Good luck have fun!!!
Dont get bored and drink too much like many do.
Get some comfy shades.
Mine have a 25m cannon the 7.62 Machine guns are pretty much the same.
275hp 8wheel or 4wheel drive a bit dented plate on one side.
I dont carry any sidearm :(

Our real heroes that almost die for us are those brave
men on stage, oiled up in their underwear dancing for us
and OD on diuretics.
Remember Tom prince almost died for us he is our true hero.

Instead we should be thanking you right, for all the bullshit you post. Could you imagine how fucked up this place (America) would be if they had more people like you. Afganistan might be a better place to live. We should be thanking you for not being a part of anything important, except of course Getbig.

The argument that "he is going so we don`t have to" is not valid. Nobody has to go. The armed forces are strictly volunteer. Anybody who is there is there by choice. I don`t hear any of you giving plaudits to Crab Fisherman or Electrical workers, or Construction workers. All 3 have a higher death rate per capita by occupation.

Interesting side note:
The founding fathers also did not want a standing army whatsoever after the Revolution. Especially the great Thomas Jefferson. He regarded a standing army as a threat to the people`s own sovereingity and counter-intuitive to everything the Revolution was supposed to fix.

The argument that "he is going so we don`t have to" is not valid. Nobody has to go. The armed forces are strictly volunteer. Anybody who is there is there by choice. I don`t hear any of you giving plaudits to Crab Fisherman or Electrical workers, or Construction workers. All 3 have a higher death rate per capita by occupation.
Interesting side note:
The founding fathers also did not want a standing army whatsoever after the Revolution. Especially the great Thomas Jefferson. He regarded a standing army as a threat to the people`s own sovereingity and counter-intuitive to everything the Revolution was supposed to fix.

The reason we should thank our serviceman is because they did volunteer. If they didn't the draft would come back and flat footed retards like yourself would be forced to apply for conscientious objector status.

Apparently you know nothing of General Dwight D. Eisenhowers Farewell Address regarding the dangers of the rising Military Industrial Complex and how it must be stopped and not let spill over into our society and culture RIGHT at the VERY POINT you refer to in time.

You do have some qualities Alex, History is not one of them. Please Watch and learn:

In his farewell address to the nation after spending 8 years as president, in 1961 Eisenhower warns of a growing danger.

George Bush said that he doesn't care about bin ladin anymore. After all the REAL mission was accomplished

In 2001, George W. Bush said that he wanted Osama bin Laden "dead or alive." In 2002 Bush said "I truly am not that concerned about him." During the third debate with John Kerry, when that second comment was brought up, Bush said "I just don't think I ever said I'm not worried about Osama bin Laden. It's kind of one of those exaggerations."

Josh Marshall provides the full context of Bush's second comment where he expressed his opinion that bin Laden had become irrelevant:

Q But don't you believe that the threat that bin Laden posed won't truly be eliminated until he is found either dead or alive?

THE PRESIDENT: Well, as I say, we haven't heard much from him. And I wouldn't necessarily say he's at the center of any command structure. And, again, I don't know where he is. I -- I'll repeat what I said. I truly am not that concerned about him. I know he is on the run. I was concerned about him, when he had taken over a country. I was concerned about the fact that he was basically running Afghanistan and calling the shots for the Taliban.
