Since when is a person entitled to a certian wage? Seems to me if you want to do better than Wally World wages you improve your education and get a better job. Or move to an area where better jobs are available. I have had people who worked for me, for lack of a better term, who told me that...

There will be plenty of bad guys to bop, they will just speak the same langauge as you. Or at least sort of. It will be a target rich area. LOL, good luck to us all. Layoutshooter

One of my favorite "Drinkin Movies" !!! Only it will come from within here, most likely will elect the bum to make the final move to bring the U.S. to a true "State of Enlightenment" Not enough drive-ins for the Re-education camps, maybe the "Silver Dome" in Pontiac MI, it has little use now...

By the way, that goes for any "Vet" even marines!!! LOl Just kidding. Any one else for that matter, I even talk to "Panther" drivers!!!! Layoutshooter

You are VERY welcome, maybe some day we meet and have an "adult" beverage and talk about old times. Layoutshooter

Phil, are you aware that the first two Americans killed in Viet Nam were ASA? I have one friend, barely alive now, that was a Warrent Officer in ASA. Made many jumps into coutries that we were not fighting in, like, Cambodia. One thing about the military or the intel sevices, we all had a...

There are lots of civilian "Vets" from the "Shadow War" as well. Many died VERY young from "stress" related maladies. It was a very hard life. Imagine dealing with major events, knowing what really happened and not being able to talk about it, even with your wife. It destroyed a lot a marriages...

Don't sell us too short Phil, we might have been Rear Ech etc but we had an important job to do and did it well. Besides, not many people even know what a "mill" really is. Just us in the "Club" LOL Layoutshooter

Yes, 0520S3 to be exact. A "ditty bop". Went onto radio printers, signal analysis, radio direction finding and system design. Not bad for a "HOG"!!! I too was at Devens, got there Oct '70 went to Misawa, Japan in May of '71. Then onto Homestead AFB via Ft. Bragg. Layoutshooter

The military is looking at going back to the .30 round. In an urban setting it takes just too many rounds to put down "bad guy". In town I would prefere a 10ga with #0 buck shot. You have to do what you can with what they give you. My M16 in basic was old and it sucked. It was a " Colt" serial...

The basic right to live free. Nothing less. Layoutshooter

It is not only the military that treats it's "vets" bad. I did overf 17 years at one of those 3 letters agencies that ends in an "A". That was after 3 years in the Army Security Agency. Just as most other that did my job I have profound hearing loss. The agency that I worked for does not...

I am not a big fan of the M16 and do not like the round. I prefere a heavier caliber like the .30. Better energy retention down range. The M16 is VERy iffy at 500 yards except in the hands of an expert and then only under perfect conditions. The bullet is too light and is pushed way to far by...

Very true, duck tape rules!!!! Layoutshooter

Even though Lincoln was wrong the South did screw up. They should have never made thier stand on States rights on the issue of slavery. In the movie "Gettysburg" there is a line attributed to Gen Longstreet. He said that the South should have freed the slave and then fired on Ft. Sumpter. I...

That is because it is a "Left Wing" country is doing the attacked. The entire world is headed that way. Freedom is a bad thing. Just wait until you see what happens when the left makes it's final push here. Comming soon. Layoutshooter
