LOL. I bet those would be some great stories!

Thanks DD, it was interesting to me as I sure it will be to other readers. ;-)

Sorry to get back to this so late.
Yeah, I can't imagine him as a Powerpoint Ranger.
Just not conducive to good troop morale to reduce everything down to a PPS slide presentation.

Sam brought up the basic 'gist' of what war is all about: Go in and kill the other guy as quickly as pssible.
Gen Moore had it right.

What SECRET does he hide in his military records?

Well if the public is ever going to know, aliens will have to broadcast the truth from space. The lamestream media will never report it.

Hi, PE. Still getting enough sleep? The Schwann's man just had a new baby--er his wife did--and we were teasing him about sleepless nights. I told him to point the kid's head at the moon. He now thinks I'm nuts. LOL

Evening Samwise.

Never heard the "point the head towards the Moon" thing.

Fight at Ia Drang by John A. Cash

TRANSPORT HELICOPTERS LANDING INFANTRYMEN

Soldiers Laying Down Covering Fire With M60

Some problems have arisen due to recidivism of Gitmo detainees released from insufficient altitude.

Effective this date detainees are to be released from altitude sufficient for a) full-throated scream, and b) satisfying thump.

Evening Phil Dragoo.

Some times I wonder if we ever learn our lesson.

Thanks for the links.

In my opinion we didn't need gitmo. Waste of time and money when we should have just wasted them.
