BBC reports that the British Army is denying that it has unleashed man-eating killer badgers in Basra, Iraq in order to spread fear and panic.

BUT...

if these reports turn out to be true, perhaps we can convince GHQ to model some 1/285 Mk 1 Badgers, Man-Eating?

Anyone have the TO&E for a Badger unit?

Bada-bing!

How do I always get dragged into these things?

I am not now, nor have I ever been, a Badger.

I don't know anyone named Bucky. Never have. You can't prove I have. Or if you can, I didn't know it at the time. Or if I did, I don't recall. You can't prove I knew at the time, or that I had any intention of being a badger. It was an accident, I swear it!

Out of all of our members, I am about the least likely to be found in Wisconsin. Too d@mned cold, or the mosquitos are too numerous and too big, depending on the time of year. Also, brats and cheese do not rise to the top of my personal culinary tastes.

GEEeess Mk1...if you ever come over here I will cook you up some beer brats that will definitely change your mind. The cold and the mosquitos,...well... eat enough beersoaked brats and you just don't notice them...

So, do you have any Badger relatives in the middle east then?

Well as one very proud Badger all I can say is if you were and you're denying it now how sad.

But I agree with jb - a little beer and bratwurst will convert anyone.

Plan on just that the weekend of Aug 11 at the Rd America ALMS race.

Badgers, Badgers.. we don't need no stinking Badgers

With my appologies to Mr Bogart

Badgers don't stink

Especially when they are armed with Tommy guns

Just got my order in of Badger Tommy Gunners that was shipped directly from GHQ.
I just finished painting these fierce little guys and added them to a US infantry squad for back-up

...so,its true!!...

So, let's see if I recognize that squad.

We've got Sgt Saunders at the lead.

Littlejohn on the BAR.

Looks like Guage tossing the grenade ...

And then Buckey, Bucky and Buckee?
