Hi Yahoo,

Just a quick question, does the Commander of the United States Strategic Command have to be of United States Air Force Officer origins or is the position open to the other branches? Same thing with North American Aerospace Defense Command. ( That one seems a bit obvious, hence the title).

I recently learned about a man who received a check from the VA for his military service. He had been out of the military nearly 40 years, but the check was retroactive for 19 years, which is the maximum. He now receives a monthly check.
I have 2 brothers who were in Viet Nam. One was wounded and received a Purple Heart. The other was a gunner on a helicopter. Both saw ungodly horrors.
What is this money that I have been told they are entitled to and what do we have to do to get it?

At the Quick Cash today I had to sign a waiver stating I am not an active member of the armed forces. I asked what was going on and the clerk said they will be forbidden by law to give out loans to such people starting in October. Why is this? What law, and why was this law passed?

I'm wondering, because I've been feeling like the Army is my calling for a long time..Like since I was 13.
I'm now 17 and seriously considering enlisting shortly after my 18th birthday.
My cousin was in the USMC, and he said that he thinks it's smart for me to go into the Army if I feel strongly that I want to enlist in the Military.
He warned me that, even if I go into the Reserves, I'll probably be called to active duty shortly, and I'll have to go to the Middle East, most likely.
So, do you think that the Army is a good branch for me to go into?

This question might seem odd but it does seem the world is heading this way , hence the question .

If there was a war between Christianity and Islam , which side would you be on ? Which side would Judaism be on ? What about Buddhists ? And finally - Who would win ?

Amongst us all, i'm sure we agree that the men and woman in harm's way are heroes and deserve at the very least to have the full support of their nation behind them while they are in harm's way. I know this is America, and we are lucky enough to live in a democracy where people can say what they want to say. However, that does not give them the right to expect they will not be held accountable for their statements. So with that being said, do any of them stop to think just for a second that some of their redderick is poison that the soldiers do not want to hear? I'm pretty sure the soldiers do not want to hear that they are in Iraq because they are not smart enouigh to have done anything else with their lives, or that they have been compared to Nazi's. Pro or anti war, it is the duty of our great nation to seperate thoughts of the president from negative comments towards the military, who protect the rights of ALL loudmouth political figures to say these types of things.

Just wondering as the US President and his huge entourage visit our beautiful city, why should we tolerate unemployed, long haired or "sheltered" University student protesters ?

As our equin and horse racing industry is in the grip of an Equin Virus, our Police may not be able to be mounted on their horses for crowd control ! So what would work best, firehoses or stun guns ?

WHAT in the world could Yahoo's censors have been thinking when they did this, in this group?! Are they solidly in Bush's back pocket? Does freedom of speech and fairness mean NOTHING to those people? Are they LOSING it?!? My question simply asked THIS --

Bush, whose most notable military service consisted of being AWOL, goes to Iraq to COACH Gen. Patreaus. Par for the course?

Why does this not surprise those of us who deplore our unwitting complicity in the MURDER of over 100,000 innocent Iraqis, and nearly 4,000 of our troops slaughtered as cannon fodder in our Warmonger-in-Thief's dishonest, undeclared, and illegal "war?"

Why is it that people believe everything someone tells them? There is no reason for folding the flag 13 times, for it is actually folded16 times and the US Flag Code does not state a reason, only that it is the way to be folded. There is no sybolism to any of the folds.

There is no 21-gun salute at a funeral. A 21-gun salute is fired by cannon-hence the term gun. A funeral has three rifle volleys consisting of any amount of people, not just seven. Three people is fine. the 21-gun salute is for presidents and dignitaries.

There IS A LAW STATING WHO RECIEVES THE FLAG. The only time a flag does not go to that person is if they want someone else to get it. Check it out-do a google search for a Burial Flag Application...It has the Next-Of-Kin rules right there.

Also, the three rifle casings do not stand for anything, except the three volleys. And according to the flag code, nothing should be put inside the flag, as it is "not a vessel or container."
