With the way this person denigrates our troops, vilifies our country, and seems all too willing to champion the cause of our enemies, I find it easy to believe that he's just another armchair warrior with a big mouth.

After having read several of ERUDITE's questions and answers, I have doubts as to his claims of military service, too. I agree that his attitude really sucks. All I see are complaints, accusations, and lots of speculation, but no positive suggestions as to how things could be better. If he did serve, I'd be willing to bet he got out with an OTH type discharge.

He's a loser and a troll, just looking to justify his sad existence by causing as much hate, controversy, and discontent as he can by posting inane and inflammatory questions in a medium which provides him ultimate protection against personal retaliation. He's nothing more than a sorry little "Keyboard Commando," a useless man who talks big on the internet because no one can reach through the computer monitor screen and punch him in the mouth.
Him and Big Dave both...two peas in the same pod.

I don't know and don't care Erudite and Shiraz are two sides of the same worthless coin and I have long ago stopped answering there questions as all they want is your attention thus the provocative questions they spew. So everyone just ignore such trash and maybe they will go to some other website to push there childish tantrums on someone else.

I don't like the guy any more than you do, but if he is an imposter, I at least have to hand it to him that he's consistent. It's also hard to tell how many of his comments are backed by his own personal opinions or if they're generated to get a response, which they certainly are effective at doing. I do agree that he's one of those people who thrives on the controversy raised by his statements.
Back in April when I joined Y!A and his screen name was still FormerMilitary..., I actually caught a couple questions he answered that were level-headed and almost supportive. It hasn't happend since though.

I believe it. During the 22 years I served I met all kinds of misfits and malcontents. A lot of guys hold all kinds of imaginary grievances against the military. I could easily see him as one of these guys.

IF he served, I'm pretty sure he was that guy who couldn't hack it and was always in trouble...
It's too easy to imagine him being a lower enlisted during his "six years" in the military.

Hell no! Just look at his questions and answers... If he is prior service he has some serious issues of self loathing...
He is an impostor/troll

People like ERUDITE (wonder if he knows what that means) use their first amendment rights just to be a jerk.

He probably pulled so much KP and latrine duty for being a
He is entitled to his opinion however... even if it is wrong, biased, ignorant and baseless.

Regardless of his service or lack of service, many would like to polish their knuckles on his lips.
