Now I'm awake I do know a couple of kiwi's that trained at Duntroon and Pukapunyal in Aussie as part of their officer training. And the reverse too, Aussie Squadron leaders serving in the RNZAF etc. I'm also sure I've seen Poms serving in both Aussie and NZ and Kiwis serving in the US military as far back as Vietnam, most likely earlier. Particularly special forces like the NZ SAS. Even the UK SAS had troops fighting with the SEALS etc. I'm not sure if the Kiwi's still do as the Yanks got a bit upset in the late 80's when the NZ government told them to keep their nuclear vessels at home and the ANZUS treaty dissolved.

Actually NZ No2 Squadron was stationed in Aussie permanently in the later years of its life too.

People always get exchange tours it's a normal part of Forces life. One of my mates was a bit pissed off a few years ago when he was being sent to fly Phantoms with the German Air Force he wanted something with the USAF. He was glad when it fell through.

So I been thinking why does he have a US Marine Tatoo on him when he is Mexican

any ideas?

That's easy. He lived in the US. Heaps of Mexicans in the US military.

with Mexican citizenship?

Yes. Brits too. And Puerto Ricans. And Salvadorians, Belizeans. And lots of Hondurans. In fact, to infiltrate the USA, former-KGB use these routes to get operatives in (Guatemalan pinkos rule in Honduras. You or I could be a Honduran in five minutes).

It's like paying for college except you get US citizenship. "Once there was a dream that was Rome <puke off camera to excess>"

In UK, these days they just use SudAfrikaans cheap labour when there are insufficient Irish.

That's the way of the world.

At least in Puerto Rico you get hard liquor at a ball game.



PS. Gaucho has the tatt cos he's a ponce-u-like-twat at heart. Hard to admit, but Joe excess defines the reality these days.

That sucks. Luftwaffe are good for nothings: beyond patrolling the "German Sea" with the TR3s.

At least they werent putting them in the same drink like the Eyeties throughout the 90s.

a more pertinent question might be why's a Mexican named after a type of Argentinian cowboy?

Young man, there's no need to feel down

Just see a shrink, he'll get your feet on the ground

It's just Gaucho, a painted tattoo is there,

There's no need .. to .. feel .. unhappy!


It's fun to repaint old Joes for AF

And give them new names, oh ye-es!

In years to come, the forums will enjoy

Debating, why we repainted old Joe toys....

[excuse] it's late! [/excuse]
