Military Humor and related
Re: Military Humor and related
Picked up a well worn out book "Tales of the British Raj" from the local library.
It is fairly well written and refreshingly free from the social enginerring attempts books written on the same subject. The author pretty much make the same point as the consensus reached on this forum, that the punjabi mussalmani was the 4th best soldier material for the indian army. Known to sell his loyalty to the first invader and not stand his ground in face of attack.
The martial race hierarchy was as follows: First the Gurkha (reminds them of the scotsman); Sikh ( tough soldier material but given to vanity and difficult to govern) ; Hindu Jat( solid performance in defensive actions) and then the Punjabi mussalmans. The Marathas also receive good marks for good hill fighters and quick in adpating to innovation.

Now now, to be fair and equal-equal, he Punjabi Mussalmans are expert downhill skiers and quick in adapting to innovation such as khaki camouflage.Paul wrote:The Marathas also receive good marks for good hill fighters and quick in adpating to innovation.

laugh-ass
they may be deadly, but I find them funny looking - especially the way they're crouching on a Segway.

Re: Military Humor and related
A C-5 Galaxy was idylling near a small plane which was waiting to take off.
The private pilot got a little nervous because of the C5 getting closer than normal & asked the tower to find out the intentions of the C-5.
Before the tower could reply, a voice came over the radio as the C-5′s nose cargo doors opened, saying, "I'm going to eat you"

Re: Military Humor and related
^^ It's really funny, but it's also a small example of how the 'badass', 'rambo' aura is created around the US armed forces. Everybody else is a stupid raghead/russkie/SDRE.
So you have Transformers 2, where the Decepticons are annihilating the pyramids in Egypt, and of course only the US forces can be part of the rescue; the sum total of local reinforcements are two Jordanian helicopters, who are promptly shot down. The Egyptian forces were probably cowering in some dark holes somewhere.
Oh well. It's their movie, so what can this SDRE say... except pass the popcorn.

Kasab to be enumerated for Census today
Kasab to be enumerated for Census today
Reason for migration to India? What is your job profile? What is the nature of your job? These are few of the questions that Pakistani terrorist Ajmal Kasab will have to answer when Census enumerators visit him in Arthur Road jail on Thursday. Kasab, whose death sentence was upheld by the Bombay High Court on Monday, would be among the over 2,000 inmates of the high-security Arthur Road Jail to be counted by BMC enumerators.
The questions relate to marital status, education, job profile, nature of service, religion, mother tongue, date of birth, languages known, source of income, nationality among others. "All prisoners, Indians or foreigners, lodged in jails at both Arthur Road and Byculla would be counted during the exercise. Kasab will also be counted and he will have to answer a set of questions relating to personal details, education, nature of work etc," Dr S D Thosar, Assistant Health Officer (Census) said.

Re: Military Humor and related
Does anyone have the set of "Kushboo" jokes written by a BRfite years ago. It was written in 2005, I think. If someone has them, please post them.
Those were epic.
PS: I think it's name was kushboo, but i could be wrong.
