C'mon Dusty! (BTW I agree with your tagline about the CFR 100%!) It's not fairplay to accuse someone about not knowing about what it's like to be in the service and then accuse them about wearing it on their sleeve when they respond by posting their particulars!
It's fine to disagree with someone, but let's keep it civil. (Yes I know it's a case of the pot calling the kettle black...I let a permanant LCPL drag me down...I lost my temper dealing with a shitbird, but can't we all just get along? )

Oh, it's not fa-a-a-a-ir! [sob] I think proclaiming 95 times how one's service to the military makes them an expert does qualify as wearing it on one's sleeve.

So let's see. I've lost count how many names you've called me. And what's this LCPL stuff? Did we finally get someone to help us figure out that maybe Coop did serve for a week or two? How precious. You figured out the service - finally! - but you still need a little help with the rank structure, Doc. And manners... and the UCMJ... and your temper...

Actually, that's not what I said. What I said was they neither they nor I have walked a mile in these kids mocassins. We never faced the possibility of being killed in battle by IEDs or the randomness of a homocide bomber blowing as many people up as he can. Their response was to refer everyone to their profile which rambles on about their combined military experience and having hepatitis C.

My dad and I both have service-connected disabilities, as does my sister (also a navy vet).

Hey, Doc! What happened to that extensive resume you had posted on your profile? (Or should I call it a CV?) Updating it for us? Or something else? [grin]
