I turned 21 in Vietnam, youngest officer in my Battalion. Promoted to Captain two months later. Strange thing about the military; as a 19 year old 2nd Lt. I was required to join the officers club and as such had all the benefits including drinking. I could also buy at the class 6 store but could not...

In the mountains my patrol had a near lightning strike that knocked us all off of our feet, all I saw was a bright flash that took out my night vision. When I went to get up my left arm might as well have been jello, I walked the rest of the night praying that I would get feeling back in the arm, I ...

I hope it doesn't shock anyone if some of us old fuckers take exception to their claim of being the "best unit of their type"! :roll: And there was a reason that the majority of their original members came from the 173rd Abn LRRP. :mrgreen: From their history page: F/51st LRP was for the ...

I enjoyed it too. I just want to know how he got a marine photographer attached to his unit.

Dana Perino, past White House Press Secretary, just reported on Fox that the announcement at Ft. Bragg was a surprise to the Pentagon. Apparently they did not know about the press conference. If so, could this be the dead end of a career?

Should he be convicted, what are the odds he will receive a presidential pardon? The question is what are the odds that the present administration allows it to conclude during his term?
