For Waste Gate and Subman1

I disagree with some of your ideas and philosophies, and some of the answers, but we have similar feelings on where we come from. I saw this in a theater today and thought you might like it.

Oh! I say! 3 doors down, very good music!

I won't comment on the video.

That's very much better than the UK's military recruiting campaigns, which are generally awful.

Even the one where a sonar operator says

"But sometimes I just turn it off and on again."

Real professional :rotfl:

That's commonly known on boats as a 'Ferranti Reset', after it featured as an early step in one of their equipment troubleshooting guides (or so I was told 15 years ago).

I may be wrong, but that's not even the power switch he turns off and on, it's the anti-condensation heater switch

I like it. Im a few weeks from joining up as a reservist myself, which is kinda cool. I didnt watch the video yet, just let it play in the background and i do love that song! Thanks Steve

Well, to be honest, anything beats flags waving in slow motion, excessive lense flare and infants being picked up.

Its one long cliche.

Jimbuna · 10-28-07, 08:38 AM

I certainly liked the music.....must admit to liking the video too

Thank you for thinking of me.

As a 25U for the HHD 175th MP BN in Columbia, MO I'll give a big...

HOOOAH!

Not a bad video. The message is there. Strength is something that must continue and feel good about.

I must admit Sailor Steve, I agree with 98% of your ideals. As long as we all exist, and there are many of us that value those ideals, we need not worry for our children. I do see trying times ahead though, that is for sure.

Just my 2 cents.
