Sorry Buddy but i cant agree with you. I like Mc Cain more as american citizen
and military man, i have seen Obama during his speech in Berlin and wasnt impressed that much, its very much showmastering behind. Fact is that it's the Bush administration that organized all the mess in 8 y. Since the cold war is over America didnt find its new place in the global world that is not anymore "bi-polar" but "multi-polar". I agree with you terrorists should be killed without trial and questioning. Lets see what the will of the american ppl will be in Nov. 08.
Good luck and greatings from Europe !

What's going on in US actually, big trouble i guess. The financial crisis got overhere, many bancs are bankrupted because the US banks sold billions of faked titles to European banks. Is that the G.W Bush-way to divide the financial burdon with Europe ?

I've been on american vessels in visit during joined operations in Norway and in the mediterranean sea. Well, american sailors are first class people and do work with state of the art equipment.

Do you mean what kind of rifle i had in dotation ? In the german navy "Bundesmarine" depends on the vessel class type what kind of weapons they are equipped with. Normal sailor doesnt keep permanent a gun, on the frigates where i've been were the standard G3 rifle , MP5 German Production and UZI, IMI - made ( Israel ) and different pistols depends on the rank officers have. There's a recruit
training with all of the a.m. weapons and after regular trainings every 6 weeks. My MOS was also operator on 40 mm swedish made BOFORS gun on deck.

I served in the german navy. My family comes from Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, this is a state at the north-coast of Germany, at the North -sea.Me i'm born in Berlin and study now at the TU ( Technische Universität ).

In Germany is the general draft as law , anyone must go to serve if male . Females only when volunteer. I did the 12 month as obliged
conscript and after contracted more 8 month for money. Most of German males do this way. Money rules the military my friend.

Amerika and "Deutschland über Alles" ?
Its the german anthem singing .."....Deutschland...D ...über Alles ". But its not meant to be Germany rules the world...it was.." Germany FIRST " ...and after comes anything else ..its like now in America...."Country( AMERICA ) first ". This is really hard to understand...but it was misinterpretated german. I'm not a nazi...im democrat and like americans and the rest of the world. Are you from the army ?

just popping on to say hi. hope that your doing well, take care. ooh btw i resent it for you.good night.

Yeah.. Just taking life easy, not trying to be a slacker though haha.
