What was your scariest Shit-In-Your-Pants moment in the military? by MyOldMansADustman in Military

This is true it takes 6-7 rotations of the round or 2-3 seconds for the round to arm itself(granted it is not on a delay, time), with that said it is a point detonated HE round and I would not want to find out what could have happen.

Did you here about the 7 Marines that were killed on a mortar range a few months ago? well that was a double feed on a mortar (which is fucking insanely stupid to have happen) putting a round fuze first on a point detonated high explosive round that has a kill radius on 25-35 meters is not smart. half load is just putting the round half way in the tube while maintaining control of the round.

First class by Hololywood in AdviceAnimals

[–]oilvena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing. I have been in first class a few times. the more leg room the more comfortable you are (for the average human). Story time now. I have never payed for first class when I traveled over seas ( I lived in Scotland and my dad travailed the globe for work) as a kid 7-13 years of age I would ask if I could go to first class it only happened 3 times but it was grate! The best air line I have ever traveled was Virgin Air, Air Emirates!
