When I give a technical presentation and the audio setup person needs to dial in the settings, I repeat "Checkmate King II to White Rook, over" a few times. There's always at least a dozen or so individuals that perk right up. Their big COMBAT fans too! With that said, this is White Rook ........ out.  |
Awesome call name. Wow, I was wondering about that name. Combat! often came to mind when I saw it. I belong to a group of people that write Combat! fan fiction. We've also been voting for it on the Richlabonte tv site for fav show. Pineneedles I think asked if it is still on. The American Life cable channel carries it I think around 7:00 PM. It is also out on DVD all 5 seasons.
