Was that you or NewLand that pinged a set of your buddies to help you bully me around?

I will not return for any more of your drooling over Lindbergh

Well forget Lindbergh and follow the link and read about Guy Gabaldon from Los Angeles, who single handedly captured 1500 Japanese on Siapan. He won a silver star for his bravery, but it certianly should be a Congressional Medal of Honor.

Had Gabaldon's experience been just one occasion, you could write it off as a fluke. But he brought in large numbers of prisoners on multiple occasions. One time leading 800 Japanese soldiers and civilians, many still armed that could have killed him with one shot.

Gabaldon's experience demonstrates that it was true that the Japanese normally refused to surrender. It's just that no one bothers to tell you that the reason is because we refused to let them. Gabaldon spoke a tattering of Japanese and could convince them that he would not kill them, whereupon they immediatly surrendered.

I asked you not to ping me again, narby.

You have had your chance to prove your case, and you have failed miserably.

Now leave me out of your paranoid, self-pitying, Lindbergh worshiping, revisionist history nonsense.

DO NOT ping me again.
