I Served 25 Years in the Service - And this Asshole is Doing What?????

[ogibillm]

I don't want to know you. You strike me as a non-serving *****, attempting to pose as a veteran.

And you strike me as a net tough guy posing as a combat vet.

The only combat experience I have was spending a year in Beirut, not allowed to carry a weapon, getting sniped at 24/7. Got worse at night. The Marines weren't even allowed to chamber bullets for Christ sake. Then those ******* camel jockey cowards blew up the barracks. That was Oct. 83.
Several years later, I was also aboard USS Iowa on April 19, 1989 when Turret 2 exploded and we lost 47 shipmates.

So no, never fought in combat.

Where did you serve, asswipe - in the Jungles of Nam? If so, I'd like to ask you a couple questions about that tour, again. Maybe this time I will get an answer.

and you have the nerve to decry reservists?

Nam, Cambodia and Laos.

Got a few scars.

83? that was under Reagan and could not even chamber a round?

have i ever claimed to be a veteran?

No need to.
It's obvious.

obvious what? that i haven't served in the military? should be, i admit to lacking knowledge and have never claimed to have served. i've also never 'posed' or attempted to pose as a veteran.

so yes, there was no need for me to ever claim to be a veteran.

Not in the Navy, when deployed we work usually 12 hr shifts, when in port we are on 3 section duty. When at at home port we are working to get the ship ready for deployment and in training.

12 hour shifts are starting to become the norm across the board in the Military because of the low manning, believe it or not Recruiters work some real long fuckin hours, especially the Army ones.

I hope what happens with these Obama military cuts is this - all the good people will leave the military. Then the draft will have to be reinstated to sustain all these wars he has us involved in. FINALLY - some of these "Keyboard Commandos" will get their wish to serve their country.

To be honest it scares to me to think of some of these clowns running around in a Military uniform.

I was off the coast of Beirut 82-83, was there when the marine barracks got blown up. Then we had to escort the PLO ***** out of there so the Isrealis couldnt blow them to hell and back. Fucked up situation.

That whole situation in Lebanon was fucked up, letting our troops sit there with rifles with no bullets was ******* beyond retarded.

It was indeed. We had a base at the airport - those fuckers would shoot at us from the hills every night

I have to ask why the **** did we not let our boys carry loaded weapons in a war zone?

The Druse Militia? We shelled those fuckers, USS Bowen

What's the black guy doing with a stick?

Frightening chickenshits to death.

Is that what you called it when White guys with a stick did the same thing in Mississippi in the sixties? Voter intimidation was wrong in Philadelphia, MS in 1965, and just as damn wrong in Philadelphia PA in 2008.

Dude, when I went to Kirkuk they gave us all M-16's to take with us and when we got there they made us turn them in to be locked up. We didn't see them again til it was time to go.

 

[Dante]

You're a ******* douche bag

VFW? How's that "Vietnam Era" shit going? all the vets who never saw combat during the end of 'nam, got vets groups to make a name change so it would sound like all vets were war heroes.

Served 1979-2002, screw you.

You joined. For benefits and economic opportunities.


1979: President Jimmy Carter: President Carter proposed to Congress today a pay increase of 7 percent affecting 3.5 million military and civilian employees. The President's proposal would raise the pay of 1.4 million Federal civilian workers and 2.1 million members of the armed services.

(F)art; Probably because they were afraid you numb-nuts would shoot yourself or your buddy.

When I deployed I carried a full combat load plus frags and a Berretta everywhere.

But they also trained me how to use them well.

No shit? I thought in Iraq you had to have a weapon with you at all times?

Two reasons -

Politics and the ******* U.N.
