I know how well schooled you are in military strategy but I still thought you might like to read this from one of your right wing web sites.

pull out now and get them to pay us back? if it were that easy....

what is with the left and surrendering when things get tough? do we really need a scar like vietnam? are you prepared to swallow the rep our nation will get after pulling out? are you willing to accept the fallen in vein? are you willing to accept the fact that terrorists worldwide will be emboldened by our retreat? are any of these something you consider or is just waving the white flag the easiest solution to comprehend?

The scar of Vietnam was the realization of our own stupidity for getting involved with that mess in the first place and sticking with it for so long. People with your view continually pick the scab.

i would actually agree with you that we shouldnt have entered that war. but, if you do than you fight to win. the intention was good, but politicians brought about defeat. politicians brought that scare onto this nation, not the military or their lack of competence

people like me pick the scab? why because i bring it up? its the left in this nation that compares every single solitary conflict to vietnam and uses it to smear the nation to the world. it was people like teddy that said iraq was bush's vietnam. do i need to keep going or do you finally get the point? get a grip would ya

The only point I get is that you can't get over our failure in Vietnam and you view every unnecessary conflict we mindlessly enter as some sort of do-over to make up for that failure. Maybe you should take a closer look at what's in the koolaid old Ollie North is feeding to you.

I just love your dumb know everything but refuse to back it up posts, they make my day.

Year + is not of this day and age as you say. I spent two tours in Viet Nam. This is nothing NEW. 13 months in Korea, where did you find that this was of this day and age?

You are so dated and do not currently have your facts correct.

Re read my post....high demand/low density in the combat support and a couple like medical in combat service support branches, ie medical are pulling longer than 12 month deployments and all by exception.

And nothing has changed for Korea. Still a 13 month tour with a 30 day R&R in the middle, if unaccompanied. 24 months if family goes with you! Where you in the Korean War or just a regular 13 month tour in Korea?

I will explain later where I get my facts. Just don't have any time to waste right now.

Maybe once well schooled, however I believe currently an Outdated military strategist (if ever a real one). One has to live in the current world or work in the current world of the military to stay up to date as a military strategist. You can't learn it by reading the newspapers, watching the tv, and surfing the internet.

My facts were on the ground and in the air in both theaters. As for today’s facts, my own Son is in Iraq ready to hit his third tour, please go ahead, and Help me with the facts.
I have the time.
Oh and I was not commenting on your above post it was scooters the one above it. The quote did not work for some reason. But I am still willing to take the time to hear (See) your facts.
Jack

PS: My point to scooter was simply where did he/she get it was only in THIS DAY AND AGE. It has been status quo in my lifetime. And for a little history since many of you have no idea, Men spent years (The entire WAR for some) overseas during the wars, WWII and WWI. So things have improved.

You still didn't answer whether you were a Korean War veteran or just had a 13 month tour in Korea. I understand that you were stationed in two theaters.

Sorry thought you were coming back with the facts? If that were the case you would know that Korea and Thailand were both support countries to Viet Nam. Also I served in two branches of the Armed forces, I will also further explain I am old but not that old to serve in the two conflicts. I served in Viet Nam. Spent time in Thailand Korea and the Philippines as well as Japan. Now hopefully you can help me with these facts?

And somewhere while doing this, what does my service to our country have to do with your facts?
