In the army now

It has been fun but now my country calls for me.

I'll be going away next tuesday (02.10.2007). I'll be transported straight to my training facility for the period of 3 months. While on boot camp I don't have any communications to the outside except my cellphone and that time is also quite limited.

This isn't a real good-bye as I plan to get back here when I can but meh you'll never know.

I'd like to thank a lot of people. Some of them have never met me but ...

Spirit/Mystery:as my first real CO
Robe: as my first Alliance leader and big helper
Gontro/MillerMan: it was fun with you when CF just started and you built very good portal for us.
GMM/Weirdy/GenObiWan: thanks for helping me in the time of need.
Thufir Hawat: It was fun beeing teamed up with you, though only for a short time
All of CF/CF: I got to know so little of you but thanks for the company.
Nipi: thanks for helping a n00b to ascend couple of times and listening my rants about different things.
Jeffrysupersaian and GunniH: thanks jeff, without your n00bness I wouldn't have met with GunniH who is quite good guy
Kjakur: it was fun talking with you sometimes
Doc3an/Lajh rest of the TL/TC/TG I know: it was fun doing business with you.
S5/UM/FP members: it was fun chilling out with you
Cleo and my other officers: loyal officers are hard to find. Thanks
Flavar: I always enjoyed reading your posts and I liked you AntiBully idea
Teal'auc: it was plesure and honor knowing you.
TF: sticking up with me in times of crisis

I know that there are a lot of more players and friends that I have forgotten here but my memory isn't as good as it should be. If you think you should be here post here

Re: In the army now

You will be missed a lot, you have helped me a lot in this game and I wouldn't be where I am without your help. I am forever in your debt.

Good luck, stay safe and come back soon.
Your loyal officer, Milenko.
Never argue with idiots. They bring you down to their level and beat you with years of experience!

Re: In the army now

A very sad time for me, I'll be staying on as your officer (you cant get rid of me that easily) over a year ago since a certain female showed up in you officer list..good times in old CF/UM/S5/Brigade.
I'll keep an eye on your FP allaince members,

Keep your mobile on you at all times, that is an order, keep safe and come back ASAP.

c.c :)

Assuming you go US army, when your in the field, remember if your MRE doesn't have what you want, trade the various bits with someone else for bits of their MRE they don't want but you do.


Nop, I don't live in the states and I don't have a slightest idea what MRE is.

On the side not, I'm a pacifist. Not 100% sure that I should be there but I have to serve my time.

Alternative uses

A pastime for troops in the field is to make small explosive devices from the material inside an MRE.[14] The hydrogen produced from the FRH (flameless ration heater) is captured in the same manner as in a dry ice bomb, causing the expanding hydrogen to eventually rupture the bottle explosively. Most of the leadership frown upon this practice due to the inherent danger of any improvised explosive, especially since the bottle releases flammable hydrogen. "MRE bombs" detonated near campfires or open flames can result in serious burns. In addition, some pranksters drop small pebbles or stones into a bottle, resulting in potentially dangerous shrapnel. Another method of passing time is to put the tabasco sauce that comes in the MRE into the FRH, the effects being similar to tear gas or pepper spray.[15] In addition, the coffee creamer included in most MRE accessory packs is highly flammable.

The " MRE Bomb " works better if you pour pop into the heater instead of water. Or better yet, remove the heater component thats inside, and put it directly into a bottle of watter, or pop, then put the lid on and throw it.

If its unused, expect a quick reaction at times.

If allready used, it might take a LITTLE Longer......

For great amusment, use a larger bottle, and throw it onto a fire.

Dont be near when it explodes on a fire, however, as the gas released is flamable hydrodgen.

It creates a nice fireball, size depending on how much pressure the bottle can take, and how long it was building pressure before repturing.



LMAO! This **Filtered** sounds similar to crap from the anarchists cook book lol! Im obsessed with things that go bang :oops:

Re: In the army now

I didn't get my cell-phone working correctly (no-one didn't know what was wrong with it) so I'm putting my accounts (main and ascended) on vacation mode just in case.

Have fun everyone

See you in 3 months.
