Walt Longmire Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 They should give Alaska a try. We have some of the largest and fastest moving tidal changes in the world. Oh, and cold water. Terrain? Yeah, we got that too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerbie18 Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Slightly off topic, but getting submerged in salt water can't be good for a rifle. I hope they thoroughly clean those things! Also, what is stopping the Navy Seals from just telling the state of Washington to kiss their ass. A local or state government doesn't have any authority over the U.S. Military.

Use is with permission. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly though, the Navy was able to take 5 acres of ocean front land with a house on it from my family back in the late 50's in order to build more Navy housing. We were forced to sell, or they would condemn it and get it for free. *******. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
