    Damn the Colonel is a much better man than I thought.
    He may be a donkey in his personal life, but he seems at
    least willing to listen to his staff. Not all do.
    Yes Lieutenant for the good of the Empire. Ha Ha

      Most people are like that, to one degree or another.
      Neither 100% perfect nor 100% imperfect.

      Maybe as a Colonel he was, but I’ve noticed that when you put
      a star in a man’s head it kicks brain cells out to make room.
      Same could be said for non-military people as well…

    I should clarify based on the Pierce-Arrow comments earlier.
    The top story is a continuation of the one started in
    http://thegentlewolf.net/comic/tgw-517/.
    It happens on Lamia before the Catian War.
    The car is diesel, maybe that fifth pipe is an air injector
    to clean up the exhaust?

    • Scarsdale

      Or a vent pipe for fumes from the interior, it can’t be an intake,
      those would face forward. If it’s a Lamia design, who knows (but
      you) how it was setup, since it’s not a replica car, I’m sure the
      engine is far more advanced than our 1920-1930s designs. Still, I
      love the look, I’d just hate to drive it through a DQ drive-thru heh.

    Oh, I am such a moron! I thought the guy in the first panel from
    yesterday looked familiar. (loud forehead slap!) Ow, well this is
    the story that he never told the Sgt. then. I am surprised The
    Colonel did this then. He must of gotten grumpier with age,
    or dumber… BIG mistake for any leader.

    HA! What goes around, comes around LT. it could be worse,
    there could be 3 gals after you! Drink plenty of water,
    take deep, slow breaths, and for gawds sake, relax! heheheh…

    Different cultures, different customs.
    Kinda reminds me of Heinlein’s “Glory Road”.

    • Scarsdale
      June 29, 2023, 15:28 | #

      Very true, I made that comparison last year too, took me
      a while to remember the title though. I still love the way
      he decided to go on an adventure just for the hell of it!

    • Scarsdale
      June 29, 2023, 15:30 | #

      Or how they “killed” the first monster they had to fight.
      That HAD to be gross to say the least!

      Ah, “Glory Road”. My favorite of all Mr Anson’s works
      (just ahead of “The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress”).
      “Dum vivimus viviamus”, ” While we live, let us live!”.
      Hell of a name for a sword.

        Yeah I thought so too, my last copy was in paperback, sadly it didn’t
        survive the move to where I am now, damn leaky box-truck roof…
        I had read it and about 12-13 other’s so often the binding would
        break down. I’d read a few chapters before bed, or during my lunch
        beaks at work. I was a natural speed-reader, so I’d miss tiny details,
        like Marise’s hand on Kima’s butt heh.

        i think i have all of R.A.H. i have multiple shelfs in various
        rooms and two different states,. then i have duplicate titles,
        of a few.. IE: Glory Road. i have with me a 65 hard copy,
        and two soft, (64 cover, 67 cover.)

          I didn’t have as many, few I’d take out of the house in hard-cover, but I know
          what you mean! I just about cried when I opened the water-soaked box
          and they were limp and melted together… I only manage to save out of the
          40+ was 3 and those were my wife’s romance novels.

    I think Marise is going to end up as the first recruit if they
    join the Empire. The way she’s talking pretty much confirms it
    in panel 8, reminds me a bit of many Dr. Who companions just
    before they go with him/her.

    Is that Colonel the same guy who, as a General,
    didn’t know how to duel?

    • Scarsdale
      June 29, 2023, 19:55 | #

      Yes, same scar, I had missed it at first too, this is a recap
      of what followed after they pranked the Colonel/General.

    • rob stanley

      duel starts at TGW-463.
      and the colonel / Wilson
      starts at TGW-517..

      heh,, tasty cupcake.!

        Heh, I loved that dress too…
        damn now I have a taste for cupcakes…..

    (sigh….) Ok, I’ll be the Bad Dad perv here…….
    This situation reminds me of the joke about the
    tired traveler, who had been sleeping like a rabbit.
    Rabbit? Yeah, rabbit……jumping in and out of holes
    all night….. Com’on, someone had to go there.
    Ok. ‘Nuff said. A’y’all can fill in your own details.
    And I submit myself to your pun-ishment.

    • Petercat
      June 30, 2023, 02:50 | #

      And I thought the old joke about sleeping like a baby was bad…
      Waking up crying every two hours.

        Yeah I hear that, my oldest had colic real bad for the
        first 4 months, never been so exhausted in my life…
        worst part was, it was my turn to be on call…

    • Scarsdale
      June 30, 2023, 03:32 | #

      Yeah, those two are NOT getting much rest 😉

    Anycubic is having a sale on their 3D printers,
    accessories and materials. Sadly, it ends today:

    This is high-quality stuff.

      Aw damn… I’ve been collecting the stuff to make it safe for me to
      use one, face shield, fume mask, rubber apron, long gloves and a lab
      coat, I’ve got 1/3 of it so far… They tell me it’s pretty likely my kidney
      will grow again after a few years, before the tumor it was the same
      size as my heart. So hopefully it won’t matter when, oh… maybe when
      I’m 70 heh. this is the one I have saved on my list, it’s a combo:

        My experience has been that if you have a choice, dealing with
        the factory is always better than dealing with Amazon.
        I know that with companies like Western Digital and Crucial, if
        you ask their Customer Service for a discount, they will usually
        give you one around 10%, making it cheaper than Amazon.
        Never hurts to ask.

        • Scarsdale
          June 30, 2023, 03:55 | #

          I’m only looking at that one since it comes with the wash/cure unit,
          it’s totally free, on the factory page it’s $200+ but with my luck
          it’ll be gone by time I’m ready. You KNOW I’ll want to try it asap!

          I really like the look of the semi-clear resins, I have an
          idea for a lithograph setup using the different colors I’m
          itching to try. Might be a hot item for new-born mothers.
          FDM just isn’t clear enough for it.

            Try sending that link to their CS and ask for the same deal.

      After our company leaves (hopefully shortly) and after my eyes heal
      (hopefully not too many months from now) I hope to get back into 3D
      modelling and printing with my FDM printer. Right now I cannot get
      into the room without asking in advance. My daughter and grandkids
      have totally made themselves at home. {sigh} Not wishing to start
      anything I just bite my tongue knowing it will end some day.

    One things for sure: the guys back on the ship are going to alternate
    between razzing them and sulking in envy. Not that I’d expect these
    two to ‘kiss and tell’, but I expect the girls to at every opportunity.
    I’m wondering what’s happening with the Pterans now. I don’t think
    the Terrans ever got formal permission for them to land, restock
    ‘reaction mass’ and do repairs. Of course, since they ‘borrowed’
    the radio, that may have taken place off camera.

      They said it was up to the top alpha, since it was so late
      planet-side they were going to meet the next day. I’d say
      it’s a great way to distract the men from having to wait!

    I did have an awful thought, please don’t let this be an elaborate
    trick to trap the men, after a heated night they wake up with 3
    armed men in the rooms pointing their weapons at the men’s faces…
