What is the official rule about wearing flip flops while wearing the PT uniform? Does it say in the FM anywhere? I don't have time to look it up myself. I'm specifically wondering about wearing flip flops outside but on the same living pad.

What's the difference between a 2404 and a 5988? I don't have the ability to look at the forms right now. I thought a 5988 was for PMCSing but last time I did a PMCS it was on a 2404. Did it change or am I confused or what?

Why do I always see on the news that this many American troops died. No offence but am I supposed to feel sad for them. There in a war and in a war people die that’s life I wish the news would stop complaining. The US troops are in their country they are killing their people. They are bound to loose some of your own. Besides the number of US soldiers that die every day are nowhere as close to the number of Iraqis and Afghanis that die from US troops.

And if u say its because they are a threat you r wrong. About a month ago I heard on CNN that an Iraqi man was killed after US troops stormed into his house with their guns where they found his wife and kids in the living room. Moments later the father/husband enters the room with a gun. And they shot him in front of his wife and kids. Did it ever occur to them that he was trying to protect his family?

This is what she's thinking as written in her blog...

"So I've decided that I am going to get a new tattoo, or rather add to the cross I have on my back. I want to get something to represent my relationship and what we have had to overcome for the 2 years that we will have been apart (by the time he makes it home from Iraq) however, I have no ideas on how to represent that. I feel like I have such a great idea and no pictures in my head. Something along the lines of strength, courage, hardships, faithfulness, ect. that this deployment has brought upon us. Any ideas from anyone? or better yet, send me drawings :) I don't want anything tacky....such as my husbands name across my back or something.....that will never happen, its still gotta look nice....help me out here people. "

Soon after world war 2 world leaders met and formed what became known as the league of nations, America did not join. America was currently under its isolationism idea, (no involvement in Euoprean affairs.)
The league of nations failed to stop hitler, who began invading Poland, Austria, ect.
America did not join the war seriously until Pearl Harbor.
The reason i think that America is the "World Police" Is because of what i call "The Guilt Theory". This is because America feels if she was in the league of nations she may have stopped Hitler and prevented WW2. now maybe (and this is just a theory) whenever America sees any sign of threat they jump. They said Hitler was just some dictator and everyone thought his forces were nothing, he ended up violating the treaty that was supposed to limit his army that had been signed after WW1. Does America act because before she did not act before? Saddam, Ahkmadejad, are all just some "little dictators". Do you see a similarity?
Your thoughts?

Do you enter DEP and then take the ASVAB or take the ASVAB and then enter DEP?

I ask this because I was wondering if I enter DEP and at some point decide I want to pursue a different Air Force job, can I retake my asvab and see if I qualify for a different job?

Why does the military use uranium 238 (depleted uranium) in weapons now, knowing it hurts our troops too?

I've been dating a soldier for nearly a year now and I always hear negative remarks on military men, especially when they are deployed, like mine is right now. I would just like to hear some opinions on military men and can many of them be faithful?

It seems that America the from top to the bottom has decided that violence is a more legitimate way to settle social problems in America now than in the last ten years. You can not dismiss a connection between the War in Iraq and the Violence on the home front. Can you?
One way to measure this phenominon is to check and see if violence increased during the last major war envolving America, Vietnam. If I remember correctly, it did, significantly increase.

I recently had an intense discussion with an Iraq combat veteran, which quickly digressed into a lament over how Americans no longer realize that they need to "earn their freedom." I was struck at how vague this concept is, and I couldn't come up with a reasonable way to decide when someone had or hadn't earned their freedom. If restricted to a simplistic "you must serve in the military" answer, you still have to consider people who spend time cleaning runways or cooking, who never see a battlefield. And what about women, who weren't allowed to serve in the military not so long ago. Did my grandmother not earn her freedom by supporting my grandfather, who fought with the Air Force in WW2? What about people who are not capable of serving in the military? What alternatives do they have to "earn their freedom"?

Is this just a pretty little phrase used to foster a fighting, civic spirit, or does it pose a real question to each and every citizen, to answer in their own way?
