Re: Dark Earth Orders of Battle

Wow Simon. Just a quick question. In the UK non-human species have their own regiments. Is this the case in other countries, I didn't notice any from a quick scan?

Re: Helpful English Phrases!

I have a 1930s book, Lyalls Languages of Europe, which provides useful phrases in multiple European languages for the British traveller.

Ones I liked were

Which way is the aerodrome?

and

Waiter! Fetch me a boiled egg and a bottle of brandy immediately.

Re: UAP hearing July 26th

Anyone catch this today?

My impression was that the committee took this seriously and will proceed to dig into the subject in closed hearings.

Whether or when we get to find out anything I don't know.

Re: What went wrong with Force Z?

Thanks Rich,
