I trained with the Brits and the Aussies. No way we could keep up with their alcohol consumption. Next day they exhibited no signs of hangovers. Great guys and graet soldiers.

Coming from an ex USMC Sergeant, the beer drinking bit was a big call mate, but thank you. I'll bet the blokes in North WEest Queensland took it up another notch or two.

But only an idiot attempts to keep up with the yanks when the top shelf stuff comes out.

Interesting thread, just read it from beginning to the last post. I'm not trying to get off the topic of China threatening Australia but check out the first paragraph of szihn's 3-17 post on page 3. He called exactly what happened re our election and it's result 5&1/2 months before it happened. Hard to believe the Republican Party couldn't at least sense the potential for this back then or earlier and start making a serious effort to fight it. By the time Roberts screwed us on the mail in ballots on Oct. 20th it was too late and here comes China Joe.

I'm thinking that with all this meaningful discussion going on we really do need a CAMPFIRE and some of the good stuff to round it off. I used to think that if you got a few world leader around a good fire and some nectar, most of the worlds problems could be solved literally over night. By the way, lets not forget that we had a Prime Minister here not all that long ago called Tony Abbott. He had said he's be happy to "shirtfront" Vladimire Putin. No pussy that bloke.

He is fortunate he never tried it as Putin would simply kill him...I am no particular fan of Putin's but I do recognise a dangerous bastard when I see one.

I worked afew years mostly offshore but when we hit shore, lookout. They measure distances while driving with tinnies. Not sure if that is correct spelling. So 5 tinies would be 100 km. Not sure of the scale being the same all across the board.

Our aussie cricket team did the same thing when flying to England many years ago for a game over there. Same principle but different scale I suppose (beers versus distance).

Here's a relevant recent song:

I have a very limited knowledge of Australia but it’s always seemed like a cool place to visit and full of good people. Australia seems to have the US problem on steroids, a whole lot of “cultural centers” elites and suburbanites on its east coast making decisions for and controlling the rest of the land mass.

Years ago I used to like to play the board game risk. I always won. My main strategy was to get two other opponents to go after each other while I did my own thing and built strength. I just thought of that when I read your comment referencing the Chinese and the Muslims.

And the people of Oz already surrendered to the communist in office and didn't resist at all.

Believe me this man knows nothing of Australia or its inhabitants.I have worked and served with Aussi`s and not one is a chicken chit coward.Sometimes it is best to keep your pie hole shut and to be thought ignorant then open it and prove that you are.

Thanks for the good words. For me szihn's posts have zero credibility - he comes across as very fearful and ignorant and a conspiracist.

It would appear that China has already captured Australia. At least the government. They seem indistinguishable from the CCP
