Mail Call, hosted by veteran actor and Marine R.Lee Ermey, is a series that deals with questions that viewers have about the five branches of the United States and World Armed forces.

Omally awoke with a start, something was pressing firmly into his throat and stopping his breath. They looked at each other, dropped the newspaper and fled. The two men did not wait to see what might happen. At night a time for reverie about the crackling campfire, the sweet smell of mossy peat and pine needles. In harmony with the Arcadian Spirits of olden Earth. Birdsong swelling at dawn to fill the ears. Days in sylvan glades watching the sunshine dancing between the leaves and dazzling the eyes. An opportunity to get away from it all and commune with nature. The old nights under canvas, the wind in your hair and fresh air in your lungs. There are many pleasures to be had in camping out. A plainclothes detective and three burly constables leapt from the vehicle and swept into the saloon bar. Driven at high speed, the car came through the red lights at the bottom of Haling Road, roared past them and screeched to a standstill a hundred yards further on, outside the Flying Swan.
