Unit Crest

According to regulation, which Unit Insignia do I wear on my beret?

I am currently permanently ASSIGNED to one unit, and then was later ATTACHED to a different unit with a different unit crest (DUI). I'm still assigned to the original unit though. Which unit crest do I wear on my beret? AR 670-1 says vaguely that you wear the crest of the unit you are assigned to and says nothing of being attached to a unit. A little help please, and please provide references if available. Thank You.

well soldier since everythign is suppose to be dress right dress and you will look funny in formation being the only soldier with a differant crest, I would sew on the crest that everyoen else has on their beret. That is my army experienced answer. I know its a pain in the a$$ to do this and then resew on another insignia when you get back to your unit, but remember dress right dress, everybody latty-datty. same uniform, look-alike, no one out of place.
Or you can just ask the 1SGT what his opinion is.
sorry a bit confused. their are two parts to the thing if I remember correctly, one you sew on and the metal part, I wa sin an airbourn unit for 13 years and had to wear the marine beret and I wa snot airbourne I was chairbourne

Real estate has always been a good investment option. A current trend in real estate is to invest in storage units. The storage unit industry in the United States has maintained a steady rise over the last two decades. You can earn back the money you invest in a storage unit within a period of five years. Owning a Columbia storage unit will offer you steady returns in any economic climate.

Storage space is a necessity for anyone who is relocating from one place to another or who is looking to store valuable furniture and other accessories. New and growing businesses also feel the need for storage space. A business might use storage space to store records, to warehouse overstock items, or maybe even as a mini-distribution center from which to rotate their inventory. A regular Columbia storage unit is ideal for storing items that are not affected by changes in climate.

If you are looking to own or rent a Columbia storage unit, you have come to the right place. This article will briefly discuss owning a storage unit, as well as renting one.

1. Owning A Storage Unit

If you are looking to own a storage unit as an investment, the following points will help you reap rich returns for your investment.

* Location of the unit -
* Make sure the unit you own is located near a landmark such as a mall. This plays a role when businesses or other customers decide about their storage units.
* Facilities near the storage unit area -
* Having facilities such as shopping in close proximity to your storage unit will make your unit irresistible to clients.
* Offering options -
* A unit that can offer different rental options such as self storage, boat storage, car storage and others would definitely catch the attention of prospective tenants.

2. Renting A Storage Unit

There are a few things to consider when renting a storage unit.
* What will you use the storage space for? Will a regular storage unit be sufficient?
* Climate-controlled unit -
* If you are planning to store furniture, a climate-controlled Columbia furniture storage unit is your best option. Besides furniture, a climate-controlled unit can store paintings, photos, electronic gadgets, leather or any other item that could be affected by a change in temperature.
* Protection plan -
* Check with your storage company to see if they offer coverage in case anything goes wrong.
* Security -
* Storing precious valuables or assets would require a highly secure unit. Look for facilities having features such as a fenced perimeter, an access-controlled gate and 24-hour video surveillance. You could use a Columbia car storage unit to store your car while on the move.

The popularity of storage units can be traced to the American culture of mobility. An average American changes his residence 11 times. Another reason for the success of storage units is the high number of eBay sellers using self-storage units to house their goods.

Storage units are here to stay. With the increase in American consumption, there will always be a need to store something valuable.

War Arvn

Are there any Vietnam War veterans here?

What is your opinions the South Vietnamese military and its soldiers. I once had an American Vietnam War vet speak at my school. He said that most ARVN troops were mostly cowards who whenever possible would avoid combat and let the Americans fight their battles. I thought that this was kind of offensive since my dad is vet, he was in the ARVN. I served for a few years, and then was sent to a reeducation camp after the war. He told me that the ARVN fought 75% of the war. The Americans mostly defended their bases.

One thing to remember is that soldiers in the ARVN did not just serve for a year or two in Vietnam. They fought until the war was over. We could go home after putting in our time in. The ARVN troops were in it "for the duration".

Some ARVN soldiers were great. Others weren't so hot. But you can say the same thing of American GIs.

I remember an ARVN ranger battalion that kicked the stuffings out of the NVA one Tet. The rangers pretended to get drunk and acted careless, encouraging the NVA to attack. When the NVA did that night, the rangers were ready for them and gave them a very big surprise!

I was in northern II Corps, after the American troops supposedly had turned the area over to the ARVN. In reality, the infantry withdrew but they left behind my battalion. As combat engineers, we could defend ourselves and go about keeping the roads open and maintaining the airfield. The ARVN infantry went out looking for the NVA, and I remember seeing ARVN military funerals far too often from their encounters.

If your dad is thinking of that, yes - the ARVN went out to fight, since that's what infantry did. We usually didn't go looking for a fight, since it wasn't our job. Still, the fight often came to us and we took some heavy casualties too. But before the US infantry pulled back, the GIs did most of the fighting there.

The ARVN were never really thought to be strong enough to defeat the NVA by themselves. The idea behind the cease fire accords was that Hanoi would leave the South alone. Then the ARVN would be strong enough to handle the local Viet Cong. Of course, that didn't happen and Hanoi's entire armed forces invaded the South in 1975. The US Congress refused to get involved and the South lost. I'm still disgusted with the US government for that. They got 50,000 Americans killed in the war - and then just sort of lost interest.

Say hello to your dad, and tell him this VN vet remembers the ARVN as good guys. If he was in the 42d ARVN, I may have seem him around at times.

The antidote to war is Justice

In the presence of true justice, war does not happen. In order to create war, one must ensure that all efforts to erect a system for the implementation of true justice are thwarted.

One can observe that to the degree that Man is in affinity with man, he survives. To the degree that man's affinity with man is inhibited, his ability to survive is jeopardized. In order to have war, one must destroy man's sense of affinity with man.

The purpose of justice is the survival of the community. Its function is to locate the perpetrators of acts that inhibit the survival of their fellow man (criminals) and have them cease committing those acts.

True justice does not inconvenience the honest citizen, neither does it inconvenience the honest government because it targets only those engaged in criminal actions.

Laws prohibit certain acts because it is recognized that those acts harm the survival of the human community.

The correct target, the only correct target, of justice actions is he who commits acts that are counter to the survival of the human community. Justice enters in when someone will not correct his own counter-survival actions. It is the effort of the group to protect itself from the harm done by such persons.

Justice must be equitably applicable to all, lest some be exempt from it and thereby left free to commit harm. Laws, for the same reason, must be uniformly applicable to all. Anything less isn't justice. The less justice we have, the less the community is able to protect itself from the criminal and so the less able to survive are the members of that community.

What is missing from the global community of nations at this time, and it is this omission that continually gets us into war and other troubles, is an equitable system of laws that define and proscribe recognized harmful acts and an equitable system of justice for correctly identifying the perpetrators of harmful acts and having them cease those acts.

Until such a justice system is in place, there will be anarchy among nations and criminals will remain at liberty to harm their fellows.

The solution to our current international debacle is not war. It is to invest maximum effort and maximum resources into the creation instead of a Truly Equitable system of justice for the resolution of disputes between nations and for taking action against criminals, and only criminals, on the basis of verified evidence.

This is something all honest men of good will can support because it is they who would make immense gain from such a system, were it ever to come into being. The only persons who would be "harmed" by it are criminals.

It is for that very reason that only criminals will resist, impede or object to the efforts required to bring such a system into being.

Propose a system for international justice, then see who decries it, seeks to discourage it or works to undermine it. And right here you have someone up to no good.

By their deeds shall we know them.

Sterling silver is not the purest form of silver, as it contains 92.5 percent of silver and 7.25 percent of copper. The best way to judge whether the metal is sterling silver or not, is the difference it its luster. As 100% pure silver is too malleable to be used as a metal from which the jewelry can be finished when it is assorted with other metals its resilience increases. Many people are allergic to certain metals, but so far no problem has yet been encountered by people who have tried sterling silver. Rhodium is generally added to gold or sterling silver, the base metals, to bestow its glistening white surface. It is one of the major members of the family of platinum. This practice of plating came into practice in early 30's and 40's. The process of plating jewelry is expensive as rhodium is not found in bounty.

Importance of rhodium in jewelry

This metal is widely used for plating, as it has tremendous gleam and provides a well polished façade. It also provides resistance to smudge. Sterling silver and gold can be made tarnish and scratch resistant, if they are coated with platinum, though it is not hundred percent impermeable to every day wear and damage. In order to keep it completely safe, one must avoid those activities that lead to the oxidization of the jewelry. The facility of re-plating is available with most of the neighboring jewelers for a nominal price. Due to friction, silver necklaces undergo more damage when compared to silver rings and silver bracelets.

Changing trends

Jewelry has always been a craze with women. Changing fashion is always supplemented by a change in jewelry. With changing trends the demand for silver bracelets, silver necklaces, silver earrings, silver pendants, silver chains and silver rings are ever on the increase. People want a break from the traditional yellow gold and want something which blends perfectly with their pelt tenor and the kind of attire they wear. Sterling silver has made this possible, as it has made finishing of silver jewelry more sturdy and at the same time elegant. Sterling silver jewelry is available for all occasions, from casual to special. Sterling silver bracelets and silver necklaces are in effective demand as they are less expensive and thus you can have an entire collection. The variety allows you to mix and match according to your attire and mood! Silver bracelets and earrings are available in the latest designs and are combined with some selective stones that enhance its value.

Sterling silver necklaces and silver bracelets are the 'in' these days. Sterling silver corrodes with time and exposure to air and salt. To avoid this from happening clean your jewelry with daily use non- toxic cleaners.

These days, Rhodium is the most sought-after metal in the jewelry market. It has bright and sparkling look that has silver-like resemblance. The trend of yellow gold jewelry is almost over now. But there is no need of discarding them and spending extra money on purchasing new fashionable jewelry as the yellow gold can be rhodium-plated to give it white gold look.

Interracial dating is common in LA and nobody really notices it. Although I still get the occasional dirty look by some black women when I'm out at the mall or restaurant and my dates get the same look from Persians or even Hispanics (since that's what they think I am)---but I don't think that has much to do with geography and it doesn't happen all the time.

One of the most heard claims of the various martial arts systems and styles is the devotees claiming that their system provides realistic self defense techniques and, in many cases, even claiming that there system is the best for self defense. A very bold claim considering the often unpredictable nature of the street thugs attack methods.

The emergence of mixed martial arts as a fighting system (working on the assumption that we accept this mixed martial arts as a distinct fighting system like Karate or Jiu Jitsu) has led to debate about whether it is the best system for self defense.

Certainly, in respect of the techniques that we train in mixed martial arts, and the attributes that we develop in our drilling and sparring, it is the closest that we will get to train and spar at a safe contact level with methods that will be effective in a real street fight.

However, as with all systems of martial arts it is still training for a controlled fight scenario that the combatants have both agreed to and prepared for. There are also rules that forbid us using the most effective weapons against the most debilitating targets, and a referee to enforce them. In addition, it is a guaranteed one on one fight, usually between opponents closely matched in weight and experience, with no weapons involved.

Learning mixed martial arts will certainly provide us with techniques that will increase our chances of prevailing in a street self defense situation, as we are exposed to a wide range of potential attacks in both standup and ground situations.

We must, however, compliment this with components that address those areas that occur in the self defense situation but are not adequately prepared for when learning mixed martial arts. I would also add that these areas should be addressed in all martial art systems that want to responsibly provide their followers with an effective self defense methodology.

1)         Develop street awareness skills that teach you and your students how to recognize potential danger so that you can either avoid them or be prepared to deal with them.

2)         Develop a "non-victim" mind-set and body posture so that a potential attacker identifies you as a dangerous target and that they would be better seeking out another victim.

3)         Include adrenal stress training so that you do not "freeze" when a potential assailant "interviews" you. This is an aspect of self defense that the majority of martial arts schools do not address. The "butterflys in the stomach" effect before a mixed martial arts or Muay Thai match is similar but not the same as here the fight conditions are not controlled and the effect of adrenal stress can be much greater.

4)         In addition to the fighting skills trained be sure and train eye gouges, palm heels, throat grabs, groin and knee strikes son that the confrontation can be dealt with as quickly and efficiently as possible.

5)         Develop effective strategies for standing back up if the fight goes to the ground and for dealing with multiple assailants – don't kid yourself this is tough even if you are a seasoned fighter.

6)         Street effective pre-emptive offensive "gap bridging" and broad-spectrum defensive cover techniques that enable you to engage the opponent with a high probability of establishing control.

In summary, mixed martial arts will provide you with a very effective technique and fight attribute base for self defense, however, you must compliment your training with self defense specific striking tools and a fear management psychological mind-set.

Most systems of martial arts will provide some degree of ability in self defense but only if they address the real conditions of a street situation and this pertains to whatever system you undertake when learning martial arts.

For a greater in-depth look at these gap bridging strategies check out my very comprehensive resource "Mastering the Danger Zone" DVD series which is packed full of concepts and techniques for set ups and "Bridging the Gap" in Muay Thai, Mixed Martial Arts fighting and the street self defense situation that will put you way ahead of the game when learning mixed martial arts and Muay Thai.

Grab your free video and audio clips here at http://www.UltimateFightingSystems.com.

In addition I often discuss these strategies together with other fight game and self defense tactics in my blog at http://www.UltimateFightingSystems.com/blog that will help you develop your knowledge and experience when learning martial arts and Muay Thai or self defense.

outsiders butterfly knife?

Where can i find the same knife two-bit has? i think its a pcc weehawk with black micarta inserts by Jody Samson but not totally sure where to find one, ITS MY DREAM KNIFE

First of all, they are not illegal in america. The idiot answering before needs to learn how to research. In some states they are, most (if under 3 inches which.most balisongs are) states are legal.

Second, i'm sure it'll take some research on your part but you can find custom knife makers all over the net. Even metal workers too. Find one and send them a picture or model. Be prepared to shell out some money though. Custom balisongs aren't cheap.

A dating website for Black people is similar to the other online dating sites. The features and the way of functioning are the same. These websites which are dedicated for black people is the right place for Black people to meet and know each other.

Obviously, a dating website which caters Black people are quite often used by the people who is of African origin, however other too join with them in search of a Black partner. When you join with a Black dating website, you come across discussion forums which are normally very stronger than the general online dating website discussion forearm. You would see people engages in different subjects which is related to black dating as well as other issues related to black community.

There are some good reasons to date a Black person. Following are some of them.

The Black individuals are good communicators. They are normally well informed and know how to present it. When a black person tells you about something, that will be very accurate, there won't be anything more, or something less. You can trust them most of the time. They don't exaggerate things.

The conversation with a Black person cannot be boring. He or she knows how to entertain you with the talking. They are good at jokes and would often burst into laughter. They know how to entertain you and have a real ability to make you laugh. They are not so self centered so that others get easily attracted to them. If you are in an online relationship with a black person, you feel the difference. They know how to make you feel special.

They are very sensitive in nature. You will be surprised with their susceptible nature. They could produce an environment which is touchy and insightful. They are very sensitive and can understand what is in your mind. Whenever they find you are not interested in a topic they will change it soon and wouldn't ask you for a reason. They pay attention to others and know how to respect others feeling. They don't insist on you to extract information regarding you.

Black persons are not finicky. They are not the kind of people who are hard to please. They are ready to talk to you if you have interest in talking. So it is a better idea if you find a Black man or woman for an online dating. They are not particular about any topics. Whatever topics you talk, they will at least try to pay heed to it. They are open to any subjects.

Their friendly mannerism will certainly please you. They are good listeners. At the same time they will be an active partner in the conversation. They are sensitive and know how to behave in all circumstances.

Most people get furious about subjects like racism, gay or lesbian relationships, or sexism, but black people don't feel too outraged by these subjects. They take it coolly and wouldn't get into an argument over these issues.

Fighter Squadron

how long do you think it will be before computers replace pilots?

personally, I think humans could do their job much better than artificial intelligence and computers are vital in all jobs but should not fully replace people. Im planning on joining the RAAF in a fighter squadron soon and It wouldnt be very nice LOL to be replaced by some AI. I know that they jets like the JSF will be in service till like 2050 but Im wondering how long will it be before humans are replaced?

Probably never--I don't believe in the AI "singularity" stuff. Computer systems in commercial airliners can already land planes automatically, but you will always need a few people around to supervise and react to unplanned events.

As far as the military goes, there will always be people in the loop. My brother works in military defense simulations for helicopters and planes, and he was mentioning how there is a shift towards unmanned drones. A pilot still flies them, but it is all done remotely from base so if a drone is shot down, the pilot is never in danger. I don't know the technology behind it, but I assume you would need to have very fast, robust communication in place to effectively do something like that.

In short, I highly, highly doubt human pilots will be replaced in our lifetime, if ever.

As a pilot in the air force, when you fly into battle you know that - no matter what happens - there's someone in a plane next to yours watching your back. This is your wingman - someone willing to do whatever it takes to ensure the mission's success, even if it costs him his life.

Outside of war, there's only one situation where the stakes of the relationship between a guy and his wingman are higher: trying to pick up a girl at a bar. Wingmannery is the male-on-male form of chivalry; the ultimate act of loyalty. It's about sacrificing your enjoyment for a night in the hope that you can steer your mate into the glorious triumph of picking up a girl.

Chatting to a girlfriend of mine the other day, I was surprised to find out that a lot of what guys know as 'The Sacred Code of the Wingman' is not common knowledge among womenfolk.

I asked my friend what the best move was that a girl could make for a friend. She thought about it, then said, 'You might just say to a guy, "My friend thinks you're hot."' I hung my head in despair. It was the worst example of wingmannery I'd ever heard of and it broke Rule 3. 'What's Rule 3?' I hear you ask. It's the rule after Rule 2 in The Sacred Code of the Wingman, which I will now explain to you in a perfect segue.

Rule 1

Who the wingman is and who the squadron leader (the main guy) is gets decided early on. If one guy's taken, he's automatically the wingman. If not, whoever spots the girl first gets her. The other guy then becomes the ultimate wingman - he's forgone the chance to meet the girl even though he's single.

Rule 2

The wingman always takes a dive. Should an anecdote be told at which the girl is not amused, the wingman is expected to assume all responsibility, saying, 'I was the one who said we should do that nudie run,' or 'It was my idea to steal the nun outfits.'

Rule 3

The wingman never ever reveals the mission. Even if captured and tortured, a good wingman should - and will - maintain that the fact this girl fell for his friend was purely 'one of those magical things' and not a finely rehearsed ballet of wingmannery.

Rule 4

The wingman's a big, big fan - without looking as though he may have a crush himself. The wingman's most common phrases to his squadron leader should be, 'That's so funny', 'That's because you care about animals too much - you just can't save them all', and 'Don't get this round, you always pay for everything. Whoever snags you will sure get treated to her pick of designer shoes and handbags...'. Okay, maybe not the last line - but you get the drift.

Rule 5

The wingman may need to be flown off in an enemy plane. No-one likes to admit this happens, but it does. Often in a two-guys-meet-two-girls scenario, where one guy is wingmanning the other, it leaves one girl remaining. This girl can be the biggest threat to the squadron leader's chances, and it's the wingman's duty to do whatever's necessary to divert her attention - especially since we know girls are not a selfless species, and no one flower is going to stand in the field silently while another gets two bees.

So, quite often, a wingman's entire night is spent keeping the target girl's friend entertained, and this may mean taking her elsewhere - even home. I'm the first to admit it's not nice but it's reality, and - as I mentioned in the first paragraph - the military metaphor isn't a coincidence. They don't call it 'the battle of the sexes' for nothing.
