I couldn't resist.  If we could clone Jig and make those clones into an artillery crew, this is what you would get:

They moved my cube at work to make room for more hot 20-something HR chicks.   uglystupid2
Its like the scene in Animal House:

"l'd like you to meet Mohammet Jugdish, Sidney and Clayton. Grab a seat and make yourselves at home."

Surrounded by Indians, IT guys, I don't know what the hell they talk about all day.
But I have seen them watch crazy ass Indian Military videos like this, from the Ministry of Odd Walks.

Interesting video.

Having (formerly) been an artillery officier, I see that things have been modernized significantly.   A towed SP 155?   Hadn't seen that before but, it's been a long time so, I'm not surprised.    As I remember, the SOP required a battery to be able to put rounds down range within two minutes of receiving a fire mission but, I'm not 100% sure on that but it was pretty close to that time frame.

I am impressed with the three prep rounds but wonder what their sustained  rate of fire per minute is?    Those tubes heat up pretty quickly.   Cool video but a pretty funny routine just for the camera crew movement.  

Italian Hindu huh?   Hmmm.........   I wonder just how many of those there are????  Wink
Not that there's anything wrong with that...   2funny

Hindu may be an incorrect jump.  The one at the controls appears to be Sikh.

You know, I was originally going to go with Sikh. But then I thought, they are Hindu. Sikh's don't jumpstep like that.  Smiley

You know that hippity hop marching is right out of the British colonial era (some years ago).

They really have it down too.  This is first class marching.

And walking.

I suppose an Inzane drill team could worked up......after the beer is gone.  (do we have any former DIs?)

You were probably partially correct The "marching" fellows are not Sikh as the Sikhs must wear there own headgear at all times.  The Indian (and Pakistani?) armies will include Sikhs with their majority Hindu (Pakistani muslim) members.

I just figured Gig was the Sikh.   Wink

Who would THAT be?
Hate to burst your bubble there, Lizzard, but that urban legend was related to me by a stewardess friend who claims it is a widespread practice in the airline industry.
Besides, everyone knows I don’t wash my underwear!  uglystupid2

I think I figured out the strategy from the Ministry of Silly Walks.  Get the enemy laughing so hard their eyes tear up and they can't shoot.
