Here’s a BBC article about the military custom of saluting:

The chart mentioned in the story…

…has some suprisingly amusing cartoons for an official government publication dealing with a serious topic like military ranks.  Then again, I once heard a rule of thumb on shipboard behaviour supposedly given to enlisted sailors: “If you see something, salute it.  If it doesn’t salute back, pick it up.  If it can’t be picked up, paint it.”

I think your right Marc, I couldn’t remember that middle part. :-o

Japan, China and South Korea should all slice up North Korea and solve that problem.

You can actually find all kinds of information from almost any war.  Try their search facilities, its sometimes hit and miss but a search for “the battle of midway” finds all kinds of information.  Under military sytems you can also find historical information:

Well then post in the varients section ;)

I think that the system should stay the way it is. The states should ask for assistance. If they don’t it’s their fault, not the federal government. We do not need to have more bureacracy. Personally, I believe it was the Louisiana’s fault the situation wasn’t handled properly along with FEMA. It would be a violation of states’ rights to use Bush’s plan imo.

amen stuka!!!
