Military - May 2007

I recall seeing a 9/11 program where it showed that the NYPD and the FDNY couldn't get along just before the the first tower was about to collapse. My friend who used to be in the USMC also said that officers in the army feel awkward when they have to collaborate with the Navy and other military contingents. Is this true, or is the friction that they show just an old-fashioned rivalry?

Seems he operated as an anti-aircraft gunner from 1943-1945.
He was a POW in an American camp.
Its certainly possible he has US blood on his hands.

Interesting that instead of following Christs example such a famous Christian figure head today chose to serve Hitler.

i've thought about joining the airforce before but the only thing is that if I were to join I would want to be a fighter pilot or something of the sort. Now my question is if you join do you get to choose what you would be or would you have no choice and they put you were they want you. I'm not talking about location wise job wise could I be a fight pilot or would I have to be what they want me to be? Also would it make a great deal of difference if I got my pilot license before joining or would it not matter?

We were informed in Feb. of 2006 that my husband would be deploying to Iraq in Sept. of 2006. March -June they started training and preparing for their tour. June -Aug my husband went to BNCOC phase 1 and phase 2, Sept they deployed. He had 27 use or lose days that needed to be used by Sept. well he lost them. I found out today (the S1 called me) and told me the Army is buying his 27 days off of him. How much will they pay him? I would have rather had the extra 27 days leave....

War in the name of protection/defence is right. But if you invade/kill/destroy a weak country who never really directly or indirectly harm you, you are committing atrocities. Iraq never harmed USA (some liers wanted to make you believe so) but no prove). How do you justify the killing of innocent Americans and Iraqis all in the name of perceived threat?.

when a person under the age of 21 can join the Army and kill but cannot buy beer in any store at home.
when is one of the countries with more laws and regulation that tells what people got to do,how to do it and when to do it , than any other one .(this laws being made by an elite of rich people who ussually control business and corporations that terrorize not only their own country ) but other part of the world too). (see bush and oil ,see chaney and hallebert,see generals and admirals and military companies like rigtehon and others )
When high education got to be paid by the people instead of being subsidise by the goverment
When health care so expensive that almost nobody can afford it .
dont'you think instead of spend trillions of dollars in wars ,will be better to spend it in there own people at home??

My brother has been in the military for over a year and has 3 years left. Ever since he has joined, he's been rather miserable and misses being at home and such. He wishes he could own his own house and have his job back and everything, but the military makes him live in the dorms. He's in the Air Force by the way. He was never given the job he wanted and he just hasn't been the same since he joined. He doesn't say much about it other than he doesn't like being in the Air Force. He says he just doesn't like his job but everything else is ok. What can he do to get out? I want to help him out. Can he see a chaplain or lie and say he will commit suicide? I know you can get out for medical reasons too and I've heard of other people getting out before. Please help....I hope they don't still own him for 3 years...thx

Is the USA a mindless arrogant nation ...CONSTANTLY medling in the affairs of all nations? Who appointed them policemen to the world?

Their troops seem not to recognize the fact that they are brainwashed by the evil political forces of GREED and Corruption in Washington DC.

Americans saw mindless German troops waste their lives for a madman during WWII....yet do the same thing for a NUT President and their worthless flag that represents ...not freedom but greed and corruption.

Americans claim to believe in GOD.....nothing could be further from the truth. The USA is choking to death from their own evil acts.....God does not bless the USA The USA has a filthy house and needs to clean itself before judging others

Nobody liked Saddam but you have to admit that Iraq and indeed the west was better off with him in power. That he was a murdering tyrant is cold hard fact, but at least with him we knew who we were dealing with. He managed to keep the waring factions in Iraq from this mass slaughter and any attempt by Al Qaeda to try and overthrow him would have been met by the full force of the Republican Guard. Also, as a Sunni he provided a much needed credible threat to Iran which served as a nice way of keeping them in check and making sure their attention was split. With Saddam you knew what you were facing, a mad man with a moderately powerful ARMY. As I'm sure any military commander will tell you, its much easier fighting a regular army than a swarm of religious radicals infiltrating every aspect of civilian life. The west AT ALL COSTS must not allow Muslim countries to be run by radical Islam. Military dictators can be bargained with and contained, radical Isalm cannot. Your thoughts?
