how long are hostilities meant to go on for though? Like what if battles drags on for months even years? I mean I dont know, never 'played war' so what it is like a rugby game or something where its over in 40 minutes?

do they not cremate the bodies what if you cant find them, and also, does the other side do the same for their dead? what about the people that get killed who are NOT fighting.
Wars can drag on for years but battles, depending on the conflict, days or weeks. Don't know what other nations do with the dead and injured.

You don't really play war but rather conduct battles leading to declared victory or surrender.

The US campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan were never declared as a war. Unfortunately, there was not really an exit strategy for either conflict. There was neither victory nor surrender in these two conflicts, just a lot of deaths, horrific injuries and tremendous waste of resources' and money.

I always remember the rules my Bible teachers taught

When reading
Interrupting is not a good idea
Now is the time to sit still and listen
Space Invaders no way

Then there were the memory verses, that we would sing

John 3:16 and Romans 8:28

yea good times
we'd act out out the story
my favourite Bible teacher used puppets
and she'd always pray for me, she said she prayed for me everyday. (Im not sure if it was just me personally or she just included everyone in her prayers)

I mean, the adult ones everyone else saw on tv or in church services were never as fun as the Bible teachers in school

That whole sit and listen part is difficult sometimes. lol

I was in the US Army. No, did not see combat but was involved in 3 major war exercises, which is preparation for going to war.

Where were stationed at tourist?

continuing to grow in Him in relationship and imparting Holy Spirit to those who will receive.

Just a heads up, apparently Gojira eats cats, and with the price of food going up, he might be extra hungry. :)

what a waste of time
they could have played a game of rugby instead
all you need for that is a ball.. and a flat field and some goal posts. The injuries arent so bad and nobody dies, you only risk dying if you get drunk and crash your car on the way home.

Never mess with a woman who plays rugby, they are just built a little different.

Depends. If you were silly enough to stand in front of Jonah Lomu when he was bearing down on you in full flight, it was a good idea to have your Last Will and Testament well sorted. 1.9m x 120kg x 10.7 over 100m.... probably have more chance of survival standing in front of the whole Russian army!

I spent my entire enlistment with the 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, KY.
That's awesome! You might of known my dad, he was in the 101st Airborne and was stationed there as well. You never know!

If your anything like my dad, your as tough as a grizzly bear.

You will be head of security in the Lounge Forum. Captain Tourist.

this is where you might want to stamp the ground to make it extra muddy so that Jonah Lomu cant run so fast
Theres a reason why the All Blacks do the Haka before each game

I never thought about that... But it makes good sense.

Titans stadium is made to where it can drain three inches of rain in 15 minutes.

Stomping is pointless.

That real grass is almost artificial in how that place is constructed.
