It has its ups and downs. Turfing through Iraq at 50ft AGL at 150 knots nothing else compares.

the word is dignity.
however, knowing what some 155mm HE will do to
people... i never really agreed with that statement.

 

[Teejay13]

Hemlock, great idea!

Nice to see there's a couple of us hanging around the site.

I was a cavscout in the USARMY for 5 years and spent 15 months in the stan with BTRP, 3/71 cav, 3rdBDE, 10th Mountain. I'm still kicking myself for not bringing back seeds but I didn't think I was getting out for a while so I passed.

 

[kizphilly]

i was never in the service but i would like to thank all of you who did serve
my father who passed away in October he served in the marines he fought in Vietnam

Ahh there nothing like a good pink mist in the morning.


Much respect to your father.

 

[tinyTURTLE]

so few 'regular' people understand us.

well. i heard it at MCRD before i ever saw the pacific.

 

[Cyproz]

i do respect you guys for going and fighting when called on, but i just couldnt fight for a bunch of morons running the country. But i still thank you guys for doing it, cause if u didnt no one would.

forgot to ask if anyone was a sniper, i think snipers are the coolest in the armed forces. They are like ninjas that kill from 1.5 miles away lol

 

[akgrown]
