The wanker shoulda done an encore at the end....got himself a bit of Garand thumb, Oh.... and with a Garand, beware of this.....thunk....mummy :o that nice dull meaty thud kinda like a meat tenderizer on a slab of beef thumb1

Nothin funnier than watching a Brit swear and curse, especially when a few drops of pee emerge.... rofl2

 Almost as funny as my yankee wife when she goes nuts on me chuckles1

Most amusing! I learned at a very early age from my Dad and his relatives that carried the Garand in battle that the "ping" giving away a soldier was bull ****. Those men were very proficient and deadly with what Gen Patton called "the greatest battle implement the world has ever known".
