1916 -
9 hours, 1200 artillary units and 1,000,000 shells along a 25 mile front.
3 army corps, also utilizing flamethrowers, continued the assault.
Casualties (after many months of battle): 328,000 for attackers; 348,000 for defenders.

This is the U.S. tax season. What is the relationship between Doberman Pinschers and taxes?

Another reason not to trust a tax man. Herr Louis Dobermann, tax collector was getting tired of getting seven shades beaten out of him during his rounds, so he set out to "design" a dog (using, Rottweiler, German Pinscher, Great Dane, Manchester Terrier and German Short Haired Pointer) to scare said seven shades out of any wood be non paying tax man hater.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
