To answer the question about why this thread was started:
I served four years in the U.S. Air Force from 1996 - 2000. While I didn't serve during a time of war, I am still very proud of the time I spent in and I will always look back on it fondly. I would gladly do it again. Maybe I didn't do anything great, but I did do my little part to give back to this nation that has given all of us so much.

I have to disagree with the first person who posted, he was mad about the Rambo Patriots. I served in the military because I wanted to, it is after all a volunteer military. And maybe because I served, someone else won't have to. I don't look down on anyone who has never served in the military, I served in the military for them, and I was glad to do it. Maybe I sound like a mushy patriotic goober, but oh well, maybe I am one.:river

? I don't get it. I though it was quite evident where the bulk of the discord originated in both threads. I make one reply to a personal attack and suddenly the thread needs closing.

Shugo, Did my basic at Ft Dix when the C-5 was first deployed. They used to come into Mcguire AFB next door and man those suckers were going so slow on their landing approach I thought they were gonna fall out of the sky!!---Ray
