The Department of the Army was recently commissioned to do a study and come up with potential proposal's to augment their armament and vehicular shortfalls if the funding the Army needed was voted down by the Democratic Congress.....................

Now that's the perfect grocery getter for Grumpy.
Get a little exercise, a basket for the bagels, and someone watching the 6.

Due to cutbacks, Challenger 2 and all other "AFVs'" withdrawn from service.
Latest in British Army defences ordered at Billions of pounds from "Thinktank" Czar.
Chancellor delighted and puts taxes up as defense capabilities can now be used elsewhere!
Last two British soldiers left "Non - Operational" in UK demonstrate new "state of the art" Home Defence equipment.
Due to be deployed in defense of British troops world wide asap...
Edit: Project now cancelled.
Last British soldiers/ airmen / sailors gave up in disgust so item not required. Chancellor crows in triumph as projected costs are met and raises taxes to help the disbanded British Forces emigrate.

To help the British Army reduce its carbon footprint, the Treasury is now scouring e-Bay for old Raleigh Choppers.....
UPDATE - Accenture are now being paid several billion to source the Raleigh Choppers, but still from e-Bay
