Only the Swiss would make a toggle locked 24mm autocannon.

Portuguese Paras in Central African Republic. Note the P38 variant in the holster.
Yep we still use those. Though i thought they were out of circulation in the recent years in exchange for newer SIG Sauer P228´s and USP Compact´s.
Is the audio fucked up for anyone else?
I forgot to post this a few weeks ago when I took this in the parking lot of a Jack's.

I see military shit go by at least once a week on my commute either to or from work.
Once on a roadtrip I saw a convoy of Strykers parked at the side of the road with some soldiers lingering about.
Wait even UN is going multicam?
The UN doesn't pick camouflage.
Yeah, the UN doesn't pick their uniforms or anything beyond some stuff like blue helmets/armbands/etc. to signify that whatever U.N. member state's forces participating in U.N. operations are doing so officially.
I really like the Uzi.

The Bundeswehr's official YouTube channel is a gloriously strange thing.

Some Yugo AK's
super sturdy, thanks to these being designed for use with rifle grenades. and they can usually be found adorned with trench art.
I'm guessing 6 8 95 is a date? Since Yugoslavia used day month year that would be August 6th, the middle of Operation Storm, the last battle of the Croatian Homeland War.
I want to see Tarantino direct a film about the Battle for Castle Itter.
And pretty much every other country in the world, yes. As usual, dating-systems is the US being weird.
Speaking of US being weird and Yugo AKs, back when I was in the US and went to a gun shop 'cause guy I was with had to grab some stuff, I found a parts-kit for a M70 with some pretty hefty battle-wear and some cyrillic writing carved into the furniture. Certainly a rifle with quite some history of genociding bosniaks, most likely
Keep in mind the ISO date format is Year.Month.Day. So the U.S. system is closer to correct than the rest of the world which does theirs backwards.
Yeah and the ISO week starts on Thursday, how does the ISO doing it make it "closer to correct"
Well, their job is to define standards and the correct way of indicating things do, pretty close.
It's still just as arbitrary as any other ordering of dates.
"Arbitrary" doesn't mean they're all equally useful. The ISO people know what they're doing.
ISO order means a lexical sort is a chronological sort. Take a pile of dates, and sort them as numbers (with leading zeroes on months/days) from least to greatest, and only ISO format makes that sort them chronologically. It puts the most significant components first, then proceeds straight down to the least significant.
European-style is okay for just dates, since it's basically just a right-to-left mirror of ISO, but once you add time to it, it turns just as ugly as US-style, since you always put the hour first, then the minute.
US dates make no fucking sense, at least ISO or the rest of the world follow the logic of going from Small to Big or Big to Small.
My fucking register is the only component in our store that uses the American system for some god-forsaken reasons and it always fucks me up when I see something like 11/12/2018.
US dates are based on how you'd speak them aloud, and they sort better within the same year.
The rest of the world says day month when we speak.
Are you sure you're not getting it backwards and you speak that way because it's how you're used to dates being written?
It's possible, but doubtful. Canadians primarily write d/m/y but speak m/d/y, and in Britain it was common to speak d/m/y when speaking formally back when the written standard was still m/d/y there. It used to be, and in the US still is, that d/m/y is the formal way of saying a date, and m/d/y is the casual. I do think the ISO standard is the best of the three for its sorting value, but if you eliminate the year component it's the same as the American format.
