As she is on a base filled with men she is getting a lot of sexual harrasment,and she can't even walk around the base in the evening without a
bunch of these men making sexual remarks at
her. They also do the same thing in the office where she works. I'm proud she is a Marine and
I don't think she should be harrased by these
men as they are supposed to be polite. They even drink in the barracks. I think these men are
out of place and a sad excuse for Marines.Can
anone tell me what to do to stop this? I don't
want to give her name as it would probally do her more harm than good.I also don't want to give the name of the base either because it would get back to them in a minute. Thanks

Are soldeirs in the Coast Guard looked or talked down to from other services (Army,Navy,Marines,AF)? If so, Im not sure why; most of the people in the Coast Guard are doing alot more for the country than alot of the MOS's in other branches..But by the way ive heard people talk and on tv and ect.. It seems the Coast Guard is looked at a lesser branch..Do people see it this way?..If so, why?

For a Coast Guard spouse to live w/ her husband on base and become an orthodontist? I wouldnt think she would have trouble for the first 4 years; either taking classes on base or online; but after that when she needs to go to dental school; where would she go? She would have to go to one of the 56 accreditated dental schools and that would be hard if ones not around the base. I might be missing something here, can anyone give me adivise..PLEASE!? for 10 points

Chemical weapons like VX and Sarin are gone in 30 days but depleted uranium poisons the soil for generations.

I keep hearing people say that a tornado of investigations won't help. This is usually said by Republicans. However, there are soldiers being wounded and killed daily in Iraq, and for them we should investigate. The soldiers are executing a plan that was designed by this administration, and as of now everything they have decided has put their lives in danger, and hasen't made America safer. So I'm happy Rumsfeld is gone. However, there are alot of other people who need to go as well.

..drive-by media says it'll come down to it. Liberals seem to wanna stoke this fire, why? Aren't the Israeli's tired of war? Or, since the military brass has changed enough from '99-'00, the previous hezbollah conflict, have they gotten more trigger happy?
I don't support an idea to attack Iran, but its not my call, I just hope wisdom prevails somehow to not steer everything into war.
There could be little doubt that an Israeli attack on Iran would draw U.S. into a webbed war of run and gun battles all over the middle east.

I went today and loved seeing the veterans, members of the armed services, cadets, and representatives of other relevant organisations. But there seemed to be a lot of civilians, not necessarily assisting the infirm and some wearing their grandfather's medals. This country has millions of servicemen's grandchildren - should they all get to march alongsie those who served? It diluted the parade of those to whom we owe thanks with regular folks basking in unearned adulation. Does anyone know who some of these people are? How did they get in the parade?

I've noticed this a couple of times now. There seems to be a new SAC rank insignia in the RAF where the three propellor blades are contained within a white circle.
The old traditional one still seems to be in use, so I'm assuming this new one is in some way trade-specific.
I've searched the RAF website and google, but to no avail.
Anybody know what this new insignia is all about?

I knew something was wrong. I even questioned this so-called "rebuilding" in Iraq. & I was right.
The U.S.-led, U.S.-funded portion of Iraq's reconstruction nears its end, American officials and contractors alike are grappling with a cold reality: Thousands of successes in Iraq may add up to a single failure.Poor planning and coordination by U.S. officials meant that even successful individual projects failed to do the job; for example, health-care centers were built at great cost but had no water and sewer service. Poor work-site management by contractors meant that some projects went awry. And now that the United States is handing over reconstruction efforts to Iraq, many involved with the process worry that the Iraqis don't have the training or the money to keep U.S.-built facilities running.

But more than 100 health-care facilities that were scheduled to be finished by now instead are empty because the contractors assigned to build them did not get their jobs done.

Why not close the boarders until this sh!t is sorted out?
Send all the foreign prisoners back home forever.
Why does the goverment who we elected to represent us, not do what the majority of this country wants.

My sources are the opinion polls that appear on TV screens every day of the week, they are always massively against more immigrants coming to our country while we are under threat.

Conversely, would you, being a female, want to share a slit trench with a male?

You're in the combat arms. You're on active duty or on exercise. You end up with someone from the opposite sex. There are limited facilities. Would you be comfortable sleeping; eating; and of course, fight from the same place? Would gender roles crop up? Man trying to protect the woman? Cat and dog fights? Is having co-ed combat units working?

First and foremost, just calling a spade a spade. The only time I worked with women was in the Navy. Man it was bad. Women did all the easy work (if anything) like paperwork and men did all the tough jobs. They were getting themselves pregnant to skip out of deployment. I transfered to an all male command, and it was a thousand times better. No PC enviornment. No pregnancies to deal with. None of my subordinates had females to fight over. No chemistry between anyone to interfere with their jobs. Didn't have to take up their slack. All this money spent on women could be put to better use. It's is my opinion women don't belong and I want to hear all of yours too, provided any "yes" answer uses logic rather than basing your answer on reasons of equality or PC correctness.

With all due respect, I ask you these questions for my school project on violent video games...
What do you think of all these game companies that try to sell their products based on War? Do you think it's a bloody shame that the current generation's obsession is playing video games like Counter Strike, or Call of Duty II? What words describe your feelings toward these games?
If you don't know abobut these games, here's a link to a trailer of a new one called Call of Duty III.

My husband has been stationed in Bahrain. (Us Navy) We are LDS (also known as Mormon). He has, so far, been unable to locate where the church is exactly. He has the address from the LDS web site (Lds Compound Villa 1903 Road 1437 Al Hamala 1014 ) but not knowing the area/being new there, he can't seem to locate it.
Does anyone have a phone number for the church there?
Or better, Any LDS service people currently stationed in Bahrain?
