Doubtless you have more military experience than my father who was a 30 year
Marine and retired a full bird Colonel. Yeah, he really enjoyed writing
letters of condolence to the folks back home; it was one of his fondest
duties. He saw enough action, sweetums, since he was shot twice. And
sadly, those teenagers sent to Nam were nothing but stupid... they didn't
want to be there (who did?) but they also didn't know how to follow orders.

Dad rarely talks about 'Nam but when he does he talks about those boys who
pointedly ignored an order and got their butts killed because of it. Sorry
if your experience was so movie-land perfect, which is impossible given the
crap going on then.

That is an outrageous and an outrageously stupid thing to say. More
than 59,000 young American men were killed over there, some of them my
very good friends. Some of them for not following orders, I'm sure,
others for following stupid orders, and many others because that's what
happens to young men in war. You should shut the **** up because you
don't know what the **** you're talking about.

I seriously doubt you understand what your Dad has said about his
experiences. I'd hate to think he was so self-deluded as to think that
those men would be alive if they'd only followed his orders. I was
with the 1st Brigade of the 101st Airborne, and we thought Marines were
very brave combat soldiers who could have done much better with smarter
leadership. -aem

Well said. Jill is such an arrogant idiot. To disagree with a war is one
thing,
but there is no excuse for dishonoring the men who did their duty, some of
whom gave their lives.

My cousin was a Green Beret chopper pilot in Viet Nam when he had fly
some visiting blow hard Congressman around to see the action. He
repeatedly told the Congressman it was not a good day to fly... a
dangerous day in fact.
He was shot in the air by enemy fire when the Congressman insisted.
He followed "orders" yet would you say he was stupid Jill? Lucky for him
he lived to tell about it instead of having some letter written to his
mother by someone who had no clue what really happened.

I know full well what happened there. So does my father. Dad could have
stayed stateside. He'd achieved sufficient rank to ask for specific tours
of duty. But he believed in what the government told him so he did two
tours over there.

By the way, a Congressman has no authority to give a military chopper pilot
"orders" so who was the stupid one? The politicos who told the pilot to
fly? Yessiree, stupid. The pilot for not saying "No sir, sorry sir!" and
getting their butt out of there? They should have grounded that Congressman
in enemy territory... left him there to get his political butt shot off with
full photo ops.

Not everyone who reads this newsgroup is an ex-American GI therefore
SOS is not a particularly descriptive term to them.

Try using your kill filter to filter out nasty words if you don't want
your grandkids reading them.

There are far worse words than the word "shit" in other threads in
this newsgroup. Why single out this thread?

Nah..some of us just look at if from the enlisted guys/gals point of
view . We, the lower ranking officers and CWs are left in the middle of
where all the shit ends up after it rolls on down from the senior
officer corps.

Good show...blame it all on stupid enlsited guys for getting themsleves
killed or maimed. <Sarcasm to follow> Obviously, the senior officers
who ordered them into implausible, unwinnable situations had absolutely
nothing to do with it. Obviously the inadequate training on the part of
enlsited and junior officers also had nothing to do with it. You want
stupidity? Try the sitting government of the time for getting us
involved in a no-win war.

Tell me Jill, how many actual years of military service did YOU
complete? I have 15 before a medical retirement. I was Vietnam Era, I
got to take care of some of those boys when they came back - the one
who survived thanks to guys like L not-L and MASH units.

Oh yeah since you felt the need to bring up your dad's service
connected injuries, my late husband received the Purple Heart and
Bronze Star for action in the Meking Delta and suffered for years with
post traumatic stress syndrome thanks to 'Nam.

I hear worse words at school from 5th graders. I hope they plan on
keeping the grandkids isolated from all media, TV, and locked in the
closet the rest of their lives. I think it will be the only way to
prevent them hearing or reading those nasty words!

I have to say Jill frequently reminds me of those children at the
playground, or perhaps the wife of some new young butter bar who wants
to remind everyone of daddy's/husband's rank ("full bird colonel")
without ever thinking how silly that sounds? Especially since she's

crowing about "dad the full bull."
Dear old dad's rank is not her accomplishment in any way. Yet it is
ALWAYS brought up, as if it makes some difference in the scheme of
things? Dreams of reflected glory, I suppose?
Today when I read about her father being wounded, I laughed aloud and
thought "Yeah, but fragged by your own troops doesn't count!" LOL

<grins>

I don't not trim on purpose, sometimes I just plain don't think about it
especially when I'm posting half-snockered and close to my bed time.

I post to about 16 different groups and I go back and forth between them
a lot. There is one list I'm on where the regulars _deliberately_ do not
trim posts and I get razzed when I actually do it. If I have to scroll
thru three screens...... <G> Even _I_ don't care to do that even with
broadband so I'll trim the damned things.

It's an, um, "unusual" group.

Dad didn't exactly go into military service at age 17 in 1941 as a senior
officer. It's not my fault he elected to stay in the military and was later
in charge of people who went out and got themselves shot. I'd really rather
he'd have stayed home instead of being in Korea when I was born. I'd rather
he never went to VietNam at all. He was doing a job and I can't say it was
one he liked but he did it, okay?

Fragged? Fragging involved the commanders not the privates and the lower
ranking folks. No one frags a private. No one even frags a Major. There's
no fun in that.

Get over it. I have. In fact, I can't wait until my father dies. Then I
get all his guns and medals and war memorobilia. Woo hoo!

And I still say creamed chipped beef (SOS) made by Stouffers is just fine.

So the bottom line is 'if you can't beat em join em, right?'. Sorry,
folks, I'll stick with the morals and values I was taught. Very sad
they have become so obsolete. I figure I've got about another 20 years
on this earth and that seem to be quite enough considering the trend
evolving.

Jim,

You're entitled to your beliefs and opinions! We are not without morals
and values either. Those words are in the dictionary!

No..the point is if you don't want your kids or grandkids to read
language that offends you, it is YOUR JOB to pay attention to which
groups are allowed to be read. It is YOUR JOB to censor your
kids/grandkids reading material, not mine nor any other member of this
group. We all have values and morals - one of my values is I don't
censor other people's writing or speech. If it offends me, I don't read
it. That's a piece of advice you ought to follow.

I prefer the Hormel jarred beef and a nice white sauce. Add peas and
mushrooms ad lib (gasp, shocking, I know)
I've been known to soak it a while before slicing chiffonade and that
cuts down a bit on the salt. I've tried the Stouffers once and liked it
but thought it was saltier than homemade.

One possible solution is to check your browser options and see if it
offers quote options. That might help?

The man has Alzheimer's. He can't remember it's not Ronald RAYGUN who is
President let alone which Bush it is. It's time for him to give up the
ghost, and yes I'm sorry to say so. He's already decided my mother will
move to Memphis and be housed in some sort of "facility" even though she
doesn't need the assistance he does. So, I'm being unkind and uncaring in
hoping he'll just go quietly into that good night? Mom would be living a
much more peaceful life not having to deal with his rantings and ravings all
day and all night, you can trust me on that one.

Alzheimer's is rough. :-(
You have my sincere empathy......

But again, why does she not place him in a nursing home so she does not
have to deal with this? It's _got_ to seriously suck!

My father is having some memory problems now and I'm scared to death
that it might be going in that direction. We are trying to head it off
with some supplemental therapy. It does not appear to be getting any
worse yet, but he has good days and bad days...

Not really...

If you have never seen a terminal Alzheimer's patient...

You would understand that sometimes death can be a blessing. :-(

It's gotta be pretty rough for Jill right now.
She's just trying to cope and I know she does not really mean that.
Psychological pain does weird things to people. Put yourself in her
place.
