It was in 1990, I was in Canada watching the news. Cant tell you which division it was, but they justified it saying the bikes were not detectable by radar and were cheap to produce. True it may have been stretching the truth saying it was "recent" but I do remember it quite vividly (my father was on transfer to the Canadian Air Force and couldn't believe they'd enact something like that).

Eh, I'd take a Jarhead Officer over a german one anyday. Our Major was sent to Iraq, got shot 4 times and refused to leave the battle. A general in D.C. had to call him over satellite phone to tell him to let someone else take over.
