Mike, trained forces don't have dirty weapons.


Actually, I meant to say "untrained" as should be apparent within the
context of the sentence.


If you had ever been in the
military and had weapons training you'd know that.


Growing up in a house with several hundred pistols and rifles (my father
is collector); qualifying with .45, 9mm, and M-60 in the military
frequently flying with an firing the (M-60 in the door of my helo); and
visiting the range at least once a month now, I'm quite well aware of
that.

As I said, it was a typo: I meant to say "untrained."


The only time I came across
dirty weapons they were either abandoned or USAF aircrew weapons in my last
unit since they tended to not clean their weapons even after firing them,



Not surprising...given it's the USAF we're talking about. ; )


Now how is a "gazillion trained bodies" with weapons NOT a major force?



Because they were "untrained."
