Re: Obstacles, Part 3

Actually, the infantrymen I have met (a few, not a huge sample), usually
have
the attitude, that if a particular obstacle looks dangerous, or even
inconvenient, they would be more than happy to let the engineers take
care of
it.  This is NOT a slam, just a representation of natural human laziness
and
self-preservation.

Which makes me question the true origins of engineers ;)

Anyway, the phrase that seemed to fit best: "There's never enough
engineers to
go around, and they keep trying to blow themselves up."

As far as the Carl Gustav is concerned, there are a few foreign weapon
systems
I think that the US should have bought.  That's one of 'em.
