I haven't got a clue what 'wolf nipple chip' could be... :-\  please enlighten us Fenton!
Also, to keep it military; I always wondered what the Americans meant during the ACW when they said they were going to give the enemy 'a good licking'... :o

Cheers,

You are of course correct

Wolf nipple chips is a great set of words

Reiter, Panzerschreck, and some of the more obscure German vehicle names make for interesting punctuation.

Ah! Commando comics. Not forgetting War, Battle and Air Ace, as well as the Victor, Hotspur etc.

I always thought it odd that Europeans (dirty Hun) when visited by some catastrophe such as a bayonet to the guts or a hand grenade up the bunker always responded with "arrrgh!", wheras for the oriental (nasty Nipponese) it was "aieee!".

Sounds like part of a Monty Python sketch  " Stop killing me ... I've come here for an argument!..Sorry this is being hit on the head lessons..you want next door on the left"
