R Lee Ermey and Mail Call - Walt's Daughter - 07-29-2005


I've been meaning to send a question to R Lee Ermey who hosts the History Channel Show every week called Mail Call. It's one of my favorites. For those of you who already watch it, you know that R Lee bases his shows around viewers questions. Well I've been meaning to send a question to him for some time and while watching the show tonight and sitting in front of the computer in my office I thought, get off your BEHIND and send in your question woman!

 

My question you ask? I asked Gunny to show how a Bailey was put together. Now I have to wait and see if my question gets chosen for a show. So my buddies, watch and listen for Marion from Alger, MI. Wouldn't that be cool? B):pdt34:

 

Here's are two sites:

I'm sure there are many good combat engineers that can do a better job than Emery on "How to Build a Bailey" There are many ways, usually dictated by the site and the combat condition. The Bailey Bridge was an English invention. A Col. Bailey of the Royal Engineers invented the bridge. AL

You are absolutely right about that, so I am waiting for some detailed descriptions from you great engineers.

 

But the thing is, I thought it would be fun to get my question aired (oh boy, oh boy, oh boy) and to educate the viewers. Hey I wanna hear my name on TV. :lol::lol::lol:

 

So let's hear from ya boys. Essayons! :pdt34:
