This brings up an interesting question. Admiral Lord SPrior, do you have a pleasant speaking voice..you know..like David Attenborough? We could do an audio version. You could do all the Engrish stuff, especially the Jackspeak, although you might have to tone it down a bit.

I can do pretty good fake, cartoonishly oversimplified Japan-mens speak.

There is a branching flow diagram with half a dozen branch points. Even the most favorable one has 10 steps and 3 passwords per medication.

Please make them stop. Please.

It's almost as bad a Dec 7 Japanese turn.

Actually a short biography of Mohammed Ali might be interesting.

Ooops! You mean the other one. Make sure SG Jr mentions the fact that his wife was younger than she is. Toward Mecca of course.

I wouldnt say I was a young lad at 40+ but I guess that is relative. It probably took me the good part of a month to get through the whole thing. Learned alot of stuff about Mayan housekeepers, HOA's, wardrobe malfunctions, the IRS, and it reinforced once again the advantages of being single...

We lose 3/4th of a C-47 every day to op losses.

One would think that keeping them intact at the front may reduce OPS losses, but what the heck do I know?

Hey, why don't you go for the movie adaption instead.

Oh joy, think of the wonders of letting the AAR regulars choose which actors to play FAM and Lord Admiral sprior

I think this dude could do a convincing FAM

I wouldn't worry about that. Nobody over here knows what Welsh sounds like.

Isn't it obvious? After a quick trip to sickbay the newly christened 3/4's "men" will be set to join the newly stood up Lesbian-Gay-Transgender task force! Led and trained by Thai drill instructors from Bangkok of course.
