A combat-unit commander told non-commissioned officers at a briefing Monday that the Iran war is part of God’s plan and that Pres. Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth,” according to a complaint by a non-commissioned officer.

From Saturday morning through Monday night, more than 110 similar complaints about commanders in every branch of the military had been logged by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF).

The complaints came from more than 40 different units spread across at least 30 military installations, the MRFF told me Monday night.

      That’s the one facet of detachment we already have well underway. The big question right now is German-Norwegian vs. Korean subs. German self-propelled howitzers are also a shoe-in.

        French make really good howitzer trucks. I was considering one since they are designed to suit 4 operators and they’re roughly the same price as a house in Missisauga or Guelph. I figure you have to be able to finance one if you can live in it.

      If you mean small arms then surprisingly enough its mostly Canada made or European.

      Most of Canada’s armoured vehicles are either Canadian made or German. For example, their main battle tanks are German (Leopard 2).

      A lot of Canadian artillery is made up of French and British pieces.

      It’s really just the Air Force that’s dominated by US equipment.

      Oh I’m certain they will be as effective on fat white Americans as they are on the brown people the fat white Americans predominantly use them on. It’s less about who we buy them from than who we point the business end at when it’s business-doin’ time.
