I mean Praetoria was a colony (now a city) in south Africa - and they think we wouldn't notice

No real desire to join this outfit. Instead, posting 'cause I ran across this researching for another post:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/3839503/Us-Army-Field-Manual-Fm-905-Jungle-Operations-How-to-Fight

Its the US Army Field Manual for jungle warfare. No, it won't help *at all* with 40k, but a.) Knowing more about your favored terrain will add verisimilitude, and b.) its always cool to read Army FMs.

"I went into a hobby-shop to play m'self a game,
The 'ouse Guru 'e up an' sez "The Guard is weak and lame!"
The Chaos gits around the shelves they laughed and snickered in my face,
I outs into the street again an' grabbed my figure-case."
Oh it's "Angels this" an' "Space-wolves that", and "Guardsmen, go away!";
But it's "Thank you for the ordnance" when the Guard begins to play,
O it's "LOOK AT ALL THE ORDNANCE!" when the Guard begins to play.."
