Military - February 2007

I'd like to send "care" packages to our troops. What are the addresses for each branch of service to get the stuff overseas?
Also- any websites with guidelines / no-no's.
If you know a member or family who would benefit from care packages and / or specific prayer- I'm on it! I have to be creative because I have NO money- postage is going to push it... E-me.
Thank you U.S. Vetrans! I love you! God bless you and yours.

My boyfriend is 26 hes a 1st LT we have been talking about getting married because he might be getting stationed in Germany! So when we were in the midwest at Christmas with his family he said we will go to the court house if I get the job because I wont go without you. But now it looks like he is going to be getting the job and it stresses me out and scares me cause he will be gone for 2 years. When he told me I stayed strong and I was kidding and I said you cant go without me and he said well you cant go. So I dont know if he is just saying that or if he is going to propose and hes just trying to throw me off. Then this weekend I finally broke down and we both started crying and he said "you mean the world to me and I know that your the women I want to merry, I just dont know what to do." We both cryed most of the weekend. He said he wanted to avoid the talk because he doesnt know if hes going to get the job or not! I just dont know how to take all of this im scared more than anythi

I am 18 yrs old (female) and have decided to join the Marine Corps. I am the oldest of 3 kids, my mother is a single parent who is currently not had a job after being layed off 7 yrs ago from a job she had for 18 yrs. My father is not actively involved in my life, he has been a custodian for Colombia University the past 17 years. I want better for myself, so i have chose the military as a stepping stone to shape a career. I figure its better to do it this way than have to work and go to college, in which i will be working to pay off college. I feel like i am in a predicament but i am sure this is something i would love to do. I understand the circumstances and the risk which i am willing to take. I just wonder am i being selfish to my mother and siblings at home? Is this the right way to set an example for those i have looking up to me? I am really looking forward to going!!!

US pilots have killed Canadians and Brits and Germans. Maybe the US air force might give up and go home and leave the fighting to the professionals so they don't kill all the friendly forces helping them out! Great intelligence work and great cover up work. I suppose these incompetent amateurs will get a slap on the wrist also!

My friend signed a navy contract, but now he's having doubts about going. I've heard there are different ways that you can get out of the contract and not go. Does anyone know what these ways are, and are there any internet sources that you can lead me to?

Do they give soldiers like a storage place for furniture and other items? While the soldier is in a combat zone.

Hey! My hubby's in the ARMY and he's being Medboarded--but he's still in AIT. They said it's because of something that happened in Basic. His hip clicks when he walks, and causes him a lot of pain. He can't pass his PT test because of the run, and he's been on crutches for MONTHS.

We were wondering if anybody knows what to expect during a medboard. They said it can take 3-9 months, which is kind of a pain when it comes to looking for new jobs (most of them don't like such an open ended timeline for when you can start. ) We would like to be able to get our "new life" going as soon as possible.

They also said he's entitled to benefits because it wasn't pre-existing. But they didn't specify what those benefits were, beyond saying that there would probably be a disability check from the VA and some "other stuff." They hinted that you can rush it through the VA if you go through some secret bribe system? I don't think I agree with that.

If you can help at all, I'd appreciate it.

We didn't go there to save the jews: 6 million were already dead; the French were getting along very well with the Nazis; Pearl Harbor happened after the US made Halliburton type deals with UK; there were almost no "allies" but the US; UK and Australia...10 million young americans were drafted and deployed. I DON'T GET IT.

These so-called journalists are just shilling for the enemy with their choice of terminology. Why can't they just call collateral damage what it is: collateral damage.

To shamelessly engage in the use of emotion-laden terms like "civilian deaths" betrays an agenda. Just who's side are they on anyhow?

I have already gone to MEPS to take my ASVAB and got a 50 or 60. My recruiter already has all my transcripts, my background check, my marriage cert, and all my documents. he is picking me up this Thursday to take me to MEPS at 4am, to take my physical and pick my job. Does this mean that I am pretty much in, or could I still be told I can't join for any reason.
