Free Republic Military?

Posted on 05/16/2005 8:38:26 AM PDT by Guard Dog

I just read a post on conservative blog that stated few freepers were veterans (implication was that we were chicken hawks). Having conversed with many of you and met a few, I do not believe that is the case. But it did get me wondering, who among us is active or prior service veterans? Awright you freeper vets SOUND OFF!

I'll get the ball rolling. I had the honor and privilidge to serve in the USMC from 89-94. It was a great experience and made me who I am today.

I've sung "Onward Christian Soliders" at church plenty of times. Does that count for anything? :-)
