I see by your Home Page that you have utter contempt for “REMFs.” Only a fool would make such a claim. Because without REMFs, blowhards would walk into battle in their underwear, unfed, unarmed, and unsupported. But, they can beat their chests and roar; and their enemy will laugh at them. Then kill them.
Every person in the military has a role, and all them contribute to the success of the mission. But, the vast majority are seldom if ever recognized or appreciated. It’s ironic, because these “heroes” treated the so-called REMFs with the same contempt the unwashed and surly “protesters” treated THEM, and the REMFs, as well (those protestors made no distinction: All they saw was the uniform).
Unless you were Audie Murphy, spare me your heroics.
REMF refers to people who are gung-ho but never get to the Front themselves. The people who shout about how important it is to fight, but never seem to show up themselves. Not the support guys in general.
Never claimed to be Audie Murphy. Just someone who showed up. Nice try.
