Hooya!!! I sure hope you’ll post regular SITREPs!!

If I read this correctly, you’re going to take a safe job so an 18 year old can go to the front lines. Super. As an infantry vet, I used to see this quite a bit.

The guy is 62 years old. Give him a break. An American isn't going to be a combat troop during a two or three week stint. Not to mention, there are laws concerning American citizens being part of a foreign military involved in combat operations. And then there's the simple fact about a language barrier. Would you want someone who doesn't speak your language and is 62 years old by your side when you find yourself engaged in a firefight?

[Uncle Miltie]

No worries. I didn’t take his post badly. It seems he just wanted to confirm the general facts, which he got right.

[Paul R.]

Ditto!

I can’t say it better...

[Uncle Miltie]

Thanks for the ping list!

[SunkenCiv]

My pleasure!

[PGalt]

Thanks Uncle Miltie for the posts and your service to civilization. Take notes and pics if you can. Looking forward to your return and reports.

Go with God, my FRiend!

If you get a chance, while you are there look up these "good guys" reporting the news from Israel. (They are all Christians.)

Pics are often not allowed on base, so I’m not going to try.

How does one post pics from town (Tel Aviv, Jerusalem)?

I don’t want to sign up for a service if I can avoid it ...

[Uncle Miltie]

Amen.

Thank you.

[PGalt]

That’s what I thought. Forget the pics. Notes if you can. If not, memory. Stay safe FRiend.

[Uncle Miltie]

Boarding now.

Will check in from Newark.

Party on!

[markman46]

[Andy'smom]

Bless you and stay safe!

[Rocco DiPippo]

For three weeks, I'm freeing up an 18-year-old Israeli kid with an M16 to go into Gaza and kill ham ass. I'm 62 and fit, and I can do the warehousing work that a soldier would otherwise have to do, and they can go to the front. Through the magic of transmogrification, I'm on the front lines of the fight for Western Civilization against the savage for 3 weeks.

Good for you Uncle Miltie - you're making us proud. Freeing up a young soldier to fight in this just cause is an amazing gift on your part. That said, YOU need to be careful too. You're in our prayers - stay safe.

[gitmo]

Wow. I wish I was 15 years younger. God bless you.

[PROCON]

Great job, Miltie, God speed.

P.S. if you run into Julie, will you tell her to get back to me about my marriage proposal?
