Unlike the truly fantastic US army we know and love that never fucks up anything...ever in an even remotely hight profile way.

that is debatable, but you can't argue that we're not fucking awesome at killing shit. we can kill anything.

He's right you know. 1st gulf war the merkins bombed our special horses guys even though they have union jacks on their cars. 2nd gulf war, they've shot at us, at least the ordinance is getting smaller.

we might have a problem with killing shit we're not supposed to, but damn we do that killing well.

Actually, i recon that the US army probably has one of the worst Kill/$ of any army currently in conflict.

You could pretty much replace the lot with trained chimps

that's on purpose, we need to generate money for Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, etc.

our army is rubbish too but hey, at least we make pretty good weapons (i think)

Not that keen on the P90, doesn't really suit me.

?

i don't quite see how the papal guards fit in this discussion.

I was replying to Prof's kill/$ of armies, but I didn't notice the 'in conflict' bit.

Considering the Swiss Guard haven't really killed anybody since the nineteenth century, I'd say they've probably got a higher $/Kill.

there a bit like the queen aren't they? Good for publicity, but otherwise useless.

Pretty much, although our queen is probably more dangerous. She's a dab hand with shotguns, and if pushed I'm sure she'd head butt someone with that spiky crown she's got. Failing that set phil the greek loose, he's great at causing damage.
