so is the military that great? i really like everything you've listed but i dont wanna leave colorado.whoever built that log cab,thats very nice work!!!
GreatWhiteHunter - if you ask 100 people that have served in the military that question, you will probably get 100 different answers - but they will have one thing in common. The bond that you build with your fellow Soldier, Sailor, Airman or Marine will last a lifetime.Quote:

My point was - the military is not for everybody. If you do not want to leave Colorado don't join the military, for if you do.....you will most assuredly leave Colorado for sunnier and warmer climates.
:( that sucks!!
You see - that's why I said stay in Colorado. I know that I and many others would be proud to once again serve side by side with those serving today. Not that we would look forward to it, but rather out of a sense of duty.
Stay in Colorado.
im still thinking about joining,i really would love to serve the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Crash, I agree. I would do it without hesitation. well maybe just a little hesitation.:eek:Quote:

Is this about a small cabin or whether or not Colorado is moveing??? Or are you tring
to get this guy to join up? I built a small cabin it was 10x10 took 2 months. I also left the U.S. in 1965 came back in 1986 Colorado was right where it was when i left.
As far as joining the army, airfarse, navy, or jarheads is up to YOU! I say DO IT!!!!!!!!!
Without the "U.S. Air force" The "U.S. Army" would be standing on the beach waving to the U.S. Marines and U.S. Navy as they go off to fight Americas enemies.Quote:

Man, that's quite a list, is it Captain America and his little pal Bucky? Just a guess:cool:,
Hey cabin building guy, yeah, if you're a thousand miles from any town in Canada, there wasn't any cell phone service to begin with and you're pretty much ****ed unless you've got some major wilderness skills, or a plane coming for you, so maybe dream up a different scenario.
Delta Forces,?
One problem with people like GWH, is that they are cityfied and unable to understand a rural or wilderness environment. They have romantisized possible wilderness events based on Hollywood, TV etc...
Akhio ????

Not the Peace Corp is it?
The akhio is a fiberglass sled designed to carry up to 200 lb of equipment. Infantry squads usually use them to carry their 10-man tent, stove, fuel, water, and other equipment.
The akhio can also be used to evacuate a casualty.
The sled weighs 38 lb and measures 88 x 24 x 8 in. Three rails on the bottom help the sled track in a straight line.
Maneuvering the fully loaded akhio requires the coordinated efforts of up to four individuals, especially on turns.
Peace Corp? You need some coffee.
Is it the BSA? or are they the new Home Land Security? Now those guys have some very cool toys!!!!!!
It is the U.S. Air Force Combat Control Team (CCT). This article will give you an idea of what these American Warriors do.

so im "citified"?i live in the mountains of colorado not near any towns,i was just asking if someone could or can do it.
Well you sort of asked that, but not really. You implied that you were only planning on staying the night. The initial responses you got addressed building a shelter for the night. Now - could I - yes. To do so properly would take me much longer than a few hours to have shelter for the night. Depending on the size, it could take several months or and entire season to build and chink properly.Quote:

Air Force, they are PJ's I think.Quote:

I would just say you do need a cabin keep a trap in your truck and you have instant lean to....
sorry I mean you don't need a .cabin
It would take a week of chopping wood just to build a "cabin" and by that time you would freeze to death or spend so much time you wouldn't have enough time for food etc. Plus if you were 1,000 miles from a town then I am not sure how well you cell phone would work either. If it did work then your GPS signal would bounce off towers creating a triangle effect and generally they would be able to tell where you were within a 20-30 mile radius which if you are in Canada in the area where you could be 1,000 miles from a town then you would be hard to find. Either way how would you get 1,000 miles from a town without someone knowing the area where you were or having some type of transportation.
Very well put Primeelite. How about lumbering on over to the introduction section and tell us a bit about yourself. Thanks.
