Re:QUOTES Date Posted:2025-06-23 05:55:56Copy HTML I’ve just watched a US General talking about the Yank soldiers working with the British army, he described them as brothers from different mothers. I really like that and long may it continue No where near brothers Art. The British soldier was always well disciplined back to the dawn of time while the American Bastard soldier who never knew his father, was really just a rag tag Johnny come lately type that had to be pushed forward from the rear. Your insulting every British soldier the ever served the crown calling them brothers. ;-0 |
