Re: AW: How to Prepare for a Deployment to Iraq
Mr. Schoenhofe,
First I will not take any crap from anyone on any list.
Second, i am not just a nuclear physicist but also a
retired US Army Officer. Third, there are many military
both active, former and retired from many countries on
this list, all of which understand what the writers of
this message were saying. While my politics is my
business and none of your, of which it may just
surprise you on how I stand on the current US policy.
While soldiers in a free society who take their orders
from civilians have very little to do with the politics
of war except to live with the scars of it for the rest
of their lives and that is if they survive it ( Enjoy
your safety). I have made no insults to other nationals
on this list or any other list and take offense to you
and your insults. You Europeans as you state, better
get a real handle on what you believe "WE AMERICANS"
really stand for besides the crap you hear in the media
and the propaganda of your own media outlets.
Lastly, I am NOT ASHAMED of who I am, what I stand for,
the combat and HUMANITARIAN missions i have
participated in and I am NOT ashamed that I served with
the United States Military.
Apparently, "WE AMERICANS" are only good when we act as
a surrogate for the European Community.
My post stand as is. In the words of a famous US
General who once said "NUTS"!
