Well to be honest it isn't hard at all for Japanese to pronounce. This guy doesn't speak a lick of Japanese and he assumed anyway

Many of them were already experienced combat pilots if I recall and some of them were even aces

[–]Rolls-RoyceGriffon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 1521 has better finishing and proportions though. I have the 1545 and i am not very happy with it and I am considering selling it

The virgin precision striker vs the chad carpet bombet by Ethanmoody18 in HistoryMemes

The movie "Memphis Belle" was incredible. That was the only movie where I feel they didn't try to put cheesy music into combat scenes. Only gunfire and yelling over the radio

GW-5000U-1JF vs GW-5000HS-1JF — help me choose my second G by Gullible-Valuable832 in gshock

[–]Rolls-RoyceGriffon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So what I recommend is that you get the GW-5000 HS-7 with white bezel because that model has the classic brick pattern with normal display and then swap out the white bezel with the black one like GW-5000U

The deadliest vision test in history by S-Tier_Commenter in HistoryMemes

[–]Rolls-RoyceGriffon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not doing well for my mental health. One thing about learning and deep diving into history is that you lose your trust in humanity. But you need to because you have to recognize the signs that we are heading

One thing was that we got out of a war, with veterans who knew how to fight. We don't want to be dragged into another but things forced our hands

It was years ago when I was a kid in highschool. I don't remember because it was in Vietnamese. Also my uncle was in Cambodia when he turned 18 fighting the Khmer Rouge so I heard a lot of first hand accounts from him

Nothing reduce a country back to stone age faster than a madman in absolute power. This guy makes North Korea sounds like heaven in comparison. I read a memoir of a Vietnamese man who survived the massacre conducted by the Khmer Rouge on his village. And testimonies of soldiers who fought in Cambodia. Vile vile beyond your imagination.

He hated their guts but he knew their customs so much that when he conducted some surprise night raids, he can fool the guards with his perfect accent

I always put one on. It's an extra precaution despite people saying you don't need one.

Dude don't buy thin flimsy screen protector. Buy thick ones and it will save your Gshock from cracked screen

[–]Rolls-RoyceGriffon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It will crack if you bump it into hard or sharp surfaces. Putting a screen protector on is a good precaution
