Military - March 2007

I was an MP assigned to CID as an Investigator for 18 months and a K-9 Handler, deploying to Iraq in 04'. I have a Law Enforcement job that makes it very difficult to attend drills and definitely cannot go to schools. I am also not in compliance with military regs. do to my job, I work UC. If I stay with my current Unit they will make me re-enlist for another 5 yrs. and deploy me again as soon as I get done with ASAC and WOC school, which will cause financial hardship to my family as I make a lot more with my civilian job, not to mention the stress on my family. What chances do I have of entering IRR and not being recalled. I have known guys that have been released for job situations, but not sure how to do it.

During the Indian Wars, Indians were labeled savages who scalped settlers (it was actually the other way around ). The Germans were labeled "the Huns" during WWI to evoke ancient hatred of Asian nomads who invaded Europe in the 5th Century. The Nazis provided an easy target during WWII with their Naziism and for the Japanese, anti-Asian sentiments were not hard to evoke in the US. This anti-Asian racism lasted through Korea and Vietnam.

But how about our Civil War? Both sided were white and American. How did the North villify the South? As rebels and slave-owners?(That did not sound too demonic , considering the time). How about the South against the North ? Damn Yankees (pretty tame)? *****rs Lovers (insulting enough?)

Men are not naturally inclined to kill and maim other men with whom they have no personal quarrels so the leaders have had to use something to dehumanize and demonize the other side. What did they use during the Civil War to villify each other?

I would assume they're not as strict/intense as criteria to be a fighter pilot. Also, what branch, and what path would you take to fly supply ships?

Does the US military still use submarines in active warfare? It seems to me like they mostly just use them to transport things now that the Cold War is over. Can anyone confirm this?

Iraq has not done anything to us...it was Al-Qaida!...but we still want to spend money on weapons and restoring Iraq, when there are people in the same condition in America....and when i think about it we would not need to fix anything over there if we just did not blow it up!

this ties in with my first question. my one cousin is leaving in a few weeks for basic and i have another younger cousin that's probably going to join but he wants to workout some before he goes. what can he do so the workouts won't be such a shock when he gets there? cardio/weights etc.(he's too lazy to get on his comp and ask so i have to, so maybe he needs to workout lol)

i know this is kind of miscategorized but i like the fact that i get answers from people who are/were in the military vs. the fitness people in that category.

My husband has recently enlisted in the Army. Because of his prior work experience they have placed him in Petroleum to go to Ft. Lee after he has completed basic training. Where are they usually stationed afterwards? All I read about is that they are trained and sent to combat. We were told because of his age and our children that he would not go, now I am terrified because that is all I see is them sending him. Can anyone please let me know what the odds for a petroleum supply specialists are for having to serve overseas?
