    Myself, I still dont see why we even capture them, just eat up their skiff from bow to stern with a .50 cal. and leave em too the sharks like many sailors perished during the war years. You want to play pirate? Well then except a pirates fate. Why waste time and money persecuting those that will just come back and do it again and again. Its pointless.
    Fortitude.....The strength to persist...The courage to endure.

      Q: How many speeds does a French tank have?

      A: One forward speed, and four in reverse!

          I thought that was an Italian joke. Still, works for me.

            The Italian AB 41 actually had 4 reverse gears (though also 6 forward)

              Dunkerque was an extraordinary bit of retrograde, wasn't it? ;)

                Yup, remember the Obama speech in Germany, the French saw a German crowd cheering on a charismatic speaker and decided to surrender just in case :))
