Front row, second from right, taking "at ease" a little too literally.

Edit - well, poo poo, there's a couple more like that too.

Yo does anyone have that warning poster where the Marines/Army/Whoever strapped a bunch of claymores to the front of their humvee's bumper "in case they were ambushed" and basically had a live bomb pointing at their whole convoy for like a week?

Please post the dumbest warning posters you've seen, not including the "Private tries to unjam M2 by beating it with a .50 round" demolished hand please

The "dealer sample" is a bit of fucky-fucky. They're cheaper, since they can only transfer between dealers and not private collectors, but you have to also have proof of interest in purchase/testing by a law-enforcement agency.

A while back, it came out that some pissant little town (in CA, I want to say, but don't remember for sure) was putting out interest letters solely for the benefit of their dealer pal getting fun toys. Another dealer, more recently, got an interest letter and sat on it for a while before acquiring the sample. Problem is, the agency in question rescinded the letter before the transfer was finalized, so the gun is now in limbo - paid for, but can't legally be transferred to the dealer. (It appears he used the letter after being informed that it was no longer valid, so he's hosed legally as well, possibly.)

Have a (really gunfappery) video of a dude shooting a handheld 7.62 minigun. Skip to 1:11 to watch him slide backwards from the recoil.

Bill Mauldin ended up in the Quartermaster Corps in the 45th Infantry Division, before they went overseas. However, he felt he was losing his "edge", cartoon-wise, and voluntarily transferred back to the infantry. :black101: (Well, :black101: for a cartoonist, anyway.)

He put out a number of books, with Up Front being his most well-known, which contains a shitload of cartoons and stories from WWII. There's a couple about his earlier life (The Brass Ring covers more of his prewar Army stuff), and he even went to Korea as a correspondent and got a book out of it.

Pretty sure there is roughly 400 actual pictures of this that were set up/posed.

Oh, easy. http://cs.finescale.com/fsm/modeling_subjects/f/19/t/153185.aspx

That's actually his second cartoon for that - he did an earlier version with a much more clean-cut pre-war looking trooper, campaign hat and all, which I can't find easily with GIS.

Really needs some of the dialogue as well, or at least explosions/gunfire/mooks screaming.

Edit: hmmm, not sure if it's my plugins screwing this up or what, but in case you can't watch Gurbanguly gooning it up, here's the article with video.
