Hold on there Airborne. Your on the right site. No ill will was intended. You just touched a topic that has been broached many,many times. Take a breath, calm down and hang out. Your in a tense situation and that can lead to easily ruffled feathers. You won't find a more supportive site of the military, with many, many vets. You may get your chops busted sometimes but it is all in a good natured, teasing sort of way. Having been in the military I am pretty sure you have been subjected to that before. Stick around and go with the local bluegill.
By the way, thanks for serving!
