Haha, hey you british fag:
1) Congress lost Vietnam when they banned any funding for South Vietnam in 1973. Also the Rambo movies rule, so from that perspective you might say that we won it.
2) Depends on where you're from, being from North Carolina, you might say my countrymen lost it. But goddamit we looked good doing it!
3) In war, nobody wins:rolleyes:(though the Carthaginians might disagree, that is if they still existed to disagree. For those not in the know: Carthage was razed to the ground by the Romans after losing the Punic Wars)

Also why would someone brag to an Englishman about winning the American civil war? I'm pretty sure England won the English civil war too!

THAT WHY I TEND TO STICK TO MORE MATURE GAMES LIKE ILL 2 ETC

The war aside.. I will honestly tell you when my level of respect rose to heights for the British military.. Well, while I served in what was know as SAC (Strategic Air Command) as a systems electrician on the B-52D/G. We used to hold friendly "Bomb Competitions". It was not as "popular" or well known as "Red Flag" (Top Gun type of tripe), but it was SAC's version of that. We used to participate along side of the Brits in their Vulcan Bomber (one of the coolest British Bombers IMHO. Well, my respect for the Brits rose to an all time high when after our ground support during the competitions, us mechanics, American, German, French, Israeli, Canadian, and Brits alike would go to the nearest watering hole for refreshing beverage. Well, the Brits and the Deutch would nearly vomit if we started drinking American beer, and generally, they would bring their own. Their cargo planes that supported the effort, I think were more to carry their ale than it was to carry their support equipment. They used to steal a few of us Americans and take off to help them lighten their cargo planes load. I tell you what, us Americans, who used to think we could drink, would be like we were made of rubber, and couldn't talk and those danged Brits used to have to carry us back to the dorm to put us to bed to rest up for the next day's events.. THOSE damned Brits could drink brother, and walk away when us American's forgot we even had legs.. lol

Cheers..

Dude, didn't I just point out that we really won it? Sure South Vietnam fell to the communists a few years after we withdrew, but we got movies out of it like the Rambo series, the Deer Hunter, numerous episodes of Airwolf, Delta Force etc. Thats more than you guys ever got out of the War of Spanish Succession, so whos the real winner, I ask you?

But seriously, lets put aside the nationality issues and just think of this from the perspective that all of us are game players and BoP fans:

Waht would you guys think about high altitude bomber escort? Bear in mind that a lot of the planes in BoP are designed for peak performance over 12,000ft like the later 109s, the 190s the P-51s, later Spits etc. I think it would be really cool and different from whats already there, if done right.

lol i like it tudorp :grin:

just down the road from me at baggington airport (coventry) there is a vulcan bomber on display you pay a pound and you can go inside with a guide HOW THE HELL THEY FLEW THEM I NEVER KNOW the windows were next to useless and then they had a screen thing that dropped down in the event of a atomic blast so the windows would of shut off compleatly

they had to take off and land by instruments only !! and there is a cool periscope thing that looks backwards out the bottom of the plane i think it was a bomb sight but could be wrong been a while since ive been there i might go soon and get some pics to share with you guys :grin:

lol cant argue with that :grin: johnny rambo!!!!!:grin::grin:
