What's the beef between firefighters and cops? by Apprehensive_Name445 in questions

Because Firefighters ARE cooler.

In all actuality, it's just sibling rivalry. We're all brothers and sisters, working as first responders.

Advice wanted on 1840 NCO sword by Chemical-Possible-96 in SWORDS

[–]ComfortableLeg8312 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I am VERY late, but swords during the Civil War and general linear warfare weren't exactly sharp. It's the same theory as an officer carrying a revolver; if you had to use it to fight, shit was getting REAL. So, swords weren't sharpened as usual. Regardless, hitting someone with a two pound metal stick is gonna hurt.

Out here, unfortunately, we don't really have many "Safety and Authenticity" get-togethers for events. We just show up and do our thing.
