It's Beer-Thirty out here, and time to party!
Happy Friday, Pippin.
Here's hoping all your accidents are behind you. Enjoy your BBQ, and safe passage to the Home Detachment.
Good to see you again, AF. Has the summer been treating you well?
You know, I wondered about last night when the only one from the picture that appeared on stage was Skip Barber. Who were the others -- or more to the point, how did they actually know Kerry? Did they actually serve with him in some capacity, or have they met him later and just happened to be VietNam vets? Or maybe a hey pal, I'll give you a quick $1000 to stand on stage with me and pretend to like me??
Yes! I would love to dance with you. Thank you sir. :)
Nah, they don't come around here anymore...
Says it all . . . dosen't it??? . . . . ;-)
Dilated already!!! So how soon do you think Baby Jeff will be born?
Angel Boy.....#150!!
Pfc Womack and Pfc Young
The ones in the photo were officers only.
I couldn't watch last night (I watched TV Land instead)
The other people were enlisted.
Ok, so does that mean they could actually have served under him I take it?
I think there were 3 who actually served with him.
ALL 3 paid by the dims according to Swift Boat Vets AGAINST Kerry
I told hubby last night when they were introduced that I would bet the majority did NOT serve WITH him in Vietnam. I KNEW it. Thanks for the info!! And I was mostly joking about the pay, but it doesn't surprise me at ALL!!
. . . .so . . . we'll meet you on the beach.
...............heheheheheheheheheheheheehe...........
Think it's funny do you?? My computer stalled out before the last post or it would have been mine.
American soldiers inspect the site of a mortar attack in an Iraqi home located near an American base in the Al Utaifyah neighborhood, central Baghdad, Iraq Friday July 30, 2004. There were no injuries reported from the blast.
Join the army and become a pilot. Yeah, pick that up and pile it over there.
Iraqi boys play near US soldiers on a tank preparing for a routine security check at a bridge in central Baghdad.
The new Super Mario Brothers theme park in Baghdad is quite popular when the Troops are looking for some R & R!

Soldiers secure the site on a highway leading from Baghdad to the international airport where a Bradley tank lies on its side as they await the vehicles removal on Thursday. The accident was caused by a traction problem, and no injuries were reported. MoJo's recent accident has continued to astound local rubberneckers!

A Vietnamese sailor, left, tries to block the ball after it was spiked by a U.S. sailor during a friendly volleyball match between teams from Vietnam's Navy and sailors from the guided missile destroyer Curtis Wilbur in Danang, Vietnam, on Friday. The arrival of the Curtis Wilbur marked only the second time a U.S. vessel has made a port call in the country since the end of the Vietnam War.
Yeah, and the Viet Nam sailors are submariners who as every lover of the game realizes are very difficult to defend against in Volley Ball.
An anti-ballistic missile, under development by the United States and Israel, lifts off from the Point Mugu Sea Range off the coast of California on Thursday. The missile intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile during the test designed to demonstrate the Arrow system's improved performance against a target that represents a threat to Israel.
Gee, I sure hope that the terrorists do not find out about this new innovative technology. We would not want to cramp their style!

Michael Mancuso, top, of Long Island, N.Y., flies his Klein Tools Extra 300L aerobatic plane upside down as Matt Chapman, of Kennett Square, Pa., flies his CAP 580 aerobatic plane over Lake Butte des Morts, near Oshkosh, Wis., on Wednesday as part of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Air-Venture air show. The EAA convention continues at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh through Aug. 2. Mojo2001 is the pilot and Tomkow6 did the paint job! Nuff said!

One of two pararescuemen from the 38th Rescue Squadron at Moody Air Force Base, Ga., prepares to follow an inflatable boat out the back of an HC-130 aircraft flying over the Atlantic Ocean on July 23 in order to provide medical support to a Chinese fisherman who had sustained a life-threatening chest injury the day before. Those Navy guys sure like to show off. Heck, everyone knows that anyone can jump out of an airplane over an ocean in the middle of nowhere!

A pararescueman from the 38th Rescue Squadron at Moody Air Force Base, Ga., jumps from the back of an HC-130 aircraft flying over the Atlantic Ocean during a rescue mission 350 miles northeast of the Caribbean island of St. Maarten on July 23. He and another pararescueman provided medical support to a Chinese fisherman who had sustained a life-threatening chest injury the day before. The new experimental Flying Frog Suit has been going through some extensive testing!

Soldiers from the 25th Infantry Division assigned to the Joint Logistics Command in Bagram, Afghanistan, prepare a vehicle to be sling-loaded by a Chinook helicopter on July 24. The soldiers are deployed to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Ice cream banana boats in Iraq sure hit the spot, and entrepreneurs have been very clever in designing the new delivery trucks!

Army staff officers move to the tactical operations center during Exercise Bulwark 04 in Bulgaria on Thursday. The exercise, sponsored by U.S. Army Europe, involves more than 900 soldiers from the Illinois National Guard who are training on light infantry and urban warfare tactics with members of the Bulgarian military. The "Light Infantry" are the only known unit to bring their own rainbows with them for training purposes.

Yeoman 1st Class Juan Piper helps his son up a rock wall at Smokey Point Naval Support Complex, near Everett Naval Station, Wash., during the first phase of the Drug Education for Youth (DEFY) program on Tuesday. DEFY is sponsored by the Department of Defense for children between the ages of 5 and 12 who have an active-duty deployed parent.
On a personal note, I have been training on a rock floor and hopeful that I might someday be able to actually move up to climbing rock walls.

Vietnamese sailors watch a friendly volleyball match between their compatriots and American sailors from the guided missile destroyer Curtis Wilbur in Danang, Vietnam, on Friday. The Vietnamese team defeated the Americans 2-1. The game was real friendly until the other guys started getting the officials to make biased calls. |

Staff Sgt. Stephen Miller, center, with the New Mexico National Guard, checks the identification of a motorist at the entrance to Holloman Air Force Base, N.M., on Thursday as Airman 1st Class Cory Ridley, left, and Senior Airman Ricardo Castro, right, stand by. I am sorry but this license indicates that you are required to wear spectacles, and I do not care about the fact that you have contacts because in this business personal affiliations are not necessarily conducive to public safety. |

Secretary of State Colin Powell greets U.S. troops Friday at the Embassy Annex in Baghdads Green Zone. Powell made a surprise visit to the Green Zone to thank embassy staff and coalition members for their hard work in rebuilding Iraq's infrastructure and political system. If you use that joy buzzer one more time, I'll have you transferred to the most remote outpost that we have. Does Antarctica sound appealing to you? |
Just another day at the office for our Troops.
