VFR800 Posted August 25, 2018 Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 ^^^ Reminds me of a magazine that was around when I was a teen,called Street and Strip, scantily clad women with hotted up cars where the pics were definitely better than the editorial. 2 Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted August 26, 2018 Report Share Posted August 26, 2018 I've seen this happen from standing in the heat. Wow, Liz sure looks young in that picture. 1 Quote Link to comment
VFR800 Posted August 26, 2018 Report Share Posted August 26, 2018 It's quite common for a solider to succumb to the heat in such situations and no one in the brass get mad at the solider for it. 2 Quote Link to comment

tr8er Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Honest question. Since that crap is lame as fuck to all parties involved, why are they made to do it. Is it just stubborn pride in ritual now? Maybe just a tool to stop away any remnant of ego to build team? I think it's some costly stupidity. Prove me wrong please. 2 Quote Link to comment
paradime Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) The same question can be posed for the entire royal family. England's identity is in large part based on it's passed glory as an expansionist empire. The royal family, their palace, and the queens guards displayed out front are empty symbols of a once great Britain. As hollow as that showmanship is, that imagery has an undeniable PR weight to it. Although the power differential is night and day, dinner at the White House is nothing compared to dining at Buckingham Palace with the queen. The guards may be lame as fuck to all parties involved, but they are an important public face in maintaining the illusion of greatness. Edited August 27, 2018 by paradime 2 Quote Link to comment
VFR800 Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 The Guards around Buckingham Palace are not solely show,they are comprised of UK Army and Royal Marines who are armed and those bayonets are sharp. Were a person to actually attack the ground in any way they can and would fire live rounds. Quote Link to comment
paradime Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 The palace guards might be comprised of the finest trained fighting forces England has ever produced, but it doesn't change the fact they are dressed in antiquated theatrical costume guarding a purely symbolic figure with no modern political or military significance. It's an impressive bit of very costly PR imagery. The Royals cost Brits £350 Million a year, and £100 mil of that is for security. Those ridiculous hats don't come cheep. The guards might have real bullets, but these folks are just for show. Quote Link to comment
VFR800 Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Well I'm sure you're most welcome to go test out that idea Para anytime you like ? 1 Quote Link to comment
