    Things that annoy me

    Popeyes is really good. I don't have this where I live, but had it in Colorado. I'm always looking for good fried chicken (more typically in local coffee shops) and their red beans & rice are good too.

    WW2 Comic's

    I loved comics as a kid. A lot of them got destroyed when my roof leaked. Other than those mentioned I remember Enemy Ace, Iron Corporal, Weird War. Many I can't remember. Dell Comics made an excellent series. There was a Vietnam War comic about a Marine Sgt. There was a comic about soldiers...

    Bob Newhart RIP

    The Bob Newhart show was one of my favorite sitcoms growing up. He also acted in a war movie. I think Hell is for Heroes.

    Thomas gunn marder 11

    Not real sure, but that's why they're called, "Jerry cans". The Americans copied the gas can from the Germans.

    Things that annoy me

    I noticed this thread has 5X more posts and views than "The Things I Really Like" thread. There's a lesson in there somewhere.

    THE PACIFIC miniseries---lost money

    I'll have to revisit TRL. Saw it once and didn't like it. I thought it was too artsy and short on action. Sometimes I don't like something and then like it when I watch it again. Btw, Platoon is my favorite movie.

    Isreal

    No doubt its only a few power hungry people that makes the masses suffer. I believe most people on both sides just want to live in peace. We'll see what unfolds when Israel conducts its ground incursion. Frankly, this scares me more than the situation in Ukraine. It took a war to get ZBlang...

    Isreal

    For the most part mankind is terrible. Greedy. We'll never get along. Sometimes I just want to be hermit. I'm reading this book about Comanches in Texas & Oklahoma. Brutal. On another note, I see the USA carrier group as a deterrent to prevent other groups in joining Hamas. Other than that...

    122 mm V.C. rockets discovered by marines

    Steve, you've probably read a lot of books about soldiers carrying wounded on stretchers on jungle trails and constantly dropping them. Rockets would be heavier and harder. Yet having determination counts for a lot. My friend said they would find these rocket sites with the area totally burnt...

    122 mm V.C. rockets discovered by marines

    My Vietnam combat vet friend mentioned these rockets as really loud and scary. I don't how these rockets have accuracy with no guidance. Also how does the NVA transport the rockets and get them place? Looks really heavy to carry.

    My Vietnam combat vet said in addition to carrying your own combat load, everyone in the squad carried ammo for the M60 machine-gun.
