DO NOT POST ANY MILITARY INFORMATION YOU HAVE
It is imperative during this time period that no one and I mean no one post any information they have about our military except to report on the crash of the plane at the Pentagon. There have been several postings tonight giving information about bases near where they live -- please do not discuss your local bases on the open forum. Use freeper mail to people you know.
Our men and women of the Armed Forces will most likely be put in harm's way soon enough without our telling people what is going on in our areas. Please think before you post. Whether a strike is in the near future or six months away, keep your mouths shut about military activities in your area that are not already in the press.
Thank you much!
God Bless our military, our President, and the United States of America!
WITH REGARDS TO THE BALKANS, NO WAY!!!
ANY NATO MILITARY ACTIVITY OTHER THAN FOR THE BALKANS WILL BE NOTED, NOT POSTED!!!
I'm not advocating playing "forum master" here, I'm just saying that a heads-up to the moderators might save lives. Let the moderators know, and let them make the call...
Classified bump. Agreed, we need to keep our eyes open and our mouths shut right now. Most posters who post such information are doing it harmlessly and out of the curiosity and excitement of the moment; but such posts could endanger investigations and lives. Remember, most freepers would never do anything to harm our servicemen and women, or those who are investigating this heinous crime. Rather than flaming the poster (and leaving the potentially damaging post up longer) we need to make the moderators aware of any blatantly dangerous posts.

Amen, my friend. You're also right on the money about our ridiculous immigration policy, too.
This happened during Panama, the Gulf War, Somalia and even Kosovo. And it really is nerve wracking to find out what you are doing is in the news. For the love of this country and for those of us wearing the uniform; please, do not give out details of what you see or hear about movements at military installations. Do not discuss how you "know someone, who knows someone in the military and they say..."
Just know that the anger permeating throughout the military is deep but it isn't running hot with emotion. It is running cold with the foreknowledge that there will be a day when this will be avenged.
And I kid you not, we will avenge this.

Well said. I agree with you 1000%.

Very well stated and we support you 100%. The men and women of our Armed Forces are our greatest asset because you all care so much about what you do! God Bless to all of you that wear the uniform today and those of you that have worn the uniform in the past! All I can say is "Thanks" from this Grateful American!
