When proven wrong you throw an insult like a monkey at the zoo throwing poo.

Or maybe you just behave like a troll.

Because if it writes like a troll,
Throws insults like a troll,
Dodges discussions like a troll,
Parrots propaganda like a troll,

Then it’s probably a troll.

...for us ground pounders.

Can you say something in UTM?

Many many years ago, I flew practice CAS missions in the Central European Buffer Zone. The Forward Air Controllers would always give the target coordinates in UTMs. We would always reply Lat Longs.

In today's fighters it is all done by data link.

When it can’t make a point on the facts it resorts to insults.

It’s just a troll.

I am growing more and more of the belief you aren’t just a RuZZian but a Dirty RuZZian.

You support Ukraine; therefore, you support the Banderist neo-Nazi infested ZelenskyIdiot’s Regime

Your logic, if we can call it that, shows that you support the murder of children, the rape of teenagers, the bombing of hospitals, and all of the other outrages committed by the Russian invaders.

Don't get too excited by this picture, even though it shows something you support.

“The Forward Air Controllers “

I worked with a guy who was a FAC in Vietnam. It was some slow plane. He said Viets would target the FAC because if it was shot down, the air attack would end.

I always admired that guy.

You seem to know already.

Use that crystal ball of yours, throw more bones, read more entrails and reveal it....

"All Russian state schools now begin the week with new flag-raising ceremonies and a rendition of the national anthem at the order of the Kremlin."
All American male students in high school should be taught military drill, manual of arms commands, firearms safety and range firing with a military longarm. Those that self identify as other than male should be excused.

The Vietnam "Slow" FACs would have flown:

O-1 Bird Dog

O-2 Skymaster...Sometimes called Push Me Pull You or Suck & Blow:

Or, later in the war an OV-10 Bronco

I know quite a few pilots who flew these aircraft in Vietnam.

The FACs would search for ground activity and then vector the Fighters to drop bombs on the target. The FACs would mark the target with Willy Pete (white phosphorus) rockets.

In the Vietnam version of "Droned", FACs would often carry empty mayonnaise jars and hand grenades. They would pull the pin and carefully place the armed grenade into the mayonnaise jar. When dropped out the window, the mayonnaise jar would break when hitting the ground and the grenade would explode several seconds later.

- Modern tanks, jets and ATACMS

- Putin to face war tribunal

-NATO membership after the war

@visegrad24

Today is the 83rd anniversary of the Soviet Union’s invasion of Finland, which started the Winter War.

The Red Army suffered 160 000 killed over 3.5 months, while the Finns lost 25 000 soldiers.
