Maj.Hans Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Yes I did notice that the cupola was on the wrong side. Actually that's just one of the super rare M60L models made for use by a left handed crew. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLabor Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 So I guess you are new to defence?These issues plague defence structures across the world. Well as a civilian, that's still hard to see my friends in the army trying to do their best and fail because of that. At the same time it's not surprising. Since I was twelve, with Pentagon wars, I realized that these elements are the most recurring over the world. Gawd, I hope he hasn't seen this old one...http://i.eatliver.com/2009/4992.jpg That's nearly nothing. I saw a british handbook given to US forces before D day. It sums up every stupid cliche that still remains nowadays about us. The poor side effect of such "joke" was that french women were depicted as whores. In the end that led to rapes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
