He, he, thanks, in here seems that some civilians are preparing the extinction of the military.

I’m not trying to be funny, but what purpose do the Argentine armed forces actually serve? Like it or not you will never be able to win a war with the UK over the Falklands if they decide to fight (bigger population base and much bigger GDP = only one result). That just leaves the Beagle Channel dispute with Chile. Unless that is likely to turn hot or you guys decide to join in in Afghanistan (unlikely, as frankly you’re nowhere near up to scratch and have no interest in doing so) you have no use for armed forces.

I know, my laugh was a bit sardonic.

Ouff, that ought a very long answer, better other day, in other topic.
For start I think a good use would be wiping out people with questions like that.

Tonigh I am nostalgic…

If you know some spanish check this epigraph: ( what a times !!)

#66

Translation please.

#67

Okay , but havent you study a little spanish in the school ? :rolleyes:

#68

Sadly I didn’t - I was too busy doing French, German and Latin. Not that I claim to be any good at languages either…

#69

I think the US ( place where Rifleman lives) spanish is in the High school programme, not sure aniway.

#70

Yep, they teach it there, along with French, and German, sometimes one even finds Latin being taught. I personally know enough German to get drunk, or slapped, perhaps both,:slight_smile:

#71

I have a cheap school and wont teach German, just Spanish and Japanese, I understand about…7% of all Spanish, which really sucks. Kinda learned it in English class couple years back. Anyway I’m in 8th grade which is only based on core subjects so no language class, sad for me :(.

#72

Japanese??? in Indiana??

#73

I let you that as homework.

This is a nice find, my father serving in the Argentine Navy in the late 1950s. The aircraft is a North America AT-6 texan.:slight_smile:

I have a lot of pictures of the navy in this period, I should open a gallery with that.

#74

Other picture of the oldman next to the Texans ( well…he wasnt so old at that time ;)) 4th from the left.

#75

It looks like he was a pilot.

#76

Yea, Japanese is one of the languages you can learn, surprised that they don’t teach Chinese.

#77

It looks like he was a pilot.

No really, just ground personel, mechanic.

#78
