I get D-Day.

I'm seriously frakked because I picked the sword over the rifle. I hope I can deflect MG42 fire with it...

OUtstanding, Stagger.

D-Day.

I chose the WWII American weapons but my uniform was plate mail. I also specifically avoided selecting the beach as a battleground, so this result is a bit curious.

Ah, well. Perhaps I'll be fortunate enough to land on Sword or Juno.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

D-Day. I had the good sense to pick the appropriate weaponry and kit :P

Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

I didnt take the test but I'll go with the southern flank of Kursk.   :smiley6600:
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.
