Operation Take One For The Country (Girls to give it to GI's)

Operation Take One For The Country ^ | April 04 | TOFTC

[Long Cut]

Oh, the stories I could tell.

I've seen females returning from deployments practically attack their signifigant others in the parking lot.

I've also seen some, after a few month's stress and craziness overseas, disregard completely everything their mamas ever taught them.

I saw one girl, on deployment, work her way through nearly every shop in the squadron except her own...she figured that would be unproffessional. Go figure.

Dietrich was a Prussian. She got her start in Show Biz in the decadence of Wiemar Berlin. She was also notoriously bi-sexual.

The P-3 ORION also does feet-dry surveillance and reconnaisance. Several of ours avoided SAMS over Iraq last year. We also patrolled shipping lanes searching for terr ships smuggling weapons in the Middle East. They can carry SAMs as well. We did quite a lot of stuff that was unhealthy, and most of it we did completely unarmed and without fighter cover ourselves.

I've also done two deployments with combat flights over such lovely spots as Bosnia and Kosovo. You know, where they shot down a stealth fighter?

[novalogic]

whoa, That girl can have pity on me anytime :)

[Darksheare]

I don't doubt it at all.
Saw similar things to a MUCH lesser extent during annual training at Drum.

It's kinda obvious what's going on when two male officers and one female enlisted enter an empty room together and leave their boots outside the door, with the door locked.
Yeah, we stole their boots.

[novalogic]

from the site:
A great idea from Shellie A., wife of Lt. A of Ft. Rucker. She is calling on wives of servicemen to have 'Felatio Friday' at least once a month. Awesome awesome idea.

...gonna have to remind my wife that us "homefront patriots" do our part also :)

while I've known Sailors who were comitted Christians and scrupulously moral in all they did (all two of them),

It's the truly committed Christian who holds you up in prayer while he sees your plane leave the flight deck or tarmac. Long after your glory days have passed and your body is frail and no one but you remembers what you did, that committed Christian you spoke of will still be praying for his fellow man, carrying on the good fight.

It's wrong to equate vulgar and crude behavior with toughness. If you've seen 'The Passion of the Christ' you know what I mean.

>My Dad was a WWII vet. He told me that there was a similar phenomenon in that era, and that the ladies in question were called "Victory Girls".

Some girls used to target GIs who were in combat outfits for marriage before they went overseas hoping they would get bumped off because the next of kin would get $10,000 survivor's benefit. In the 1940's that was big bucks. You could buy a house and have money left over. Parents became very upset over this phenomenon because they felt they should have the money and they would have too if it weren't for a morbid gold digger muscling in.

LOL!! Okay, but first go get married to a nice girl... "Yeah, yeah. Bla-bla-bla."

I like your slogan better. Reminds me of a commedian who told a gut-wrenching story about when he came back from Vietnam. When he got off the plane, a young woman ran up to him and called him a "baby killer." The commedian played it WAY up until the audience was almost in tears. "What kind of country..." and "Was that what I was fighting for" he asked? "So," he continued, "I did the only thing I could do."

I shot her.

Best regards to your Aircrew, Long Cut!

[E.G.C.]

BTTT!!!!!!

[TXBSAFH]

Agreed, remember when I was 21 in Gulf War 1.

[Igraine]

Marlene Dietrich was the biggest movie star in Germany and had she chosen to she could have stayed in Germany and hobnobbed with the Nazi elite all she wanted. Instead, she chose to emigrate and work for the allied war effort.

[Long Cut]

Thanks, Linda. I gotta run now, the galley just opened, and then it's off to the gym for some PT. Back in a couple hours.

[vanmorrison]

I certainly admire Marlene. But the radio encryption technology (based on Frequency Shift Spread Spectrum) you're describing was actually patented by Hedy Lamarr, another Austrian babe.

How come all we get from Hollywood today are harridans, like Susan Sarandon, Cybill Shephard, and Barbra Streisand?

[Darksheare]

Bombarded with hellfire and brimstone?
I salute you for your efforts, my sympathies for the lambastings, and my apologies for them even though they weren't mine to commit.

Do It for Our Country

Music & Lyrics: Rob Hegel

America is calling, let's care enough to give our very best.
For if we give our very best,
I know that we will more than pass the test.
If I could have three wishes, I'd wish that you'd live free,
I'd wish for amber waves of grain from sea to shining sea.

Yeah, let's do it for our country, the red, white, and the blue.
It's Uncle Sam who's asking, so your mother will approve.
Tomorrow I'll be fighting, and I'll win this war for you.
Let's do it for our country, our country wants us to.

Bullets are exploding, they'll soon be at the door,
Give something to America you never gave before.
Yeah, let's do it for our country, the red, white, and the blue,
If the President were standin' here, I'm sure he would approve.
I'll be a mighty soldier before this night is through.
Let's do it for our country, our country wants us to.

(Spoken)
Just think about it -- it would be like as if we were doing it for the Statue of Liberty, or the Grand Canyon, or the New York Yankees... it would be like as if we were doing it for... Disneyland!

Yeah, let's do it for our country, the red, white, and the blue,
It's not a lot to ask of us, our parents will approve.
Tomorrow I'll be fighting, and I'll win this war for you.
Let's do it for our country, (spoken) we owe it to our country.
Let's do it for our country, our country wants us to.

Linda said: Because there are those who have bombarded this heathen with hellfire and brimstone because of a few photos of scantily clad women posted to amuse our brave soldiers in arms.

From Darsheare:I salute you for your efforts, my sympathies for the lambastings, and my apologies for them even though they weren't mine to commit.

Yes, there is a small, noisy group on FR that thinks that every soldier, sailor, and airman are also monks who recoil in horror at the thought of a naked woman. They also believe that these same brave souls fighting out there never do or never should have a sexual thought at all, unless it is in context to their eventual wives that they will meet.

[Bella_Bru]

Isn't that from Grease 2.?

[O.C. - Old Cracker]

Most people are followers, Long Cut, but the committed Christian can't and most of the time, won't indulge in typical group behavior. For a lot of these folks it was likely their first time away from home for any extended period. Without a real grounding in God's word it is hard not to join the crowd. The pressure can be intense, and sometimes threats of intimidation are employed. But the truly committed Christian will be unmoved, because he or she would rather suffer persecution than bring dishonor to the name of their Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

The type of toughness required for combat demands physical discipline, but an even greater degree of mental hardness, as the Army Rangers teaches a man. This echoes the teaching of the Apostle Paul where he discusses what is needed to do battle in the spiritual realm. But there we don't rely on ourselves, but on the one true Champion, Jesus Christ, to stand in the gap and fight for us.
