Military abbreviations - 2 ideas, plz look ;)

deadb_tch · 29-01-2008, 09:16 PM

Guys, when I was first time on this forum I was in hell when tried to recognize all that abbreviations that used in uk and us english for military purposes.
I've searched the forum and found no thread (may be I have bad luck) where everyone can share their knowledge in military abbreviations, just like a little dictionary. It is the first idea.
The second is to create a quiz based on military abbreviations

.

Just like 'Name that vehicle' - but 'What da hell is that INFTRGFDSgh?'

PS: plz excuse me if this ideas r looking weird - it is 0:15 and night is over here

Hell i was wondering too, and by the way im not good in english but those abbreviations was unknown to me

I have other question, why there isn't a subforum who is dedicated to other history not connected to ww2 ? I know the site is based on ww2 ,but can't you make an exception ?

Dani,
Use the 'Prewar' forum:

That's what it's there for.

(But please, keep it chilled mate.)

Cheers,
Adam.
