Evidence of rotj in the redwood forests?

^Any time something in N. America is called old, up jumps a European to school us on what old really is. Usually it's about manmade structures---I never thought we'd be out-olded on a tree! :lol

When it comes to military, us Euro trash suck, but when it comes to old stuff, we rule :lol
The city I live in has a city wall, it's just some 700-800 years old :p

That depends on how you define suck because I know that England has regiments that are older than the US and I'd imagine that a lot of other European countries have equally old units.
 
On a personal note, I'd love to go visit the Redwoods anyway. Some of those trees are as old 500 years plus, I heard. To put that into perspective, European explorers were just starting trading routes to the New Continent when some of those trees were a sapling.
Some redwoods live to 2000 years. On average, those you will be seeing are 500-700 years. Bristlecone pines, same area, can live to 5000 years.

You have a good point there. From what I understand, few members of NATO actually meet the mandated defense spending requirement set out in the charter.

Here's a joke or, well it's not really but it is something which should be a joke because it's so funny. Something that recently made the news here in my LITTLE country.

A number of soldiers getting stationed where no soldiers have been stationed for almost 10 years.. that is not the funny part though. The number of soldiers is the funny part:
one hundred, and fifty soldiers. That's it.

If someone wanted to invade that part of Sweden, what would those 150 soldiers do exactly, against, say an invasion force of 5000 :facepalm
I might have thought it was "okay" if they had been Ewoks, because we know how good Ewoks perform against imperial forces as an example :lol

Great, I broke the internet...

Anyway, these are no longer in the forest, either...
