#1 If they add enough more battalions, they will have to rename it the Rapid Action Division. That would be so RAD.

#4 Don't worry, Steve. I hear they're instituting an inter-RAB shutter gun loan system.

#7 Guns they got; I am more concerned about how the loan program for the 'round of bullet' will work

#8 Well, as long as it's a round of "bullet" and not the whole cartridge they can keep costs down considerably.

#9 I've just tried explaining the romantic aspects of the RAB to my wife, but one has to EXPERIENCE these singular press releases to appreciate the role these distinctive units play in the War on Terror.

One day, my Grandkids will be slogging through some tome on the war on terror as yet unwritten, and I will reminisce when they get to the Chapter on the R-A-B.
