Shady: I dunno bro, I mean Im not trying to bash our own troops and I have as much respect as you do ( my bro was a Marine, my girl cousin is in the Army ). Im just against sending troops like almost out of bootcamp. The reason I say "under trained" is because I have gone Paintballing (yeah I know its not real guns) with some Army NOOBS, that think they are the **** and I can easily take them out so fast. I been paintballing for quite some time now. They're tactical skills suck. They suck at Flanking. They stick their whole body out to shoot when all you need is 1 eye/half of your head with your gun in front of your head against your shoulder. Their ground shooting skills are even worse. They were talking about they were getting ready to leave to Iraq and they are just trying to have some fun before they leave.

I brought the story up because I was dressed in my Bros (Marines) old Camoflauge Desert Digitals from what he worn in Iraq and they were talking mess because I was supposedly "posing" and what

when its life and death and real bullets and your squad is with you with a squad leader, things change. Yes your right i mean someone with 8 to 10 years paint balling is going to be far better than someone with little paint balling skill.. just like someone driving for 8 years will be better on the street. but a 12 year old kid who's been doing cart racing his whole life will smoke you on the track. If you went into a kill house with an m4 and training rounds you'd get schooled. it all depends on your environment that your training in...

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times; it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness; it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity; it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness; it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair; we had everything before us, we had nothing before us; we were all going directly to Heaven, we were all going the other way.

I guess I should clarify that comment a bit.
if you go 245/35, your speedometer will be off by 5.7%
if you go 245/40 your speedometer will only be off 1.0%
