Military - June 2007

I am planning on joining the Air Force Reserves right now. But, I want to go Active Duty after I get my 4 year degree (no, I don't care if I go in as an officer or not). Is it true that it's near impossible to go from Reserves to Active Duty right now? Will it still be that way after 3 and a half years? (already have 21 hours of college).

percentage wise US troops kill more of their own, blue on blue, than any other country. they rely on numbers instead of skill. the record of battles to wins is quite low compared to the best countries. it seems a case of if you throw enough ****.......well.........

all I ever heard about vietnam vets was that they were the poor kids who were thrown into a war and now there all messed up on drugs and suicide. ALmost every myth about vietnam vets is a lie, on average men who served in the war make more money than those who did not, they are less likely to be in prison than those who did not, and my favorite truth about vietnam vets is they are less likely to be homeless than draft dodgers. Just because a homeless guy says he was in the war doesn't mean he was. What do you think?

My sister is in the service and has to send her (overseas) daughter home(unexpectedly) to Michigan. I talked to HR at my job and they say I wouldn't qualify to take anytime beyond vacation..because I would not fall under the FMLA(Family Medical Leave Act). I have read the act and I don't appear to qualify but I thought that there was some type of relief to service members who have to place there child with a relative in time of war or whatever. She is not going to war but she would like to leave her job at her appointed time (and be stationed in the states) instead of staying an extra year with her daughter. Am I eligible under FMLA since I am taking legal guardianship. Any help or direction would be appreciated :)

Who thinks that it would be more beneficial to spend the multi billion dollars on helping the human race, rather than destroying it??
Please keep it clean and rather short. I know that this WILL strike a nerve, but it is not meant to, just want to see what people are thinking????

Ok i dont want to be an officer because they do not get much field time especially the special forces. However, i still want to try out for the United states Naval academy. So my question is, can you go to the USNA and still ENLIST in the Marines and not be an officer?

I have taken up reading books about bomber command to come to terms with the reasoning behind it. I started this after working in Coventry and seeing the cathedral remains and the peace tributes ect.
My feelings are now that:
Bomber Harris did the maths on Coventry and took it to the Germans multiplied by several times Note: it took 200,000 men 3 months to get Coventry working again, so in Germany it would mean less war power and more repair power.
Von Krupp the industrialist behind the Nazis was asked what his production efficiency was when tried in Nuremberg he could only operate at 50% so less tanks less bombs less of everything was caused by the industrial impact of Bomber Command.
Finally the men who flew, The experiences of both Allied and American airmen, who without fighter support in the early days, braved the skies day and night. Often for 8 -10 hours over enemy territory. Returning with 2 engines half a wing and prayer. Truely these heroes should be honourd better

Is it moral to kill an enemy in war? Is abortion a moral or immoral act? There are many such difficult questions that are very hard to answer.

I usually don't go around yelling about who we should go to war with, as I really don't understand how it all works, but why aren't we going in and giving that monster Mugabe a bloody nose?

He is destroying his own people. Let's do some good and earn merit on the world stage and kick him in the goolies!

Okay, don't say 2 million. What would be a realistic number to have started with? A number that would have ensured that things proceeded more in our favour?

I recall a Genral before the U.S. senate was asked this question. He said that it would take 'Hundreds of thousands of troops'. He was laughed off the stage.

How many troops should we have sent in at the start of the war?

My husband is in Iraq. I am going to be induced in four days, and I am curious how long it takes the Red Cross to send their message to him. I want him to know that I am going to be induced, and hopefully, he will be allowed to come home.
