Riiiiggghhhttt. That last time my friend and I did that was on his S-10. The truck was red and we shot black below the trim strip. This was with spray cans by the way. :p Funny thing is---it looked great for years after that. lol lol I guess a decent job with a good wax job helps. lol lol
Yeah, like we didn't give them enough support. They even had the nerve to complain about the quality of our tanks too! Considering that theirs were made for all of 15 hours of combat and 1,500 hours of regular use, that is laughable. lol lol

Stalin tried to get us involved in many convoluted ways as well. He was a schemer of the highest order who used whatever he could to get what he wanted. He used...
You make an excellent point. Looking back over human history into time immemorial, we find that peace as it relates to a period of time is by far the exception rather than the rule. There have been wars that have lasted as long as our current period of peace many, many times in history.....
