Take your Baby to a good Hospital.

jefy:
my 3weeks old baby has these terrible rashes under her neck, head and it seems to be spreading to her head. We have tried white capsules, red soap, black soap and all other suggestions from older folks, but it seems not to help. Mothers in the house, how do you handle such issues. its kinda worrying and I know it sometimes itches the little child. I would be glad to get help from experienced mothers in the house.

Noted. But in a way u made my point that its the men that make or break the battle more than the equipment. Shall we agree to disagree?
Patchesagain:
I know it wasnt aimed at any group, thats why I responded seriously.

With regards to preparation that goes to training and doctrine.

The American difficulties in Afghanistan and Iraq were specifically because they actually learn anything from Veitnam. The lessons they learnt in 'Nam were applied in the Gulf-War 1: over-whelming firepower, precision air-power and, most importantly, clear and limited political objectives.

None of these lessons were applied to Afghanistan. At one point there were less American troops in Afghanistan than police in New York!
Foreign Affairs › Re: African Militaries/ Security Services Strictly Photos Only And Videos Thread by Patented: 3:35pm On May 17, 2018
And that inadequate preparation was only seen with the benefit of hindsight. So basically the test of your preparation is battle. Without that its just words and stats on paper. My earlier statement was nt targetted at any group, it cuts both waysuote author=Patchesagain post=67640278]

Yes, you need skills to use them.

If you are properly trained, your high end precision rifle will be better than a crossbow.

I dont see how effective employment of weaponry related to COIN. The American weapons worked just fine in Vietnam, they never lost major engagement. Ditto for the Russians in Afghanistan.

What you are confusing here is skills training and doctrine.

Experience is irrelevant as well, when compared to training and doctrine.

The simple fact of the matter is that those flaws you pointed out came from militaries that werent prepared for the type of war they faced.[/quote]

If you give me a high precision sniper rifle, it may be no more effective than crossbow. Shiny tools are nice but someome very skilled has to use them. Stats on paper can be crappy. If nt America will be done and dusted in Afghanistan, wont have spent ages in vietnam. Ussr wld hv succeeded in Afghanistan, BH wld hv been decimated in weeks of their 2nd coming, the black hawk down ish wld never have happened.

Seriously, I think it is high time Nigeria stops all these "We have the largest, biggest, fastest stuff in the whole world." It is becoming embarrassing, especially when reality often proves otherwise.

Clearly, our MI-35M is not the best of the MI series, just like the 120kmph on our trains is not the fastest in Africa as some government officials claimed. Those are undebatable facts.

Let us deal with them instead of engaging in pointless arguments.

For me, the MI-35M still fits our current need perfectly. However, in the nearest future when Nigeria becomes a better and more proactive country with a clear cut procurement policy, the MI-28 am Ka-52 are great Assault Helicopters of choice.

Pets › Re: Is My Dog Pregnant by Patented: 1:59pm On Apr 06, 2018
Thirty days ago means if she is pregnant she should be half way through her gestation period. so if there is no Belly expansion at all she might not be preggy.
