Is our military as mighty as it once was?

Pagans DON'T worship Satan.

True. They don't.

 

[Gracie]

Only comment I will make about you two gentlemen is....I think, and its just my humble opinion, you both are too much alike and don't like it, so you bicker. If you both would lay shit aside, I think you both would become semi friends with huge differences but still be very much alike in other forms of personality, belief, etc but stubbornness runs in both of ya.

Anyway....carry on.

True. They don't.

You might wanna try to enlighten Mudwhistle, because he's convinced that Pagans worship Satan, and there appears to be zero chance of convincing him otherwise.

He's trying to get at my goat, and it's pissing him off royally that I'm not rising to the bait, instead choosing to respond to him in a calm way. That seems to piss him off even more, and his rantings get a bit more frantic with each post.

Kinda fun to watch, actually.

 

[mudwhistle]

Like I said...............it's fun as hell to watch you spool.

I actually know what a Pagan is. Had several friends of mine over the years who actually were Pagan, which is how I know they aren't Satan worshippers. Had the same mistaken idea as what you did when I met my first one, and they corrected me, as well as taught me a great deal what they believe. I'm guessing that you don't know much about what they practice at the Ft. Campbell Pagan center either, as you keep saying that they worship Satan.

It's not an excuse as to why I couldn't be a SEAL. They asked who was interested when I was in A school, and set up initial screenings. That's where I was told my vision was too poor and I would never be accepted because of that. Didn't stop me from going for a lot of other things in the Navy that I was qualified for, and I managed to qualify for most of them. One that I was disappointed in not getting (because they didn't have enough billets) was the Antarctic Winter Over program. Yeah, I can admit to things I wanted to do but for whatever reason didn't get. Wanted to be a CAAC Counselor, and was not only qualified, but had the recommendation of the base CO, base CMC, my OIC and both of the directors of the base CAAC. Detailer wasn't able to release me to that program as I was the only E-6 on the entire East Coast she had available for sea duty for the next 6 months, so that is when I was offered an independent duty billet with MSC, and also sent to school to be qualified as a DAPA, because of the quals I already had.

Nope, not hiding behind a keyboard, because you said that you would love to meet me (insinuating that you'd like to try to kick my ass) and I told you that the next time you were in the Columbia SC area, send me a PM, and I'd be willing to come meet you. Not scared of you in the least. Very few people in this world have ever managed to intimidate me, and a keyboard commando such as yourself ain't gonna be one of them.

Reason I didn't ask you about an ODA? Probably because you sounded like you were accusing me of claiming to be one (and I said I never claimed to be one as you had insinuated in your post), and didn't see much of a reason to ask you about them. Sorry that your feelings were hurt when I didn't ask, but, you'll get over it. If that makes me a jerk in your eyes for not asking, then go ahead and think what you want, it's a free country.

Like I said, it's really fun to watch pompous asses like yourself spool up and lose their shit when I'm trying to be civil in discussions with you, but, I've seen others do it as well, so it doesn't really faze me even in the slightest.

Keep it up, you're kinda entertaining right now, but eventually, you're gonna get boring.

How can you be on an ODA if you're a squid?

Dude....learn how to read.

Look...you're the one that started in on me...not the other way around.
The only pompous ass is you.
You spend so much time telling fake war stories that it's a bit ridiculous.

And in the future....when somebody asks you a question they don't need to hear your life story.....which seems to be a habit with you. Clearly your favorite subject is yourself.

Again....for the learning impaired....I don't give a shit if you know a Pagan or have been in a circle-jerk with a Pagan.
That's not relevant to the discussion as I have repeatedly laid out.
They practice Satanic rituals there.....I'd don't give a shit if it harelips every cannibal in the Congo.

Gracie....that little shit couldn't hold my jockstrap.
He's your typical wannabe and never-was.
And because of that he likes trashing somebody else's accomplishments.
Usually when I win an argument with him he disappears completely...never admitting he got his ass handed to him. That way he never has to admit he lost.
It's easy to see why he's a Democrat. Over inflated ego and a narcissistic personality disorder.

The truth is in the military there are those who excel in the most difficult MOS's and those who sit back in their air-conditioned offices talking shit about them out of jealousy. Professional jealousy is a constant problem in the military.

He says they wouldn't let him be a warrior because of his physical limitations.
You have to not only be smart enough, but you also have to be a stud.
That's why all he can do is flap his big mouth.

 

[ABikerSailor]

And yes.....a Pagan ritual celebrates Satan. They just call it Pagan and not Satan to keep people from being wrapped around the axle about it.

Again....for the learning impaired....I don't give a shit if you know a Pagan or have been in a circle-jerk with a Pagan.

In the posts above, you said that Pagans celebrate or that they practice Satanic rituals.

Again....I didn't say Pagans worship Satan. Fuck nuts.

Celebration of Satan, or practicing Satanic rituals is worship. Damn..............how stupid can you really be? I thought that the ASVAB requirements to be a Green Beret would be higher than what you have displayed on these boards, because I was under the impression that Green Berets were supposed to be smart.

Our Military is more powerful than the next 11 nations combined

View attachment 678493

We spend 41 cents of every military dollar spent on earth

And we spend those 41 cents telling white soldiers and sailors that they are privileged and need to quit trying to act so much like leaders. We spend a good bit of that 41 cents designing skirts and women's blouses to fit a man's build and men's size 13 women's style shoes.

Yep, and UNREP (for you non Navy types, that means Underway Replenishment, where a cargo ship meets another vessel out at sea and resupplies them) figures prominently into that, and the US Navy is the best there is when it comes to that, even if civilian MSC vessels now carry the brunt of doing the job, the procedures and how to do it safely were written by the U.S. Navy.

The Chinese don't have the same problems for replenishing ships in their home waters that we would have replenishing ships across an ocean. And I served 10 years and have dozens of UNREPs under my belt.

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

Comparing us vs the rest of the major powers....do we still have the lead in "mighty"? Some years back, yes. I'd believe so. Now? Not so sure. What are your thoughts?

Semper Fiddlesticks

Not since Billy Jo Clinton ordered the Marines to stop wearing dress blues and start wearing blue dresses.

Are you still going on about this. I moved on. Grow the fuck up.

FYI, ASVAB requirements for being a Special Forces candidate are pretty much the same as Officer Candidate School.

BTW, When did you get the impression that nobody worships Satan? Are you actually going to make this claim?
The list is pretty long when comes to known Satan worshipers.

We did have the most powerful military that the world had ever seen. Then the purges started. The mandatory vaccine got rid of tens of thousands. Those suspected of white rage got rid of many many more. Anyone not embracing trans and gay went out. Then the changes in training. Physical fitness is too hard. It went. No more war college or team work training. Critical race theory and gender identity are more important than shooting. The military is now taught social emotional learning.

We did have the most powerful military the world had ever seen. So did Rome, until it didn't any more.

Imprimatur Ut Imperemus

Rome quit drafting Patrician youth. After that class-privilege tyranny, the plebeian army had nothing to fight for. We are under the same brainwashing about who is valuable and who is expendable.

 

[mudwhistle]

I thought all naval personnel were trained as firefighters since World War Two? And it is not "CMA" (Congressional Medal of Honor) anyway isn't it? But simply "Medal of Honor"

Everyone in the Navy gets limited firefighting training....but most of the training is during Damage Control drills.

None of them could be a scene leader because you have to go thru scene leader training to be able to do the job. It's pretty extensive.
I was a Damage Control specialist and went to a couple of firefighting schools while I was in the Navy.

It's rare that anyone other than a shipboard firefighter actually fights a fire or a flood at sea, which I have. They like to have everyone able to hold a hose in case the ship takes damage during an attack.

I was on the USS Kitty Hawks Firefighting team for several years, and a qualified scene leader. I also was a qualified trainer. He was one of the guys I would be training.

Bikersailor thinks that if he saw it on TV he's an expert. He's a big talker and he doesn't know his shit.

Replenishing ships away from a countries home waters is where force projection across the globe comes in, and sorry, but China doesn't have the ability to project much force further than their home waters and where they built their islands.

The US on the other hand? We can do it anywhere, even if we're not in our home waters.

There you go again, trying to twist crap to fit the bullshit claims that you made, but in doing so, you only make yourself look like even more of a fool. I didn't say that nobody worships Satan, I told you that you were incorrect when you stated that Pagans worship Satan. Nope, Pagans DON'T worship Satan as you have claimed further up the thread. But, keep on with your ignorance if that is what helps you sleep at night.

If I didn't know my shit, then why did the Navy see fit to put me on independent duty? Not once, but TWICE, and they were back to back tours. But, keep on with the sniping and bullshit if that's what suits you. Is it because you have such a low self esteem that you have a pathological need to try to tear down others? Sorry........won't work on me as like I said, my record speaks for itself, and I know what I've done. It's really funny to hear you say you know what I did and who I am, when you wouldn't know me from Adam if I was walking down the street. All you really know about me is what I've said here, which you filter through your own prejudices and preconceived notions. But, if it helps you sleep at night to think what you do, carry on, makes no difference to me.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

I thought the term KNOTS was only used for ship speed? yes? no?

Nope. Anything that measures distance in nautical miles. Ships, planes, winds over the ocean, etc.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Nope aircraft speeds are sometimes measured in knots as well. Jet speed can also be measures in percentage of mach.

Sorry, that is incorrect.

A Mach number is the ratio of an object’s speed in a given medium to the speed of sound in that medium. Mach 1, then, is the speed of sound, around 761 mph at sea level on a standard day.
