What a depressing situation for those with a sense of honor and duty. So I can certainly see why this man did what he did.<br /><br />By the way William, slight correction. "... good food, pretty women, and booze to ease the mortal fears...". Maybe in Saigon, where I never was, but not up in the bush of Northern I Corps. Seven days of R&R was the only relief.<br /><br />If the 'Liar' wins it will only get worse. And just when, what with China and Russia, we need our good men the most we'll look around and there won't be any.XRayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01845325507655999168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-17447474690196535542016-08-13T16:56:28.732-04:002016-08-13T16:56:28.732-04:00So far as reenlistment goes, all those repeated to...So far as reenlistment goes, all those repeated tours in Afghanistan and the Mideast are bound to take their toll. Horrible climate, no liquor, no women, and constant imminent risk of death. At least in Vietnam there was good food, pretty women, and booze to ease the mortal fears.......For all that, I don't think the military is in anywhere near as bad a shape as it was towards the end in Vietnam. That was the absolute low point for the Ametican military.Williamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07837540030934495651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-31708525425767256842016-08-13T14:59:02.177-04:002016-08-13T14:59:02.177-04:00Alvin York, MOH.

Pissy wants to turn the Army into the Gay Rangers as another way of destroying the country.<br /><br />When you think of all the Lefties who say, "We have the Army on <i>our</i> side now", any time somebody talks revolution, insurrection, secession, or general draining of the Lefty gene pool, you wonder if they really stop to consider the men who made the US Armed Forces formidable would be on the other side, it is, in the immortal words of Daffy Duck, to laugh.<br /><br />I don't doubt it's happening, but I'd bet many are waiting to see what the election brings.edutcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15033144261502435196noreply@blogger.com
