...entering into the U.S. Army Airborne next year...

Well, good for you.

Perhaps you'll learn something... Like the value of loyalty.

Too bad you're too young and stupid to know better, now...

But don't worry- the Army will turn you into a man, or you'll wash out, and be a perfect candidate for migration to the land of whine and cheese.

And as for actions speaking louder than words, the fact that the frenchies have mastered the diplomatic maneuvers of appeasement and surrender, are obviously lost on your uneducated mind. Or, when we went after Quadaffi in Libya, and they forbade our planes to fly over their airspace, necessitating far longer flights, multiple in-flight refuelings and the inability to support them when trouble arose...

Oh, yeah, they're our friends... They have active terrorist cells in their own country, they're being overrun by Arab immigration, and the crime rates are going up by astronomical numbers... Yet they pretend to not see what is plain.

As the President simply stated, "you're either with America or you're with the terrorists."

At this point, the actions of the French make overtly clear, their position:

They're with the terrorists.

If that doesn't sit with with you...? TOO BAD.

Questions/Observations:

1) What does "U.S. Army Airborne" mean? Which division? Corps? What?

2) How does he know he will be entering "the U.S. Army Airborne?" I mean, when you enlist do they tell you what corps you will be assigned? And if this cheese-eater is entering through ROTC/OCS or an Academy, or enlisting in the service, he would NOT refer to ANY army unit as "U.S. Army Airborne." That's just plain awkward and wrong syntax.

This yahoo may be enlisting (doubful), but if he is, he is dreaming if he thinks he KNOWS what unit he will be assigned. He may have a desired MOS, and may be pre-selected for some sort of training, but no guarantees. And if he knew beforehand what unit he was being assigned, he would say so and NOT refer to it as some namless "U.S. Army Airborne."

I have my doubts about this "man's" allegation.
