:confused:

Do you have confirmation that he has departed these realms?
 
I think this is bs...
 
I assume an Elite fitness members passes away here and there as their are almost 100,000 members. How would one confirm an internet death? (unless one knew of the member in real life terms) I guess this is the case with message boards

Brandy the singer justed killed someone. I heard she isnt sorry at all she just doesnt want to go to jail or be sued. (The woman who died had to little kids as well)

i don't think he's referring to an actual death, just lamenting tiger88's disappearance from EF



Ah. I assume over the years here at Elite fitness their have been several members who have passed away. Kind of wierd when you think about someone passing and his or her friends on the internet are wondering where they are.
 
tiger88 was one of my favorite posters here of all time.
 
88 refers to the 88mm gun
the
L56 refers to how many gun barrel sizes make up the length of the gun
the 88L56 was a brut force gun
the Panthers were equipped with a 70L71
sure 70mm is smaller than 88mm
but the 70L71 was a more accurate gun
70mm stretched out 71 times
a longer gun barrel providing both greater accuracy and velocity of the fired shell
the longer the fired shell remains in the actual barrel the greater the force channeled into launching the shell and directing it's towards target
so the 88mmL56 wasn't as good as the 70mmL71
often bigger isn't better
 
the Germans "birthed" that 88mm gun as an anti-aircraft weapon
but quickly learned in the campaign against France that thier tanks were out-classed(the french had better tanks)
but they discovered their 88mm anti-aircraft guns made mince meat of enemy armor
problem being you can't fight mobile combat running around trying to set up an 88
Rommel did well in africa setting up his 88s and drawing the British into the "killing zone"
and when the German's invaded the soviet union in 1941 they were faced with T-34s and KVs that clearly out-classed the armor in their inventory
you just can't drive an 88 up to the point of contact as the German's engaged in blitzkrieg mobile warfare
what they did was eventually put that 88mm gun in a tank
and thus the Tiger
and the Panther with the later better 70mmL71 came 6 months later
the war was over for them by then
the German's scored their greatest victories with cheesy armor
they just did it

Rommel. poor fellow had to take the pill or his family would be killed. I guess his kid was the mayor in a town in Germany. City of M.Benz
