No I didn’t.

Never said I did.

But that comment just goes to show, now, that not only are you a miserable human, you’re a moron as well

Because I’d be willing to bet anything that Col Howard would never make as ignorant a statement as you did.

Howard would agree that the first two SF teams did things right. He would not like supplies driven in on roads. Fly them in. SGM Waugh was CIA on the ground to meet the first team.

You’ve got quite a trash mouth. You mention names like Bob Howard, who would never associate with anyone like you. I suggest you read the guidance on this site before you post anymore comments.

I suggest you don’t like comparing the methods and SOPs, in an attempt to make yourself sound like something you’re not.

You’re so selfish that you can’t look at what as a$$ you are and the stupidity and arrogance in your original statement.

You’re a clown. But one whose background or pedigree cannot be verified. You were in those different groups. Really? No way of knowing whether that’s true or not. I didn’t think guys in Group moved around that much. Thought once you got to a group, you pretty much stayed there.

For all I know you could have been in supply or a diesel mechanic.

I’ve dealt with many guys in SF. Some with quite the chip on their shoulders, some as laid back as a person could get.

I’ll say it loudly……BUT NOT ONE WOULD EVER COMPARE ONE WAR TO ANOTHER, NOR THE METHODS IN WHICH THEY WERE FOUGHT. NONE WOULD LOOK DOWN THEIR NOSES OR MAKE SNIDE COMMENTS, WHEN THERE HAVE BEEN SOLDIER AND MARINES WHO ARE DEAD OR LOST THEIR LEGS, WALKING FOOT PATROLS WHILE WALKING TO, THROUGH AND FROM AFGHANI VILLAGES, AFTER STEPPING ON PRESSURE PLATES OR GETTING HIT WITH IEDs

And again, I never met Col Howard. Likely you haven’t either. But in can guarantee he wouldn’t make such a disgusting comment like you did toward those that have been serving in Iraq or Afghanistan.

Look at two first SF teams in Afgan. https://www.defensemedianetwork.com/stories/operation-enduring-freedom-the-first-49-days-5/

That is how you fight the Afghans. Those men who crossed the Iraq border did not know squad tactics. Our military has been
trashed.

I can read Horse Soldiers and watch 12 Strong, too. Actually met and spent some time with the Team Leader and a couple of his teammates. Not a one of them was a condescending a$$hole like you. They didn’t look down their noses at anyone.

But, Two different missions. Can’t compare the two.

First one extremely effective. The Taliban and Al Queda were dealt with.

The second one was a different mission that required kids to drive and walk around. And then the insurgency started and they started dying.

But you’re a hard charging snake eater that knows better, right? That thinks those kids didn’t do sh*t., right?

Again. Again. Again. Again

YOU FAIL TO RECOGNIZE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THE ARROGANT, STUPID AND CONDESCENDING STATEMENT YOU MADE THAT STARTED THIS.

YOU ARE AN IDIOT.

Good Lord. GO AWAY.

Tactics have killed more then real combat. The enemy knows to watch the roads. The Army has been a mech joke since 73. Face reality.

You’re obsessed.

As I’ve stated repeatedly.....YOU’RE A CONDESCENDING, D-BAG. YOU’RE DUMB. YOU’RE ARROGANT.

I DO NOT CARE WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT ANYTHING.

AGAIN, YOU’RE THE GUY AT THE AMERICAN LEGION OR VFW THAT NO ONE LIKES. EVERY CONVERSATION IS....THERE I WAS. KNEE DEEP IN BRASS. SLUGGIN IT OUT WITH CHARLIE

NO ONE CARES.

GO STARE AT YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR. PICK OUT THE CLEANEST “HEY EVERYONE I’M A VETERAN. LOOK AT ME. KISS MY A$$. THANK ME FOR MY SERVICE” SHIRT AND HAT YOU HAVE. GET IN YOUR VEHICLE ADORNED WITH ALL YOUR STICKERS AND DRIVE AROUND TOWN, BEING THE MISERABLE PERSON YOU ARE.

You’re the one you describe. I do not go to the VFW or AL.
I go to SOAR if my health permits. I don’t go to the SFA in Clarksville.

Biden & Harris are COMPLETELY INCOMPETENT. They OWN THIS MASSIVE DEBACLE in Afghanistan. And every other naive liberal Democrat who voted for these CLOWNS also OWN THIS MASSIVE DEBACLE. I spent a year of my life there and to see 20 years of work, trillions of dollars, 2500 US Military brothers and sisters killed there - all destroyed by these IDIOTS in a few days. Thousands of Afghan women and children will be raped and murdered because of their ABJECT STUPIDITY. They gave up Bagram AFB, released 6-7K Taliban prisoners (we’ll have to fight again elsewhere), 10-40K Americans are left behind, along with thousands more Afghans who helped us in the fight. This all makes me very angry.
