A friend told me that if a Rear Admiral is unmarried then they have to be known as married to the Queen. Sounds odd to me ... is it true?

There's been a lot of tough talk coming from our president lately. I think by fall of this year. Probably just airstrikes though and not a full scale ground invasion. But if there is some kind of ground force involved it'll probably be along the Iraq / Iran border. What do you think?

If you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq
theatre of operations during the last 22 months, and a total of 2,112
deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 10,000 soldiers.

The firearm death rate in Washington D.C. is 80.6 per 10,000 for the same
period.

That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in
theU.S. Capitol, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the
nation, than you are in Iraq.

Conclusion: The U.S. should pull out of Washington immediately.


If it turns green, throw it out!

my husband is about to file for divorce today. he has been planning and getting all of his affairs in order for the last 3 months to prepare for his well being after the divorce. he stopped the joint account and has only given me 150 dollars this year. he claims that he can't afford to give me money because times are hard, but he is buying all the things he wants and needs. he buys a little food here and there and does the bare minimum to keep from getting in trouble. I know that the kids and i will have to move out of housing in June or July. I haven't worked in 5 years and i need childcare, a place to live and to be able to have help getting back on my feet with 4 kids one of which is mine from another relationship. i havwe talked to everyone on post, but he has gotten there before me and made me out to ber a crazy woman. please help.

I already swore in and singned my contract at MEPS, a week ago. I am scheduled to leave for basic training in June. But yesterday my recruiter called me saying that MEPS called him stating that when they did my background check, I have a warrant from 10 years ago, for some community service I did not finish from a Theft Under $300(stole a few cd's). My recruiter is saying they are doing everything possible to work this out.I am afraid that I will be discharged or kicked out. If this is the case..could I still be elegible to join the US Army??

My husband is going to WLC (the new version of PLDC) when I am going to be in the beginning of my ninth month of pregnancy. If I go into labor, how do I get in touch with him? Do I go through his chain of command, call the NCO Academy, or will the hospital have to send an actual Red Cross Message?

I understand Saddam hanged for killing civilians supporting Kurdish insurgents. The US army and Iraqi allies are doing exactly the same. So who will be tried and hanged this time?
