    Moving to Bahia Blanca

    If you are a sailor you'll probably be provided a house on post. The base is actually super super nice.

    Soldiers who should face a firing squad before they die of natural causes

    Soldiers who should face a firing squad before they die of natural causes

    What a well balanced, fair opinion. We should take our hats off to you. :) I couldn't agree with you more. It's really bad that justice came too late for many of the victims that fell in the hands of unscrupulous men that were supposed to defend our Nation. However, it's a lot worse that...
