R-S, you must not be aware of Ranger Joe's infamous posts of pictures of his foot - badly damaged by melanoma cancer and the surgery to remove it. There is no way he could go to Ukraine that I can see. He has just chosen not to return to the board and that is all I want to say about the situation.Rising-Sun wrote: Tue Jul 26, 2022 6:42 am Ah i see, lol wasnt aware of that. Just those icons were blocking it and i cannot see what it was. I know politics shouldnt be allow in here. But curious what was going on with joe. Many have travel over there on both counts.

Re: Rangerjoe MIA...SITREP?
Thanks GP. The board culture may have changed a bit with the new bulletin board management, but I hope he will find it is still a great place to hang out.

Re: Rangerjoe MIA...SITREP?
Well, I think it would be nice if RangerJoe returned, and shared his insights once again.
But, if not, then that is fine as well. Just hearing that he is well is good enough. Thank you.

Nope. But I do have a picture of someone else's foot after he had trench foot also called immersion foot. I will not post that now.

Always?

Re: Rangerjoe MIA...SITREP?
Always. You see, it is the attitude not the age nor the equipment - or the lack thereof!
The Polish-Lithuanian forces were outnumbered by more than 5 to 1. So after the Russian Uhlans first rank fired their weapons and fell back to rearm so the second rank could fire, the Polish-Lithuanian Winged Hussars fired then charged. The Polish-Lithuanian forces spent the next winter in Moscow.
The battle of Vienna in 1683:
Climbing a mountain in the dark, with no road, hauling artillery and horses up there with all of the ammunition and the equipment. Then the world's largest known Cavalry charge led by 3,000 Polish Winged Hussars whose armour was bullet proof with the weapons at the time. The armour was tested by firing a gun at it and if the bullet penetrated the armour, it was not accepted.

Re: Rangerjoe MIA...SITREP?
Yep, once you have been indoctrinated, trained and christened as a cavalry man, your always a cavalry man.
