Year we even started to grow TCs in some small greenhouses

We put a gunner and a TC into them and was told that in 2018 a new TC would emerge as in 2 TCs :D

 

By the way the Tank on the banner is Abaddons

Hangover, schmangover

 

If you drink my Rum, you dont get a hangover. Only the TC and Gunner dared .... And they had been on a binge the night before, and my Rum doth breathed life into to them again.

Pax Vobiscum.

If It was not for the Modern Leo, and CV90, I would think this was a cold war era exercise.  I like the tanks ripping past old folks, kids, and babies in strollers a few feet away.  Live fire within a stones throw from the crowd.  I can't imagine something like this going on here in the U.S.A.  It would be the best 4th of July ever IMO.

WE in Canada also don't let people get this close to our firing, was very fortunate last year to see this show, I'm planning another visit in 2018.  :)
