432They were like BOOM HEADSHOT while camping spawn those n00bs

>>7433 Which sums up the Americans' attitude to war. Until of course, they join up, play the 'game' for real, then when they get shot, there's no 'respawn', and there's REAL pain & blood involved. And you wonder why so many US soldiers pussy out?I've been in the army (Queen's Own Yorkshire Regiment), and it's no 'game', I can tell you.

>>7448Just as a note, completely unrelated to what you're all talking about, it sounds really faggy when your military service was with the "Queen's Own Yorkshire Regiment".
>>7379and we wonder why they don't like us.>>7448no it doesn't.
kill 1st and think later!!
>>7432They would have had a much harder time of it if there wasn't the Lend-Lease program, The Soviets wouldn't have been able to build a effective mechanized force without all the trucks we gave them. And the British didn't have very good tanks, While the Sherman wasn't the best, It was still better than a lot of the stuff they had until up near the end of the war and the development of the Centurion which is arguably the best Cold War era MBT.>>7430It was more of a live fire exercise than a war.

>>7456British Army unit names are weird... e.g. "91st Princess Louise's Argyllshire Regiment of Foot"
