Title: Got your one DumbAss Tanker checking in...
Post by: DumbAss Tanker on January 05, 2008, 04:39:48 PM
Radio check, over?

Got a couple of invites, thanks for thinking of me guys.  For those who don't know me, I am also DATMan on a certain durn good gun board, or go by this same moniker on an otherwise nice Conservative board with an unfortunate idiot invasion in progress right now.

I am a long-serving Army officer (on a mob tour right now, actually), lawyer, military history and train buff, gun-nut survivalist head case, artist in graphics as well as lost-wax metal casting, home shop machinist, and also have a large pinch of Medieval reenactor thrown in for comic relief.

Mid-50s in age, my handle comes from my early years in the Army as an M60-series tanker and TC.  It is the nickname given to the warriors of America's elite armored fist by those jealous types who have to walk to war, or ride in things that can be easily destroyed by small-arms fire.

Well, it's damned good to see Tanker here, a gentleman of the highest character and quality.

Tanker's never afraid to hit franksolich over the head with a sledge hammer when franksolich talks about something way out of his (franksolich's) league, and I always appreciated that.

Now, we need to get USA4ME in here, to make it complete.  I have no idea why USA4ME isn't around any more; I've "heard" rumors, but never checked into them.

USA4ME is a sterling figure, a gentler but just as straight-speaking, version of Tanker.

If by 'reptiles' you mean Gator's sorry-assed antics, well, actually I could put up with that, it was the contrarian bitches like LogansPapa, Feebmaster, and BuzzClick's various sockpuppets that were just clogging up any kind of intelligent discussion with their smarminess.

You made me laugh my ass off one time, Chris. The DUmmies were bitching about someone with a 5-acre tract of land that was clear-cut and they were pissed that it wasn't used for some kind of damn sanctuary for birds, snakes, deer, etc. You said, "Yeah, like I want all that shit next to my house  ::) "

I was laughing my ass off when I read that.  :lmao:

Welcome, Sir.

I was Airborne, myself.  Riding in a steel coffin with a couple of other men never really seemed attractive to me.  Neither did fixing a busted track in 4 feet of cold mud.  I still have 1AD nightmares over that.

Well, my friend, it DOES beat trying to nail the wing back on an airplane at 400 knots and 22,000 feet!

I will have you know that it took a lot of explosive to destroy my first ride.
