But in all seriousness, yes, the M3 was called the Bradley, but to a lot of cavalry men its still the Devers- at least to the old timers- the new crop over the past 10 years hasn't heard about its old name.. |
It was Devers when I left the service...so shoot me (wait, that's been done
)!!!
Besides...infantry officers tended to tear up and throw hissy fits when cav was attached to their units...it was that cocky, know-it-all atitude that comes with the knowledge that in a real fight, with armored cavalry...infantry was just another name for "track lubricant"!!!
