Go tell someone else your contractor war stories. Stop f'ing bragging, you sound like a Zapata a'hole.
LOL...I spent more time over there than most troops!
I went to more places that did most troops...and I was unarmed!
And I was just a pogue! And I outranked most of the military there with my GS rating. How do you like that?
For some reason, the Navy, the USAF and the Army were all easy to deal with. But the USMC seemed to be extremely fixated on our paychecks and civilian status. Yep, they were jealous of us and resented us greatly.
Seems like you do too. lol...too bad.
(at least I have my identity from my own exploits, not my son's or my father's or my spouse's)
