Clipmarks | Vietnam Clips Mattisisms clipped by: jatfla clippers remarks: Victor Hanson has high praise for this man. I usually trust his judgment. His comments from the article: ?Mattis is a proven battlefield commander, a sophisticated student of history, and unshakable in his nerve and purpose.? ?We now have, with General Petraeus as ground commander, our two most gifted senior combat generals in charge of Afghanistan, who have worked well together and who were brilliant in Iraq in its darkest hours. I think all this is somewhat analogous to the final rise of Grant and Sherman in spring 1864 .??.??. or Ridgway in the last days of 1950, or the arrival of Abrams in Vietnam in latter 1968 .??.??. and increases our chances for success.? Ahhhh...but we have a different America now. Well see.

I didn?t bring artillery. But I?m pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you f? with me, I?ll kill you all.? ? Advice to soldiers and Marines: ?Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.? ?You are part of the world?s most feared and trusted force. Engage your brain before you engage your weapon.? ?An untrained or uneducated Marine .??.??. deployed to the combat zone is a bigger threat to mission accomplishment .??.??. than the enemy.? ? Psychological counseling: ?The first time you blow someone away is not an insignificant event.? ?Marines don?t know how to spell the word -defeat.? zum Artikel... Sniper Games on the PC clipped by: LiverpoolGamer clippers remarks: Squad combat games are common today, first person shooters are everywhere, but the first decent realistic sniper game in over ten years is due out in a few weeks. Bye bye Sniper Elite hello...? Clip Source: snipsly.com PC Sniper Games The statistics on how many rounds America has fired per confirmed kill in most recent conflicts has always been absurdly high ? numbering in the tens of thousands.  This fact alone has caused some to argue that a better strategy to win Vietnam might have been to drop dollar bills as it would have been cheaper and alienated fewer people.  Yet the story of absurd waste of ammunition is not the story of the whole of the US Army.  Some units pride themselves on the motto of ?One shot.  One kill?.  These rare breed of soldiers are the elite sniper teams and modern PC sniper games give you an opportunity to take part in warfare on their terms. A battlefield is a complicated environment that can be extremely hard to model effectively on a PC.  It is harder still to assign a believable AI to both the second man in a sniper team as well as the actions of the enemies of a player on that battlefield.
