Both been to, and removed from the tree...


Gives you that warm and fuzzy feeling as you hand the cat back to the crying little girl at 10pm...  :-)

I know a certain brigade that went to two cat up trees.

I think it was the same cat.

The first time it was brought down with a 64

The second time a shotgun.

Really not my way and not a good way for people to see the service but i guess whoever called them musnt of been complaining.

Illegal use of a firearm would come to mind.. but anyway..




Have also attended birds up trees, and a few people stuck up trees...

It's just like the Americans giving the Iraqi's "Liberty" :P

How well does a 64mm work? Sure it would get the cat out, but would the cat survive?
