The author sent me and our buddy George Casey, the galleys. We were in a group of just the three of us who reported to the Pentagon in early ‘81 for pre-INCHOP briefings. But you won’t read it, and I wouldn’t spend the postage to send you the toilet paper I just wiped my *** with.RebelGator » 23 May 2023, 7:37 pm » wrote: ↑ You're gonna have to wait for your hero worship, the book won't be published until July.
Maybe the Commander will send you an autographed copy.....
If you had ever served, you would know that is a commonly used phrase that applies to close-knit military units and does NOT only apply to the men in that book.
The UN is still in Lebanon. I left in June of ‘82.RedheadedStranger » 23 May 2023, 7:41 pm » wrote: ↑ The UN were so brave they tucked tail and ran out of Lebanon after the towel heads blew up the Marine barracks in '83.
You reckon they gave them medals for that **** or what?

Liar. I have never claimed any heroic actions. Why can’t you carry on a conversation without deceit?RedheadedStranger » 23 May 2023, 7:48 pm » wrote: ↑ He's a regular war hero don't ya know.
Just ask him.

That's Greek for "I refuse to go down that path for fear it will incriminate me, rendering me deflated and humiliated once again."
And look like the pro-Marxist, liberally indoctrinated, false impotent guy in a book hero that he is. He's some funny **** right there.

You made it about race, not me. Own it, stolen valor. Just admit that it’s the ***’s fault and that it was the *** loving liberals who made it so they actually thought they were better than the white man.DeplorablePatriot » 23 May 2023, 8:23 pm » wrote: ↑ If you must...
Reagan years. I'm talking more civil, happier and far less political hatred among citizens, less division and crime than during your Obozo and Obiden years. Every President has pitfalls, but what I addressed, barring all else, is true, Mr. Roberts.
Now, for your answer to my topic regarding the black population...
I don’t wear a trident. I wear a SWO device… above my left pocket in a working uniform, above my ribbons in a service uniform, and above my medals in a dress uniform. I can remember back in 1976 when Vice Admiral John Buckeley was debriefing our ship after an INSURV inspection, and he called it a SWISH pin. When asked what that meant, he said, “Surface Warfare Insignia, **** Head”. He wore one too.DeplorablePatriot » 23 May 2023, 8:14 pm » wrote: ↑ You should probably stop wearing that surplus Navy garb with the trident facing the wrong direction, upside down, and on the wrong side, below your pocket.
A real one might come along, tear off your head and **** down your neck.
That's some funny ****. Right. There.
I can remember back in 1979, our chauffeurs (you, supposedly), bobbed around in the parked pac fleet, while we were poised to debark for some FMF ****-kicking during the Iranian hostage crisis. You boys didn't like bloodshed or dirt in your food. You fight from great distances while the real alpha male officers went ashore.maineman » 23 May 2023, 8:57 pm » wrote: ↑ I don’t wear a trident.

Shame on you. You serviced a butter bar in the head. I believe the scuttlebutt. That's how you served. I slay myself!
How cute, you've got a working uniform.....does it come with pretty ribbons and brass bars, too?maineman » 23 May 2023, 8:57 pm » wrote: ↑ I don’t wear a trident.

Clearly, Cletis…you’ve never served. Uniforms come in a variety of styles. Working uniforms, service dress uniforms, full dress uniforms, and dinner dress uniforms. Correspondingly…. No awards, ribbons, full medals, miniature medals. Collar device vary on rank. Mine is a silver oak leaf. Does that answer your question?RebelGator » 24 May 2023, 5:42 am » wrote: ↑ How cute, you've got a working uniform.....does it come with pretty ribbons and brass bars, too?

proven? how's that????
Administering 4.8 mu of procaine penicillin to "officers and gentlemen" with Neisseria gonorrhea or PPNG who suffered from LBFM syndrome. In private, of course. Far from the eyes of enlisted personnel. Because officers and gentlemen are above catching a STD.maineman » 23 May 2023, 10:07 pm » wrote: ↑ You were still in diapers in ‘79.

but just for a moment, let’s accept your fantasy…. You are, in your fantasy, a jarhead embarked on some gator freighter….and you did……what, exactly, besides sitting in your berthing compartment circle jerking onto a saltine, during the Iranian hostage crisis?
