GL selling livestock!

[doghead]

I know it's wrong JH, but seriously, that was the NSN they list in the auction.

 

[rlwm211]

That's a CIVIL WAR NSN that is why it is non-standard.....

In all seriousness, and I am seriously serious......the Special Forces were evaluating using mules in Afganistan when I was in the Army a few years ago.
There was an article in Army Times about it if I remember correctly.

Do they have a pony to go with it? I always wanted a duece and a 1/2!

Well....if it was a gelding it's already missing a couple of nuts.

both horses aren't too old and are both at pendleton.. hmm


will be watching. I know a good home for these two. Anyone know the origins of what the horses were last being used for? One is a mustang and the other is a Tennessee walking horse

Careful and be sure to watch for forklift damage ......

first thought was the bent drive shaft on my 1028..... i feel sorry for the horses!

I just can't improve upon that one!

personally, I hate horses, but I'll save those reasons/stories for around a SS rally campfire.

I like horses, taste like chicken! As Uncle Ted says, ya gotta kill it before ya grill it.

 

[Boss Doug]

Mutilation not required?

 

[swbradley1]

Watch one of us(SS) get these and try driving them home(1000 miles or more).

That would be a real Iron Butt recovery.

 

[dc3coyote]

If you do win and try and ride it home, remember that cops will arrest you for riding a horse while intoxicated. The reason I know that is a great story for sitting around the fire.

Hey, at least they would have brakes.

There is an FM for using animals by SF.
