Talk:1st Battalion, 6th Field Artillery Regiment (United States)

message: I left the unit in 2000 so I am not up on 1-6's service in Iraq. I hope that someome who may be takes the time to add it to my contribution. Thanks, Pat Stanton
I was in 1-6 from '02 to '05. B Btry deployed to Macedonia, at Camp Able Sentry, in 2002 and helped in shutting that camp down. A few of us from B Btry also deployed, at the same time, to Camp Montieth as a suppliment to our FiSTers assigned to 2-2 Inf. B Btry also was sent to Normandy, France, in 2002 to serve as the honor guard and salute battery for Presidents Bush and Chirac at the Memorial Day ceremony at Normandy Cemetary. We were scheduled to go into Iraq, at the invasion, from Turkey, although that never happened, and instead 1-6 deployed from 2004-05 and was stationed at Baqubah, NE of Baghdad, where we suffered 4 or 5 KIA (sorry,I can't remember how many, but I'll check and get back) I can't speak much for the unit's actions in Iraq, I was kept on Rear-D because of a medical condition that led to my discharge which was BS, but nothing I can do about it now). The unit cased it's colors in2005 or 2006 when the 1st ID prepared to return CONUS, but that was after I left. Robert Brown B Btry/HHB, 1-6 FA --Milwaukee rdb 03:53, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Datsun Truck

message: I owned a PL521, registered as a '70 though the serial number and body style (small side marker lights like the early 510's) pointed it to being manufactured in '69. This truck had the standard J13. Chiltons agrees with this and only mentions the J15 as being used in some overseas 720's. If I can find my Chilton manual I'll update the article but if someone else has the Chilton manual to look up page numbers for citation it would be good to update the page.
I've also heard rumours of L13 motors also being used in some of the trucks. Unluckily no citationsDryeo (talk) 07:42, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Proposed split

message: I wonder if anyone familiar with Datsun/Nissan diesel trucks can identify exactly what badges were used to identify diesel models sold from 1982 to 1985. On the 1982 and early 1983 Datsuns, it was merely just the word DIESEL placed below the DATSUN lettering on the tailgate (lower right corner of tailgate on standard cab models; lower left corner of tailgate on King Cab models). But on the Nissan models from 1983-1/2 to 1985, the diesel engine could be identified by the use of a small "DIESEL" badge (similar to the 1983-85 Nissan Sentra) placed on the front fenders just below the NISSAN badge, but no longer on the tailgate.
If anyone else can clarify these words, please do not hesitate to reply.

thread_title: Fatal Accident

message: The official site gives "height 195 feet, length 210 feet, angle 45 degrees" which is inconsistent -- if the height is 195 feet at 45 degrees, the length is 275 feet. Or, if the length is 210 feet (more likely), then the height is only 148 feet.
A look at contour maps confirms this -- the Chateau Frontenac sits on the 60m contour line.  The streets by the river have several benchmarks at around 8 meters, which gives a total from the lowest street to the Frontenac of 52 meters.  Since the ends of the funicular are well above and below that, it cannot be 59 meters high. . . Jim - Jameslwoodward (talk to me • contribs)  14:53, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

Today, an IP editor re-added the section. I think the re-addition is coincidental since the text is substantially different than what was removed in January. I removed the subsection but was reverted.
