No, no, not modern body armor. I'm talking about a clank-clank-help-me-with-this-shit suit of armor.

And a codpiece



?

No, but I know a guy who owns a running Leopard 1 A5 tank, so I've got that going for me.

No articulated plate armour or codpiece.

I never understood codpieces. Why on earth would you put a fish so close to your male genitalia? Doesn’t it start to smell?

I've been wearing a cod piece ever since the spring of 2008.

How about a bomb suit? I have a Med Eng EOD9 if that qualifies. They need help getting on, are heavy, limit movement AND have a cod piece of sorts.




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Is it just me? Or does Para seem to be considering several new sub-forums?

No suit of armor, but I did have a piece of cod for supper.

Same!

I'd wager this is rare. Somewhere between the real Bruce Wayne out there somewhere -- and I'm talking about the Michael Keaton one, with the ancient military suit collection -- and "I just got out of a time machine," rare.

But if that's true, that doesn't make it OK either...

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Hmm. One thread about black powder cannons; another about moats; and another about clankity clank armour with codpieces.

Has someone been reading about the 100 Years War Battle of Crécy fought on August 26, 1346? Those items were present at this event.

I'm beginning to think that Para is sick of people asking dumb or easily searched questions.

Not necessarily on this forum but everywhere on the net.

It's led to me leaving some sites.
