Anyone willing to attack an armored car using an umbrella has my respect.
Did you notice his sister served as well? I wonder what she did. BTW, that guy was a total Studly! (a little whacked in the head, but absolutely studly)"Don't worry about the bullets, I've got an umbrella"
Holy sh*t.

I was thinking about that the other night.... it'd be interesting to do a comparative study of the casualty rates amongst bag-pipe playing, claymore-wielding lunatics and the general population of whatever units to which the aforementioned lunatics were assigned.Probably most of these crazies (umbrella-wielding, longbow-shooting, whatever) got weeded out Darwin-style and went trampled unnoticed.
"studly" is most often used to indicate that someone (usually male) is a "stud", implying strong, brave, exemplary, etc.For the non-native speakers: What does that mean?
You only hear about the ones that lived.I was thinking about that the other night.... it'd be interesting to do a comparative study of the casualty rates amongst bag-pipe playing, claymore-wielding lunatics and the general population of whatever units to which the aforementioned lunatics were assigned.
A line attributed to Chesty Puller is "Dying is what lieutenants do."

I'm inclined to think that you're right, and that the casualty rates were much higher, but I'd be curious to put some numbers to it and know just how much higher.
