Thank you. Just to set the record straight, I am only in one of those pictures, being the cameraman in the others. But they do provide a good general picture of the kinds of fun I and a bunch of other guys had serving our country and protecting Europe from the Communist Menace! It worked!

Yes, and thank you all for your service.

Nice Avatar FlyingDog, any story to go with it?

Take_a_knee,
You've talked about "BT/DT" damned near everywhere for a long time. Serious question/request: how about some pics? You have to have some really cool images from all over, so how about sharing some? oh goody another callout post, lets seem of yours? Unless you got more chins than a chinese phone book. WTF is that supposed to mean? Not a call out post at all. The dude talks about being in a schit-ton of places. I, for one, would like to see the travel pics. There's no flame intended, nor any slight. As for the rest of your post, I haven't a clue as to what the Hell you're trying to say. Yeah, it's a callout post, whether you think or say so or not. The man doesn't want to post pics. So what? Believe him or don't believe him. It's your choice. Instead of badgering folks to post pics or "prove" they are what they say they are when it doesn't really matter, why not post up some entertaining pics of your own? Just a thought. No, it wasn't. I didn't know that 1) he didn't have the pics in a format to post, or 2) that he thought so little of here that he wouldn't in the first place. It was a curiosity about strange lands and strange times; nothing more, nothing less.

Roger. No harm, foul, or insult intended.
Some of the coolest threads on this site are the ones of the times and travels of guys going all over Creation, normally into or around "the schit", living to tell about it and showing the pics. The various 'Nam threads, guys on deployment in the ME, Coasties doing Coastie things...

It was a curiosity about strange lands and strange times; nothing more, nothing less. It's also an ongoing insult directed towards him by people who call him a liar. Given that I think he responded very admirably towards you.

Jim, great pics. I guess like TAK, I've always been piss poor about taking pics. Wish I hadn't been for so long.. Very much enjoy some of the pics people here share tho.. Here's myself, son, and niece cruising the bay...not that anybody asked  ![[Linked Image]](http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q655/certifiable1/FCB6F6C2-C78A-4D9D-8DDE-FC57E424B5BD_zpsswrplm9x.jpg)
She never made it past the bedroom door, what was she aiming for...?

They are all classified. May be redacted.  In the midst of actually doing things taking selfies to post on 24HourFacebook might just take a back seat. When kids enter the picture it�s a different story as you want to preserve those memories and kids don�t stay kids for long. But an adult male taking lone pictures of himself all the time is a tad gay.

Well, I for one am damned proud of my military adventures. I have dined al fresco in some of the finest garbage dumps in Germany. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/USArmy.jpg) Shat in the prettiest woods in Bavaria. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/Woods_dump.jpg) Managed to bog down some of the most un-bog-downable all terrain vehicles in the world. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/GammaGoat0001.jpg) Provided heavy artillery support with the finest high tech weapons imaginable. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/11Charlies.jpg) And the best of all, enjoyed the sophisticated camaraderie of the most genteel, well educated young men America has to offer. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/Race_Relations.jpg) Infantry, Queen of Battle! (although somehow on this website, saying you're queen of anything might not be the best idea.....) Thank you for the pictures. But most of all, thank "You". You are one of the many who are the reason I and my family are here today, and enjoy the life we do Lynn

Nope, but you sure post a lot of your selfies here. And now I'm beginning to suspect I know why you keep calling for men to post pictures of themselves for you to look at.

I'm just glad Take_a_knee never got good with the camera, I hear he is one ugly sumbitch.

With a GT score of 147, most likely not. What was yours when you served? Oh but of course it was...So you get called on your BS and respond with yet another unsubstantiated claim. Not only will you not back any of the claims you have made, but I'm betting you cant even back up that you have served.

Call-out threads are ridiculous. Especially when they get to the point of questioning a guy about whether he served or not.

He called me a liar and I challenged his azz to a 2K bet that I could/can produce DD-214's and diplomas from every military school I've ever attended. He backed down. You wanna play? I really don't want your money a couple of "Gibson special" handguns, that I can resell here cheap, will suffice.

i have nothing against you, but if you scored 147 what can be so hard about posting a pic. it would get a lot of guys off your back and give you some credibility.
