I was active duty from Dec 1988 to Apr 2014 Do Stolen Valor GI-Joe wannabes count. Well do you count ,Commie Steve ? He is a punk. Don't waste your time on punks. That punk seems to spend a fair amount of his time stalking me. Not sure why? Maybe his boyfriend kicked him to the curb but I don't swing that way. One thing for certain is he was a punk yesterday, he is a punk today and he will be a punk tomorrow.

You going to threaten my life again you lying POS.

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

Our forefathers did not politely protest the British.They did not vote them out of office, nor did they impeach the king,march on the capitol or ask permission for their rights. ----------------They just shot them. MOLON LABE

I've learned that being in the military and serving your country are not synonymous.

I haven’t served but I have fought as many or more commies as a conservative teacher than most who have served. I have been stabbed, punched, kicked, shot at, the whole enchilada. I would guess that dividend time in Ambler was as rough as fahlluja and I have talked to many who went.

9 in my immediate family, including me. 2 of my 3 neighbors did (LOTS of Navy where I live due to our 2 nuclear power plants in the area).
Just about everyone I talk to on a regular basis outside of work - served in some way.

I lived in San Diego a long time ago. I kept a lot of squid wives happy. I guess that counts.

What's the first thing a Navy wife does in the morning? Gets an Uber ride home. What's the difference between a Navy Wife and a Ferrari? Not everyone has been in a Ferrari.

5 out of 6 in my immediate family served. I enlisted at 18 and retired from the army after 23 years in 05, then went to work as a Dept of Army Civilian until 30DEC. Ft. Leavenworth/Combined Arms Center and the surrounding community is a unique place: https://usacac.army.mil/about-cacCAC is labeled as the "Intellectual Center for the Army" so the majority of the positions on post consist of mid-higher level ranks both uniform and civilian. A large number of the service members retire here, remain in the local area due to jobs on post and the KC/Topeka areas. The majority of the people I know and interact with served, and retired.

BM2 smoked him for 30 minutes for asking and said over and over "I cross oceans, not ponds"

We'd razz the hell out of each other. I'd remind them that they were a 300+ person Navy ship whose sole purpose was the support 8 Coasties doing something none of them were qualified to do.

The Navy, if they wanted to and got the funding to - could be capable in counter narco but it probably would be messy and the .gov likes to send the Navy over the horizon. GF's ex-husband was Coast Guard - he's not super bright. Probably good he spent his time close to shore lol.

Our IT folks likely considered me to be not so bright. I am a fair bit sluggish on the technological uptake.

I work with a lot of veterans because my employer gives strong hiring preference to vets. As far as the guys go, it’s a pretty mixed bag. Just like any other group of people. But I absolutely appreciate what they did.
