They always look horrifyingly unstable in hover mode. Every time I see one take off or land, I always end up thinking, "bullshit, no way is he going to make it."

a v-22 landed in tall grass, set it on fire, and then burned from the brush fire underneath it.
The best is when they decide to land one on the fastidiously maintained parade field and blowtorch giant holes in the Commander's nice green grass.

My platoon commander arranged for a keg of beer to be shipped out to us in the field when we found out we were going to Afghanistan. Admin fags that came along ratted us out to the battalion CO and we had to dump it.

Port Darwin allegedly blows. Its several hundred miles away from all the good parts of Australia.

Northern Territory is full of inebriated, racist, inbred Redneck retards who spend most weekends stewing in the drunk tank. The previous head of the Territory played the growler as a musical instrument. US Marines should be right at home.
