I live here in Denver Colorado, and I was attached to the Marine Corps Reserve. I was stationed out at Buckley, Air National Guard Bass. I was with the big guns. I mean 155 canons. I got out in 1994.

We’re doing a project in History on World War II and we each had to choose a sub topic (like transportation, strategy, that sort of thing) and I got transportation. So, I want to know like the kind of trucks they used to transport everything from food to soldiers but also the trucks they used to fight with (you know the ones with the big guns on the back). Thanks ahead of time for anyone who knows!

it looked like the pics you see of the men and women patrolling the streets of iraq, on the big tank-type vehicles (but the kind w/ actual wheels, not those weird chain thingies) where they’re standing on top with their m-16′s or whatever big guns out and ready, just in case, only it was on a california freeway! we’re far from any base that i know of, they were headed north, and san diego is south of me. 29 palms and all that, im not sure what direction that is from me, but its a good 1.5 hrs away. so what im basically wondering is, i’ve seen military vehicles before, but never w/ the boys on top with their giant guns out in their hands! does anyone know what this was? i assume the guns werent loaded and it was some kind of training activity, but i grew up in a HEAVILY military populated area and have never seen this before, especially not on the freeway and not w/ the guns out!
lol i was NOT being paranoid, i could plainly see them, and im very used to seeing military vehicles on the road. like i said, i grew up in norfolk, va, look it up, world’s largest naval base, but anyway, i’ve seen a million convoys and military vehicles by themselves, and w/ the boys standing on top, but never holding guns. they weren’t small guns, they were BIG, so i didn’t imagine them. and im not being paranoid b/c i didn’t find this sight worrisome in the least, i just am curious to know if anyone w/ any military background whatsoever knows why they would have been there like that. like i said, i assume it was training, but what a long way from base they were!
it wasn’t a tank w/ a mounted gun, they were guns the boys were holding. and i highly doubt it was a movie shoot, although a good theory, because we were in rush hour on friday afternoon in heavy traffic on the 15 freeway. about 2 hours north of camp pendleton.

ok lets say your the president of a small country like sri lanka or Lebanon and you had 17 billion dollars to spend on your military this is money apart from your national budget maybe donated from various countries what would you spend it on?

Here what i would do:

100 mig 29’s 50 million each 5 billion

8 navy frigates 250 million each 2 billion

500 Leopard 2 tanks 5 million each 2.5 billion

25 gazelle helicopters 500 million

2 billion for armored vehicles and rifles vests etc.

And the rest of the 5 billion will go towards anti missile defenses really big guns and bonuses for the troops.
please no body answer this question by telling me that it should be spent on food or the homeless etc… i like military hardware and this is a military topic so please if your not gunna answer the question with something related to the question than dont answer

i am not only saying that they suck but they have guns made specialy for them like the police model f57, its heavier than military guns like other cop guns. and also unlike the military police dont seem to use assault or other big guns like Mg’s and shot guns , onyl for special occasions. when i say cops i means swat, fbi, and etc.
