Military - August 2007

I'm in the Army, currently stationed at Fort Drum and on leave in Indiana right now. I bought a new car here and am driving it back to post. This got me thinking. Am I going to have any trouble getting on to post?

Do you think I will need to show my vehicle registration at some point? I haven't gotten my car registered yet because the dealership said it'll be 2-3 weeks before they can mail the title.

I know to drive your vehicle on post it needs to be "registered" on post as well, and they'll put a sticker on your windshield. Don't you need to show your registration (as well as other info) to get this done.

I just don't know. I didn't think of this before and I am really afraid I'll get stopped at the gate and have to abandon my car or something.

Bombed by their allies
The military is giving little away about the killing of three British soldiers last week, pending an inquiry. But was it folly or the fog of war?

Sorry I had to repeat the story
One thing that beat me is the word we use as friendly fires. I think during the time of Robin Hood and the other wars I have read and seen in the movies the dress code so different that you know who is the friend and who is the enemy. The fighters flying from the south to the North West over the Afghanistan knowing the English were here should have been more careful. What I read is “In the friendly fight three English soldiers died".
How come this overlook has no apology from America?
I thank you

We live in the world where everyone is asked to judge between good and bad, they say his evil, he says their evil. So i say surely good and evil should be judged by actions.
50 years is long enough for a pattern of behaviour to emerge which is consistant with the personality of a nation. And i think the answer to this question can shed some light on who the bad guy is

Calling American and British troops brave and given them medals for their crimes in foreign lands can be analysed through this example. I BREAK INTO YOUR HOUSE WITH A MACHINE GUN, YOU FIGHT BACK WITH A ROCK, I CALL BACKUP WHO DROP A BOMB FROM THE SKY, I AM THEN GIVEN A MEDAL AND CALLED BRAVE WHILE YOU ARE THE DEMONIZED COWARD, HOW SCREWED UP IS THAT???

What would you do if your teenage daughter was touched sexually, and talked to sexually, by an NCO in the Army and when you turned that soldier in, and he was moved into the barracks pending a full investigation, his family began mercilessly threatening and harassing your daughter. The whole post claims to NOT be able to stop a civilian from harassing/verbally attacking your kids. Is there no way to protect a victim from being further victimized? Is there any way to be able to protect yourself while your husband is deployed?

My oldest son who just turned 18, wants to join the military..Problem is, he has bi polar and has a charge of criminal mischief on his record where he is on a diversion program through the courts.. would those 2 things right there disqualify him from joining?... I think he would be perfect for the military...When he is in a very structured and stricter enviorment, he does great and seems alot more happier and focused... Also what issues could disqualify a person from being able to join the military?

I've always heard from people who experience the time of Pearl Harbor that Don Ho was a spy for the Japs, helping with the sneak attack. This seems to have persisted for years. Anyone else hear their parents or grandparents mention this about Ho?

some military people have to make their living with under $20,000/yr.......the life style is already difficult with all the constant training and being away from there family....and also the physical effort you have to make......the physical damage a soldier recieves from wearing all that body armor........i know people who go overseas in perfectly good health and comeback with ten years of body damage.....bad ankles, knees, back pain, joints pain, chest pains.....and some times on the financial side they live paycheck to paycheck......not always because of their money management problems but because of the needs of their life and family
