Finally got around to adding a new Pact orbat page (funny what half a meter of snow will do you my otherwise busy holiday schedule!) that contains the detailed Pact orbat previously linked from here. And also put up a new, pretty home page picture
I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...
It's probably obvious by now that I'm simply cutting and pasting from my change page...
