October 26, 1983 Afternoon As A Company moved past the burning buildings and dead bodies, ammunition cooked off like popcorn popping. As they passed by the Cuban bodies the paratroopers shot them several times to make sure they were dead. Due to this every body had multiple wounds. Inside the buildi...

October 26th Morning… Our Battalion commander, “Mad Jack” Hamilton decided to attack the compound in the morning. This was the days before night vision devices for every man, so we didn’t own the night like we do now. B Company was to attack the Cuban compound, while my company… A Company… was to at...

Last night I went to the memorial at ST George University. Talked to the brothers of Mark Yamane. I also sat with the widow of CPT Ritz. I had to tell her what happened that day. No one ever told her. Seriously?? :shock: As I walked from the airfield to Grand Anse, following the same route I took be...

I'm wondering if Magic Man even knows about this. It looks like it was cut and pasted from his old site "Dispatches from the Magic Kingdom"

This is only a test. If it was real, it would be killing humans. Go back to watching Honey boo boo and twerping.

I just finished walking from Point Salines airfield, over the ridge, through the Cuban compound, up over the hill behind it and across Mourne Rouge ridge. I then came down onto Grand Anse beach.

Could you move this to the Mosh Pit and out of the Mojo.

This is for everyone, not just Rangers. They need to know what happened before them.

I am now sitting in the Mount Cinnamon Resort, overlooking Grand Anse beach... the one where the Ranger helicopter went down due to hitting a palm tree. Fantastic view. I met a couple of Rangers who were there that day. Broland and Donaldson from 1st Ranger Battalion. 30 years ago today.... On the n...

Sitting in Miami... waiting to board the plane to Grenada. So... 30 years ago this week… On October 15th our battalion, the 2nd / 325th Infantry assumed DRF-1 (Division Readiness Force 1). Rumor had it that we would be going to Seneca, NY to pull security on a nuke site that was going to have some “...

Well, I got my check today. Well according cbs, cnn, and other sources us Vets may not be receiving anything next month...... OK, going out on a limb here... Obama is incredibly vindictive and will punish all those who dare stand against him with the full force of his power 'We're going to punish o...

The Senate has to ratify any treaties. Yes, but these shitbags know that time is on their side. Once a treaty is signed, it never has an expiration date. Sometime in the future there will be a Senate that has a huge majority of democrats and they will ratify this thing. Once that happens the idea o...

File this story under "duh" Anyone who owns a farm can tell you that any weather predictions from a politician is bullshit. Work in the field from day to day and you can tell exactly what the weather is doing. You can also tell folks that you've seen it before, everything comes around in c...
