Well i do not have the time nor am i willing to put up and listen to some hippy liberal English major dush bag who reads the news paper and watches Glenn Beck and thinks he knows something about U.S. foreign policy! Rocket was spot on with what i met by "our way of life"...... Additionally what i men by that is so that American people don't have to live in fear of someone flying planes into buildings or blowing them up with car bombs on U.S. soil. And like i said; that is why civilians do not understand. I will tell you what if you don't like it here than get the fuck out!!! There is a great place in France waiting for you, and I am even willing to pay your way and I mean that. The only condition is that you have to hand over all ID so that you can not come back here and infect this world with your bullshit. I realize that you are entitled to your opinion regardless if i like it or not, but you must be absolutely insane to jump into a conversation (which you added no relevance to the over all topic) and stir a shit pot. I hope that I have made my point or did I make a mistake in grammar?

I second that 100%. Thank you sir!

I am far from brain washed dude. You also need to lean some respect, if you don't have anything constructive to add then stay in your lane

Java jumps into every military thread thinking he knows shit and that he's some well educated historian and shit.

As for woot. Well you're fighting a losing battle trying to get him to not talk shit. This is CC and he loves to stir the pot. Don't take it personally. When I first joined EF I almost got banned cause he pissed me off so bad I said some shit we're not allowed to on here.

Bwhahahaha Semper is a good bro!

I know, right? LOL! Who knew all the SF badasses would congregate here at EF?

My dad wasn't SF, but he lived war for 4 years, every day in the South Pacific. When the time came to get out after the Japs surrendered, he couldn't go fast enough or get far enough away.

War was a lot messier then I guess. We (mom and the kids) didn't know he had nightmares all the time. The stories we heard were about him and his buddies getting into trouble for fighting with some drunken sailors or some other foolishness. He never talked about the bodies he'd seen piled up (both American and Japs), or the buddies that got killed or the Japs he'd shot, or any other "totally cool adrenaline rushing" sort of stuff. He would talk about getting shot at and the food running out and not getting rations for several weeks, sleeping under a parka in a hole filled with muddy water and worse. He was clear that it was very shitty.

He never showed the effect that the horrors of war had on him though. Back then they didn't talk to shrinks when they came home. Hell they didn't talk to anyone about what they had done. They got jobs, got married, had kids, and lived a normal life. I guess they got pretty adrenaline'd out after 4 years non stop. Or maybe they were just weak and helpless?

My dad didn't want any of his kids to go into any branch of the service. That was how bad war was for him. He said when they got back and were lined up and were asked who wanted to re-up...not one of them stepped forward. Maybe they should have waited a few weeks or months to ask them? lol.

Let me also say that I respect those who serve and have served. I am glad and thankful they do/did what they do/did. Thank you guys for your service.

I knew my husband 3 years before he ever told me any of his horror stories...I have a couple of vietnam vet friends that have told me fractions of stories (one was a helicopter pilot..those are some fuckin stories) and you'll notice I don't ever tell my stories here...my civie stories sure...not my mil stories.

The IRR tried sucking the husband back in twice..first time he dodged it by joining the guard for a year. Second time, I saw that fedex truck coming up the driveway and just knew what it was. As soon as I saw the MO address my heart sank...I opened it read the orders and kneeled in the driveway and sobbed because I knew if he went again he'd be lost...if not dead then re-warped in mind and body into something unfamiliar and the person I knew would be dead.

I get nostalgia like any other former service member but always remember its rose colored glasses. Hell I get a little jealous when I see someone in uniform because all I have left are my dog tags and a lousy digi-backpack thats covered in soot.

We both agree we miss the camaraderie and silly shit service members get themselves into when they're kickin back...but thats it.

AAA-fucking-MEN brother! FTR Glenn Beck would not have seconded that guy's opinion. While he may be a little on the crazy side, the difference between GB's views and This idiot's^^^ are like black and white.
