Double Tap

My E-mail inbox

[Responsibility2nd]

My somewhat liberal brother e-mailed this to me without comment. And with no source link.

I googled "Double Tap" but could find no matches.

Is your brother now a conservative???

[Responsibility2nd]

Nope. A true dumocrat. Says he supports the troops, but not their mission.

I received this email a month ago. In my time you did what you had to do, the gooks booby trapped the dead and wounded, it was a move you loose situation on many occasions.

Geee

‘thanks’ traitors in chief Billdo Dilldo and Jimmuh Peaunt Brainless Cartuh . . . . gloabalist stooges, etc.

ignorant arrogance gone to seed.

It sounds false to me, line troops are being told to finish off the wounded?

At one time I was in a unit that was advised to make sure that everyone was dead, but that was a small team that had no resources or connections to support.

[Luke Skyfreeper]

Then he doesn’t support the troops.

[mad_as_he$$]

Two in the chest, one in the head, shoot that f’er till he’s dead.

[Old Sarge]

If you are a veteran, then everything I have just written is self-evident.

Sounds good to this veteran...

[REDWOOD99]

I hope it’s true. It needs to be accurate, at least.

This was inevitable given the grief our military gets on Gitmo detention and on treatment of wounded. Kill ‘em and there is no story for the media to beat up the USA about.

[Parley Baer]

This veteran has no problem with it.

[ClidePenbroke]

Geez, when werever I practiced shooting when I was a Police Officer, I always did the Double Tap.

And most of the other Officers that I know of did to.

Of course now most of the things they taught us is considered Cruel and Unusual Punishment. :8^)

Thanks. I knew there would be sources.

I would love to see this get more exposure. Which would - I imagine - cause liberals to wet themselves in fits of apoplexy.

[Kozak]

Ditto. About damn time and instruct tha Army to do likewise.

A guy I served with (John) in the Marine Corps Reserve had been in a combined action platoon (CAP) in Vietnam. This was a platoon of American Marines teamed up with South Vietnamese troops who went around building basketball courts, schools, playgrounds, etc., all of which never lasted very long once they left the area.

Anyway, one day this CAP was overrun by an NVA unit, and after a firefight the CAP survivors laid sprawled in the mud (mostly face down as far as they could get and still breathe) and pretended to be dead. An officer with the NVA unit then began to put bullets in their heads, one by one. His pistol was pointed at the head of the Marine laying next to John when the sound of American gunships (choppers) filled the air and the NVA soldiers instantly took off like scared mice.

Much later in Saigon, John met up with the Marine who was about to take a bullet (his name was “Ski”) and John said he barely recognized Ski because his hair was white as snow.
