Re: American Legion

Unfortunately, much depends upon the local posts. In my location the Legion is a collection of knuckleheads I cannot abide. I joined the VFW several years ago when it was populated by a few good men and a lot of assorted knuckleheads. The good ones drifted away and the knuckleheads, led by a Korean ...

Re: Steven's introduction

Your sentence composition and grammar need work. After reading your rambling essay, I still don't know if you have made a decision. Do you really want to enlist? Do you really want to be a Ranger? If you really want to be a Ranger, you are in the right place. However, you must want it more than anyt...

Re: Hasan Sentenced To Death

Never mind - I just read the article, answered my question.

Lethal injection is too easy - IMHO he should be shot

Re: I see all you lurkers!

Yeah, I lurk for opportunities to throw in a snide comment here and there, plus I watch to see who else might show up.

(sigh) 13-70, as if nobody knew that already.

Re: Proof Reading Needed for Headline Writers

:lol: I love reading those. Years ago I read one about striking miners rioting somewhere in western US - "Governor's Demands Met; Three Miners Shot" Guess that'll teach those pesky strikers. I also like reading news stories about fights and scuffles where they state how many people were hu...

Re: Look at Teaching

As the father of a daughter who went through Special Ed, I have nothing but praise and admiration for those who choose to work with Special Ed youth. Some of those who helped my daughter were nothing short of saints when I observed them doing their work. Today my daughter is in an adult group home a...

Re: Introduction: Brian

Your ambition is admirable and you are fortunate to have obtained an Option 40. Do not waste it. Read, read, read, all the threads you can see here, post little, and drive yourself physically like you never have before. Try running and working out in adverse weather conditions to see how it feels, b...

You addressed me as "Ranger advisor Lefty".

I have a small exercise for you - what does that title mean?

Re: Introduction Scottie

I respect your ambition to serve, BUT....you have touched on one of my nerve points. By your own admission, you have shunned responsibility in a large way. IMO, people who avoid responsibility are beneath contempt. A US citizen has rights that a great many responsible people have fought and died for...

Re: Poser in the News

I'll tell you what, I haven't been in Vietnam in 48 years and I can close my eyes and see a movie of nearly every Mission I was on...I can smell the stench of the jungle...I can feel the heat and humidity. Just had the same conversation with HH6 last nite - I clearly remember what I saw and did and...
