Several soldiers are protesting the Iraqi war with a 'Petition for Redress'. They are disappointed/frustrated by the senselessness of it. They want the soldiers to come home now, safe and alive. Those of you who advocate the war, would you take their place if they do come home?

He's a recipient of the nations highest honor for a citizen, the U.S. presidential medal of freedom.
When America's involvement in World War II began, he tried to enlist but was rejected due to an old football injury, he was 34, and he was married, father of four status. He was so dejected he even flew to Washington to ask to be allowed to join the Navy - but was turned down. Since he couldn't fight abroad, he decided to do his part at home, and dedicated himself to the war effort by making inspirational war films.
To all Americans, he became the true symbol of the American fighting man. Duke fought against Communism in his own backyard. In the 1940s he was one of the most notable stars to come out against the communist conspiracy in Hollywood.

Now in iraq and modern war the soldiers must call in to see if they can return fire. My friends brother was in the army and they were driving along and bam a carbomb hit. They were in a town and being fired at. Their humvey was flipped over. They called in for permission to return fire and the answer was no. They had to sit there and get shot. The reason the answer was no was they were in a town. Now years ago like in previous wars they didnt have to sit there and just get shot. Is this messed up?

Hi, I am trying to flush out a web page and could use a little help with a photo: http://www.ddgnevada.com/family/pop/Old%20Family.html

Three photos from the end, a man standing next to a car.

Insignia appears to be one chevron up, four down and eight years of service. Any ideas what rank this man is and what country he hails from?

Also, if any old car buffs could identify the cars on this page, it would be very much appreciated as well.

Thanks, Dan

I've seen "chair force", "Air Farce". Are these people jealous because they aren't in the Air Force or do they really think the Air Force has desk jobs? Is there anyone out there that is tired of hearing this? My hubby is AF, is a crew chief, and works 12 hour days and 6 day work weeks! Some desk job! Why do people think AF doesn't deploy? My hubby's been in Iraq 3 times (he's there now). He goes for 4 months, comes home for 2 weeks and then leaves again. I always tell my 3 year old that If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. Seems like some people on this forum should take that advice!

I love the Air Force. GO AIR FORCE!

My childrens school will be collecting some items to send to members of the National Guard. It is a Christian school and we would like to include some Bibles.

What would be preferred by the soldiers? A small pocket size one in a plastic bag, The Outdoor Bible which is larger and comes in a camo bag with 6 or so books with each containing 2 or more books of the Bible on a waterproof map style function, or I saw one that is by Duraword that is more tradional size but waterproof?

Is waterproofing necessary/preferred? They are expensive. This is also the National Guard and they are doing more policing or at least that is my understanding.

Any input from soldiers themselves or National Guard members would be appreciated.

Thanks for all you do!!

a Massachusetts rep wants to do away with the don't ask don't tell rule in the military... and allow those that were kicked out for being gay to rejoin... some military officials believe that having openly gay people could disrupt the cohesiveness or a unit! What is your opinion, without considering the fact that its discrimination, because i thought the military discriminated over smaller things like tattoos in the wrong place and flat feet! do you think people should be allowed to be openly gay in the military...?

I'm joining to serve but the army seems to have better benefits for after you are out of the service. i.e up to 72,000 dollars with the GI bill and army college fund combined or 60,00 college loan repayment if you already have loans out when you join! The air force has no college fund and only 10,000 in loan repayment... but everyone says the air force has the best quality of life and the most techinical jobs, my ASVAB scores were great now i'm trying to see the pros and cons of both services besides thr Army being more likely to spend years in Iraq!

I am curious and a bit nervous. I am scared about the situation overseas, and with our problems with the north koreans. I mean I got this feeling that we will invade them or go to war with them counting iran. I just hope it never happens, but I guess with the tensions overseas I got this feeling things will get worse before they get better.

and a guy called him a baby killer. I know that was during the Vietnam war. But do some people still call U.S soldiers that?

Think about the days before the war, people wanted revenge because of what happend in 9/11. Do you think it was Iraq or Saudi Arabia we should have gone to war with? Please don't get angry but someone had to pay for what happend. Would you have rather thought that anybody could do this to us at any time they wanted. Be truthfull to yourself and answer if you can?

After the former repub congress quit allowing the VA and American Legion to speak before the house concerning budgets for Vets, Nancy Pelosi said that the now Dem congress would bring the Vets back so they could be heard. Now, what do you all think about that??? Who can say that the Dems don't care about our Vets???? The repubs cut them off, the Dems brought them back.
