Still got all of your digits left? That has got to be some of the most tense work a human can do. Friends dad worked for police bomb squad. And he had 85% of his fingers left when he retired. Was pretty good we think. | |

I was in Iraq just over a year ago running around with a Traxxas Slash. I wish I had a crawler at that time... Only people I ever saw with Talons were EOD and route clearance. My company was stationed out of Ballad doing route clearance and burn missions.

Well first off welcome to RCC. Second, I'd like to personally thank you for your service. Now, since I'm from a military family and a vendor here on RCC I'm giving you a free pair of Cromoly sliders for your Honcho. Just PM me an address and I'll make a set for you and mail them out. I hope this will make your stay in country a little more bearable.
