Is the way we win this war, is by us changing who we are?  I can understand safety for our soldiers and I understand this is UK, but will we do the same thing here? and if so why?  Would it not be better to instead of hiding who we are at war with and we are stop them before it comes to that?  Are we such a County of cowards that it comes to that?  I'm not talking about the regular soldier, but the people that make the decisions, are they really that naïve to think that cowering is the way to get them to stop?

US Troops Warned Not To Wear Uniform In Europe

European Command will not say what has prompted the directive, which affects some 70,000 US service members.

Spokesman Navy Capt Greg Hicks said: "We continually assess threats to our forces with and alongside our host nation counterparts, and take appropriate measures based on those assessments. 

"We will not get into the specifics of those threats nor the assessments."

I came across this site the other day, it is a food calculator for a family, that wants to put up some food for a future time that is worse than now.  I liked it for a lot of reasons, one is because it gives you various ages, also takes into account fruit and oils.

TheFoodGuys.com - Food Storage Calculator

The following calculator will help you figure the minimum food storage amounts needed for your family. These amounts are based on the recommendations listed in the LDS Church's Home Production and Storage manual. These figures are recommendations, and are basic year supply minimums only. You will need to choose the best options and foods you should store for your family.
