Just dropped military channel, friggin cable company wants $135 a month for any package that includes it.  I'll be looking for it on the streams.
If I had a gun with 3 bullets and I was locked in a room with Bin Laden, Hitler, Saddam and Zipp...  I would shoot Zipp 3 times.

On the history museum in Saarbrucken I came across WWI battlefield photos, taken after a heavy arty bombardment on the western front, and those were in 3D!!!! A very impressive way to describe the carnage.
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)
