Yep, some of us non mil REMFs spend more time outside the wire than do some of the uniformed military.
And some of us non nil REMF types travel the same roads and face the same risks and hazards that the uniformed military does. But most of us are unarmed.
Just so that you know I'm a true weenie that has more than a few miles on the road and in the air in Iraq, I have seen the day to day operations and faced the same frustrations that the troops do. There ain't enough to secure the roads. Just that simple.
But Franks isn't here. And neither are you guys.
What do you guys think about you guys think about spectators that tell the players what they don't need and how they should play the game? Just a wild guess, but I'm guessing that neither of you actually hear what the troops have to say on a day to day basis. Or see their equipment. Or see what happens to it and them.
Apparently I think we can do better and you guys don't. Pretty simple. And remember, I'm just a non-mil REMF, and a weenie to boot!
'Apparently I think we can do better and you guys don't.'
No, you think you KNOW better, there's a difference. Yet you bring nothing to the table but your wanderings. No solutions only bitching. Your empathy for the troop's equipment reminds me of libs who 'support the troops, not the mission'. They have no solutions either nor would they support any, because they would lose the issue as an opportunity to bash the establishment.
'And remember, I'm just a non-mil REMF'
I'll never forget it.
