I still get to fire them (the MkIII) from time to time with the Reserves (National Guard for our American cousins) and I do enjoy it.

Actually, we American cousins have both Reserves and National Guard. Reserves are directly under the command of the federal government, and National Guard (despite the name) are controlled by the governments of the individual states, unless nationalized (usually in time of war).

Xausa,

I stand corrected

I had a quick look on wikki and it said you have approx. 205,000. Pretty big compared to our poultry 17,000 approx. active reservists.
