Never heard of it, Richard
Back when, all our Boy Scout leaders, and several teachers were WW 2 Veterans.

LOL, OK, tuff guy, you going to make death treats against me like you buddy the Stolen Valor lying POS.
I have quite a few cousins that served in Viet Nam.
My uncles that served in WWII have all passed now. Two of them were Marines in the Pacific and had a real rough go of it.
All who served are deserving of our respect for sure.

I was in the USARMY for 6 years, and not a day goes by that I dont think about some of the people that I knew. Wherever they are at I wish them all well.
1978-1982 U.S. Navy. Nothing special except The Iranian Hostage Crisis.

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.

See my post above yours. He was a punk yesterday, he is a punk today and he will ne a punk tomorrow. It really is that simple.
I've learned that being in the military and serving your country are not synonymous.
Wonder what percentage of our members are ex military, how it compares to the national average. USN 1960-1964 aviation electronics mate.
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.

If it weren't for Coasties, there wouldn't be any pretty Navy babies.
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.

3rd week of basic training - some poor guy asked Boats if the Coast Guard got paid the same as the Navy. BM2 smoked him for 30 minutes for asking and said over and over "I cross oceans, not ponds"

I was on a deployable counter-narcotics team that did Coast Guard boardings off of Navy ships. 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.

lololol. Yeah, I have worked with some not so bright ones. 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.
Not enough action for Wabs down in the “Military” forum:
US Army 78-81 95B1P. AZNG 82-90 13E3.
It amazes me that not only on this post, but like the three others just like it, that the ones that stubbed their toe either leaving their house, or going into the recruiting office and therefore couldn't go, have to chime in on a veterans post.

Actually, it's more of a Posse Comitatus Act thing that prevents active military from performing law enforcement duties. Since the Coast Guard is a subset of the Dept. of Homeland Security, not Dept. of Defense it's their bailiwick because they have an exemption.
Same thing with National Guard, unless they're federalized.

When were you at McClellan?
I was an enlisted MP from 78-81 went through basic and AIT SEP-DEC.
Got out in 81, went to school in 82, ran out of money and the ROTC guys got me. Spent 87-05 as an FA officer.
My boy is in now.

Benning for jump school?
Did mine at Bragg after advance camp.
I went from McClellan to FT. Eustis, then to 2ID Camp Casey, then back to Ft. Belvoir to ETS.

Yes, Jump School at Benning, then I was assigned to the 82nd MP Co at Bragg.
Enlisted in November 86. Basic/AIT in the summer of '87 at Ft. McClellan. Made E6 in 10. Went inactive a few years while in school then got a degree. The Army National Guard didn't k own what to do with me so they made me an officer. After taking a 9 year break (long story there) I got back in. Hope yo be pinning on O5 soon.
A Salute of respect to ALL of my brothers who served our nation... we average one out of every 100 people.
Grew up in a military household as a dependent also. StepDad passed this pass November just before his 93rd birthday.
He served 10 years Marine Corps, and 16 years Air Force as a pilot. Then served two years Hawaii National Guard and then 24 years in the State Dept, serving as the US representative to SEATO with 55 counterparts from other member nations.
many other Uncles served during WW2 and Korea, some made careers of it. 3 died in service to their country in WW 2.
Same with the wife's family also. Great Granddad's served in WW 1 also, to include their brothers.
Me, Sept 75 to Dec 31, 82.
I got as far as MEPS, Oakland, CA., in October 1986.
Budget cuts (1986 Gramm Rudman Deficit Reduction Act) ended my career before it even started.

My Big Brother was a Marine.
U.S. ARMY. 1977-80, Ft. Benning Ga.
I was in the Navy back in the '60s... Quite a few of my friends I yak to at coffee in the local cafe are vets; some during the same time I was in.. Lots of 'em in this area..

That must have been sucking cock .
USAF 1956-1960. Grandfather served as Army officer in WW I and II. Have a photo of him as a 50-something captain. His service stripes tell the story.
