The argument started when I said it was not particularly offensive, and the article was making a big deal about nothing.

A few people started arguing with me, and then when it was clear they had lost, suddenly decided to agree with me that it was not offensive after all, and in fact the only thing notable was that Jarheads are none too bright. Cool, I am glad after 20 pages most people agree with what I said on page 2.

If someone wanted to "argue" with me, by definition they have to take a position that disputes mine. My first post was not an argument with anyone in the thread, nor was it addressed to any particular poster, nor did it quote any particular poster. It was simply an observation on the article, like most of the posts that came before it.

God Damn, you are dense.

What I love about Berkut is how he'll debate a point round the moons of Nibia and round the Antares Maelstrom and round Perdition's flames before he gives it up.

What ever.  If he wants to think he won, I guess we should let him.  If a man wants to regard himself a war gamer and then claim he can't identify Sieg runes, well I think we know what to think of him.

That's stupid Raz.  A war gamer who plays Napoleonic scenarios or one who specializes in the Spanish Civil War might not.

What the fuck is with the lines after every post? Annoying as fuck.  ANnoying as this whole thread has become.

Lines?

In TOAW if you create a unit with the word "SS" in it, the game immediately translates that into Sig runes.  I remember one scenario the developer tried to make a submarine unit.  I was a bit dismayed to find my that Submarines had an allegiance to Hitler.

The Nazis used lines, you know.

Lines?

Where we're going, we don't need lines.

What would R. Lee Ermy say?

He was a POG. He was not an infantryman, never deployed as an infantryman, and his only call to glory was to serve as a Drill Sergeant safely at state-side.
He wasn't even a Gunery Sergeant (E-7). He left the Marine Corp as an Staff Sergeant (E-6) and was promoted to E-7 much later, as an honorific from the Corp for his contribution as an actor for a good image for the Marine Corp.

So Seigy, would you be happy to serve in a scout sniper unit that had that flag as an unofficial banner ?

Probably not.
Still, I does not come to my mind as nazism unless plainly stated as such by members of that unit.

Can you produce the threads in which Berkut stated he had played TOAW?
