M1A2 Abrams didn’t place.





OBAMUNISM, The Party

Six NATO countries squared off last week in the Strong Europe Tank Challenge, a two-day competition that pitted some of the alliance’s best tank crews against each another in a series of events centered on armored warfare. The challeng was the first of its kind there since 1991.

The challenge featured seven tank platoons in total. Denmark, Germany, Italy, Slovenia and Poland all competed with one platoon, while the United States sent two. Each platoon included four tanks manned by four men. Germany took the gold in its Leopard 2A6 tanks, followed by Denmark and Poland in second place and third place respectively, while the U.S. Army in the M1A2 Abrams didn’t place.
I am mildly surprised that the Abrams tank, the preeminent tank in the world just 8 years ago, had lost some edge;  but JFC! The U.S. Army in the M1A2 Abrams didn’t place?  And that's against NATO tanks. 

Like all of you, the Obama occupation has been a nightmare event for me; but I, we here, have done just about all we could do without .. you know—being responsible for a slew of Obama Highs, and Obama  airports.   However, and I'm not making this up, while I am grateful for a long life of living in the greatest country the world has known, a current blessing is that I am 95 years old, and waiting for my ship to sail into the sunset.  Oh, one other thing, knowing my kids will eventually say, "Mom and Dad were right."
