Just something about penguins conquering the world! Otherwise more of the same.

How are you Onime? I wondered where you went.

Probably the lowest point in my life, which I'm trying to come out of. But let us speak no more of it.

I have a pretty good idea which regulars who post here have served in the military. It does occur to me though. I wonder how many have served during a conflict.

Served during the aftermath of a couple...

Certainly not me

At the moment, the closest I get is 24 hours at Basrah International, our big jets stay well away from the trouble if possible

NATO, thank the Thread. Was on one of the first deployments after NATO took command in Bosnia, and then again in Kosovo.

I heard that the penguins greased themselves from head to webbed toe, making hand to flipper combat particularly troublesome.

*Raises hand*

Officially, I was a part of a "peacekeeping mission" but that didn't stop the bad guys from taking an occasional potshot at us. You can become just as dead in a peacekeeping mission as in a shooting war.

Smart move. In about 6 months, I'll find out if I get to visit another armpit of the world for 18 months or so. Bright side is that Mogami would probably be going along too.

We could hot seat.
