Military


Sure Aussie...And were it not for the "bitched assed Americans" you'd talking Japanese right now!

From Roger A Knight, on Fri, 18 Jan 2002 06:56:38 GMT (in response to: proud americans)

Get REAL.....Air power is to be deployed and used as needed. Perhaps it is a simple fact of life that we Americans are not so insecure about our manhood as to have to die to prove it. Yet, we have WON every war that our politicians allowed us to win. I was amember of an R.D.F team in Nam,my particular team specialized in E.I.A operations,most of the time a team of 5 men,out in the middle of nowhere WITHOUT ANY support artillery, or air support. Our radio communications were a last resort, at least till after completion of our mission or an abort. Does that mean that I and my buddies were brave? I personally believe that we were there with a mission to accomplish, and done it to the best of our ability. Was I ever afraid? You bet I was!!!!! And, then again I was an American soldier, I trusted my God,and my country,I overcame my fears,and done the best job I could. The only heroes are those who stayed behind,the rest of us ..Well we are simply Americans, we answered our Nation's call to duty as many before us had done,and many more have since then. But, more important those who will rise in the future to preserve our freedom and way of life. Thats what an American Soldier is, a simple citizen who answers his country's call to arms,we don't look for glory,we do not wish to be heroes, we have nothing to prove to anyone. But rest assured of one thing, Our country we will defend,any time, anywhere,against anyone.
