Being in the US Military would suck so bad.
I'm trying to disrespect the troops or anything. But God Damn that sounds like a shitty job.
Hanging out in a Muslem desert shithole. Killing innocent people all day. The sergeant yelling in your face. Barely any personal freedom.
I'd rather work at McDonalds than put up with all that bullshit.
-
Great respect for the troops that are dedicated to defend their country, for freedom and more. Tough for David Henry and his family and wife, and his goals in competing and other forms of business.
I wish him the best in a tough situation, in which he was ordered to deploy.

??? these guys are dedicated to a pay check

??? these guys are dedicated to a pay check
I agree.
It's sad that the US has reached this point. But we are at the point where the US military is not really doing anything noble or positive. It's just imperialism, murder and corruption.
The US military has become a tool for the billionares to play with. They are sent on $$$ missions under the guise of liberation and fighting terror.
Hard to argue this fact anymore.
Most Military people are pretty cool. But I don't think there's anything really heroic about it these days.

That's right up there with some of the dumbest shit you've ever said, and you've said plenty of dumb shit.

take away the pay check and see how many guys still volunteer lol
most of these guys are sick, they want the oppurtunity to blow shit up and kill people. and they want a good paycheck without having to get an education. so the military is perfect for them

millitary doesnt pay shit dude.
theres a reason you see a shitload of ex vets begging for money on street corners.
if they do 20 years they get their medical paid for, thats about it.
-
Actually it depends what you do... the military can pay quite a bit.
I agree with blackflag. There is nothing noble about the US military any longer. How could there be? It represents the USA, which is a degenerate entity in every way. Note that I'm not saying the rest of the world is any better.

an 18 year old with no education can get a a couple thousand dollars every month, plus signing boonus of about 5-ten thousand dollars, plus they dont have to pay for living costs, and while they are in the service they have the best benefits known to man, and they get schooling paid for if they want it, and access to low interest loans that other people cant get. all of this, when elsewhere the best they are looking at is minimum wage. the military pays damn good when you take all that into account. plus alot of these guys, like i said before, are sick in the head and given the oppurtunity to go out and kill a bunch of people, blow shit up, and play with million or billion dollar toys. its a dream job for these fuckers. and we are supposed to honor them as if they are doing us a great service ::)

Most people who join the US Military come from poor families and live in shitty parts of the U.S. In general, they left situation in which there wasn't much opportunity for them.
A long time ago I was in the same situation. Broke. Stuck in a shitty dead end job. A wage slave. Couldn't find a way out. So I talked to the Marines recruiters. I went in there 3 times and talked to them, but in the end I decided not to do it.
Instead I went through college and graduated. Worked shitty jobs for a while and paid my dues while working for somethign better.
Thank god I didn't join the military. What a shitty decision that would have been. It's a dead end.

Yeah, its a real dream job to risk getting killed ::)
David Henry isn't 18, he's 36. The re-enlistment rate is high, you do the math.

How the fuck do you know?

risk getting killed? these guys are volunteering for the biggest most powerful most advanced military the world has ever seen, with a yearly budget biggger than most countries on the planets entire GDP, and equal to the next 12 biggest militaries on the planet combined. these guys have every advantage possible. most of them have an immortality complex and arent in the leats bit scared of dying. well, maybe once they get over there and start getting shot at. there was alot about this in the news the past few years, because the guys who come back from iraq/afganistan have been dying at alarming rates due to dumbass decisions they make once they get home. taking enormous risks and dying because of it, because they developed that immortality complex after suriving a war.
anyways, im not saying that all military personell are uneducated, sick in the head, eager to kill, overpaid, over compensated nutjobs. just most of em ;D
in all actuallity, there are a ton of guys who join because they want to be part of something biigger than themselves, want o give their life for freedom, want to do something good and honorable. for those guys, and they are a minority, resect is much much overdue and undergiven.

Tbombz speaks the truth.
I don't know why lots of you blindly support the military. What exactly are you guys supporting? So many American people just turn the logic off in their brains and blindly "support the troops" from their armchairs.
Take an objective look at the US military and what it is being used for. It's all shady right now.
These people signing up for the military are just looking for money, some travel and adventure, a change of pace from the rotten and miserable life they live in the US, or sometimes they are blindly patriotic and ignorantly think that they are doing something righteous.

Meet one of our getbiggers. God you're an idiot. Every time I hear a liberal speak or write it make's me sick to my stomach. Tell me, if no one volunteers then who in the fuck is going to protect this country??

Which getbigger is that?
Come on now Coach. The US military is not "protecting the country" right now. Well, some of them are. But most of them are overseas and are just working as tools to stimulate the war economy and extract valuable resources.
They do face some danger over there. And some of them are getting hurt bad. But that doesn't make what they are doing any more noble or righteous.

people volunteer? like people volunteer at homeless shelters and food banks, or like people volunteer at wal mart and blackwater?
soldiers are mercenaries
they are paid to fight, paid to do what their sick minds want to do but would be locked up for doing elswhere, jason pegg huh ??? cant say i really feel any sympathy for him. i mean sure, that really sucks, but some of the comments he has made on this board about his service, glorifying and making light of his killing people in the middle east, calling the people he shot down racial slurs, etc... dont really inspire patriotism or pride in our soldiers.
sadly, most of these guys are sick fucks who are getting paid more than they could get elsewhere in order to live out their fantasy life: go out and get into gun battles where they can kill people and soak up the blood lust glory that their fewllow sick fucks will shed upon them. sad
now you want to see people who are glorious in battle? go to lbya, egypt, bahrain, yemen. these people are fighting, dying, risking their lives for their freedoms, and they arent getting paid shit to do it.

You're a good kid, but sometimes your a fuckin idiot bro.

What did he say that is idiotic? Break it down specifically. I think he is pretty accurate in what he is saying.
-
You're a good kid, but sometimes your a fuckin idiot bro.
nope, jason has said some pretty fucked up things on here about his experience in war. made jokes about killing people. used racial slurs against them. ill see if i can dig them up

I agree with coach. This thread turned into attack of the liberals, oh nevermind liberals aren't armed ;D :D
Good luck david

What does what he said have anything to do with what he sacrificed?
-
What does what he said have anything to do with what he sacrificed?
what he says reflects is intentions, and intentions mean EVERYTHING.
you should know this, your a religious man.
also, being a religious man, you should understand that murder for any cause other than self defense is extremely immoral.
not saying that pegg shot anybody who wasnt shooting at him, but your blind support of military personel is not in line with a religious attitude.
-
No, I don't know this, I try not to judge and definately not going judge that. Neither should you, you don't know what his intensions were when he enlisted...seriously dude, WTF is the matter with you??
-

How do you know his intentions?
Have you ever had a conversation with him where he sat down with you and detailed his intentions on enlisting??
I really hope you're not serious.
-
Funny how you throw religion into this when you're losing a debate. Read the bible bro. We are defending ourselves. Should we not even have a military tbombz? Should we all just be a country of pacifists and not defend when attacted or people wanting to attack?
-
What good intentions could he possibly have?
You go into a third world country and kill a bunch of innocent people, and insurgents who are just trying to defend their land from invaders.
If he seriously thought that he was "fighting terror" or "protecting the US" he would have to be a damn fool. All they do over there is kill, create more terrorists, and fuck the US over in the long run.
They pro-military people in this thread aren't really explaining themselves. Because deep down they know that what i'm saying is true.
-
How about the intension of being pissed off enough to enlist? Younger people usually don't have a wife or kids, from what I've seen and the people I know they marry within.
-
take away the pay check and see how many guys still volunteer lol
most of these guys are sick, they want the oppurtunity to blow shit up and kill people. and they want a good paycheck without having to get an education. so the military is perfect for them
You do realize how stupid you sound with this post, right? The military is an "All Volunteer" force as in it is non-conscription based, right? It isn't volunteering to build a house or do volunteer work at a nursing home.
Jesus, "take away the paycheck and see how many guys still volunteer"....take away the paycheck that any job provides and see how many people still show up. Do you realize how dumb you are exposing yourself to be?
And as for the second "thought" in your post...the ignorance you have displayed is overwhelming. Perhaps you should stick to threads concerning your penchant for getting fucked in the ass, being addicted to cocaine and being a fat-ass.
-

Pissed off enough to enlist?
So you're saying they enlist because they are angry and want to vent their rage on someone?
You're basically verifying what Tbombz said here.
-
Look dude, I know damn well you know what I'm talking about, but incase I'm wrong let me enlighten you. How about being pissed off for having our country attacked, the continuing threats against our country, people that are over here right now planning and plotting to kill our people. If that isn't good enough then I don't know what else to say...no, I'm verifing what an idiot tbombz is.

So basically it's just all about wanting to kill the Muslems?
I hate Muslems too. But still, i'm not heartless enough to want to kill them.
Especially the Muslems in Afghanistan. They didn't do shit to the US. They are mostly just a bunch of poor and humble people who just want to live their own life in their land.
Saudi Arabia is the main center of terror and Muslem fanatisism. That's where all the hardcore asshole Muslems dwell. What we are doing in Afghanistan isn't solving that problem at all, just making it worse. Saudi Arabia is the expansionist, imperialist, powerful and hardline Muslem country that must be dealt with.
If you really mean what you say. You would support pulling out of Afghanistan and bombing Saudi arabia. Do you want to do that? Do you even know anything about these different countries or do you just think all muslems are the same?
-

does "having our country attacked," and do "the continuing threats against our country" really piss you off? do you really feel anger when a bunch of people you don't know get blown up in a building thousands of miles away?
i mean, actual anger? really? ???

The Coach sports a donut goatee and flat bill fitted cap, loves MMA and fighting, and is juiced to his eyeballs.
Of course he's angry. This guy ain't doing yoga and meditating on world peace.

That guy built up his arms so he can be more effective at murdering innocent Afghan dudes.

??? these guys are dedicated to a pay check
Shut up you fucking ungrateful fag! It's really that hard for you to believe that there are people who actually believe in what they are doing? To defend this country and protect their freedoms like your freedom to brag and describing what it's like to be fucked in the ass. Something which you would be put to death for if our enemies win and impose Sharia law as they vow to do.
Doing it just for a paycheck? Yah, join the Army. That's how you get rich. Remember Patrick Tillman you ungrateful, spoiled, ignorant little fuck? Think he did it for the money? Have you moved out of your parents house yet or still free loading so you have the time to juice, train, smoke weed and post youtube vids of yourself stoned out of you homo mind.
Talk about generation nothingness.

Ignoring the obvious trolling of the anti-military fags.......

Being in the US Military would suck so bad.
I'm trying to disrespect the troops or anything. But God Damn that sounds like a shitty job.
Hanging out in a Muslem desert shithole. Killing innocent people all day. The sergeant yelling in your face. Barely any personal freedom.
I'd rather work at McDonalds than put up with all that bullshit.
You leftist pig! You have no idea what it's like in the U.S Military, just what you read and see on TV, which is selective. If you really want to know how great the US military is then come over here and join, if not, shut your face. "Killing innocent people"? I am sure there are a few that have been killed but only by accident. Rooting out radicals is a hard job when all look and dress the same. Before talking shit, get in the trenches and learn first hand. Go Work at McDonalds since that is probably the only job you can get anyways.

I almost never post here..long time member but seldom poster. I had to reply to this thread because it's unbelievable to me how some people perceive the military and people's reasons for joining.
I'm an Air Force nurse currently deployed to somewhere in Afghanistan. Obeying the orders of those appointed over me. I've been in the military for over 8 years and of the hundreds of people I serve with here and the thousands I've had the pleasure of serving with during my time, I've never met a single person who wants to kill innocent people in a distant land.
" Hanging out in a Muslem desert shithole. Killing innocent people all day. The sergeant yelling in your face. Barely any personal freedom."
The fact that BFRS has this opinion and is willing to post it on a forum is pathetic and unbelievably misinformed. It's insulting to the millions of military members and veterans to have anyone honestly think this is what we do. Does every police officer look for an opportunity to shoot an unarmed citizen? I doubt anyone thinks that way.
The fact is that many don't support the mission here in Afghanistan. I don't agree with it entirely myself but I took an oath. I agreed to do something bigger than myself and it had nothing to do with a paycheck or getting to shoot a gun. Almost every day someone gets the knock on their door and opens it to the sight of a military member in service dress getting ready to give them the news that a loved one has been lost. I've been on the team that gives that news. It's horrific and rips your heart out to see the reaction. I know that could be my wife answering the door. But if nobody stepped up...honestly what kind of country would we be. If nobody stepped up to patrol our streets, put their life on the line to stop the drunk driver careening down our neighborhood streets, what if the firefighters decided putting their life on the line to put out an your apartment fire just wasn't worth it anymore. Every day we in America enjoy the life we live and it's because of people, past and present, who have decided our ideals, principles and beliefs are worth sacrificing for.
We make a decent to good living in the military. But my experience has been that most people don't join for the money. They don't join because they're complete losers and can't do anything but bag groceries. We have those but they're the exception not the rule. The military members I interact with on a daily basis like what they do, understand they're involved in something bigger than themselves, feel a sense of pride in what they do and want to make things better for themselves, their families and the people around them. They're not blood-thirsty soldiers looking for an opportunity to kill an innocent person.
As far as David Henry goes, I wish him a safe deployment. While he is a professional BB, he's no different than the over 100,000 military members who are currently deployed here. Everyone leaves loved ones, everyone sacrifices something that is important to them and everyone here is in harms way. David Henry is just another military member who raised his hand and swore an oath to protect and defend the constitution of the United States and obey the orders of those appointed over him, like millions before him.
For those who bash the hell out of the military and disagree with the policies that we're forced to support...disagree all you want. But inform yourself before labeling us "killers of innocent people". We're the ones standing guard on foreign soil, on the shores of the US, we're putting up sandbag walls when a town floods, we're the ones called to help when a riot breaks out. These, and thousands of other things, are what the military does and the sacrifices we all make shouldn't be labeled or categorized in the way BFRS did in his post. It's disappointing to me as a military member and a citizen of the US.
That's my rant. Damnit, disagree with the war, disagree with the policies and hate whoever you want. But at least be respectful of the people who, past, present and future, support, defend and protect your right to live as Americans.

How do you know his intentions?
Have you ever had a conversation with him where he sat down with you and detailed his intentions on enlisting??
I really hope you're not serious.
i went back last night and tried to find the comments from pegg that i was talking about. i couldnt find them, and actually after going through his posts he seems like an alright guy and he had a sense of humor about the whole thing. so i take back my comments in regards to pegg specifically. but i do recall someone on this forum, i thought it was pegg, who was an iraq/afgan veteran and was talking about how many 'ragheads' he had shot down and making light of the whole thing. thats the kind of sentiment i was refering to. and most of the guys who enlist at 18-20 years old are doing so first and foremost because they cant get a decent job anywhere else (which is nothing to be ashamed of), and secondly because they want to go play shoot em up and kill people
Funny how you throw religion into this when you're losing a debate. Read the bible bro. We are defending ourselves. Should we not even have a military tbombz? Should we all just be a country of pacifists and not defend when attacted or people wanting to attack?
"you have heard it said, en eye for an eye. but i tell you that if someone slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him as well, for our heavenly father who is perfect sheds light on both the good and evil, rains down on both the good and bad. "
^^^ words of jesus coach. according to the bible, and according to a man of sincere faith in the lord, you should not seek revenge but even give those who would wrong you more of an oppurtunity to do so. god wants as many people as possible to come into his light, and that means that when you come across a misguided soul you do not punish it, you show it the way of god, show it unconditional love even in the face of trreacherous evil, show it that you have no fear of death because you know the lord above is almighty and benevolent, and you want to show the evildoer the power of righteousness.
the military is not supported by god. although as long as it is used properly, self defense, protection of human rights only, then god would not view its existence/operation as a wrong doing or immorality.

The people in Egypt, Libya and Bahrain are only fighting to change one tyrant for another. Most of you praise all of these people for trying overthrow the government but for what? So, someone else can oppress them with their Religious Sharia laws, their so called "freedom"... Before jumping for joy with all the unrest in the middle east, make sure it was worth the bloodshed and wait to see how it plays out.

is it possible that their new governments might be taken over by minority extremists who will oppress the people? possible. but based on recent events we know that the people of those nations will not sit idle while a ruler infringes on their human rights.
yes, jump for joy, the people of the earth are awakening.

Oh God what a fucking moron! Remember the Iranian revolution? Replaced the
Shah with Khomeini. The Czars were replaced with the Communist. Batista replaced by Castro. The list goes on and on of revolutions replacing bad for worse. And lol at quoting the Bible. Something you don't even believe in. Did Coach say our military is based on Biblical teaching?
You keep sticking your nose in subjects you know absolutely nothing about. Stick with what you know like sticking needles and cocks in your ass.

Every day we in America enjoy the life we live and it's because of people, past and present, who have decided our ideals, principles and beliefs are worth sacrificing for.
We make a decent to good living in the military. But my experience has been that most people don't join for the money. They don't join because they're complete losers and can't do anything but bag groceries. We have those but they're the exception not the rule. The military members I interact with on a daily basis like what they do, understand they're involved in something bigger than themselves, feel a sense of pride in what they do and want to make things better for themselves, their families and the people around them. They're not blood-thirsty soldiers looking for an opportunity to kill an innocent person.
As far as David Henry goes, I wish him a safe deployment. While he is a professional BB, he's no different than the over 100,000 military members who are currently deployed here. Everyone leaves loved ones, everyone sacrifices something that is important to them and everyone here is in harms way. David Henry is just another military member who raised his hand and swore an oath to protect and defend the constitution of the United States and obey the orders of those appointed over him, like millions before him.
For those who bash the hell out of the military and disagree with the policies that we're forced to support...disagree all you want. But inform yourself before labeling us "killers of innocent people". We're the ones standing guard on foreign soil, on the shores of the US, we're putting up sandbag walls when a town floods, we're the ones called to help when a riot breaks out. These, and thousands of other things, are what the military does and the sacrifices we all make shouldn't be labeled or categorized in the way BFRS did in his post. It's disappointing to me as a military member and a citizen of the US.
That's my rant. Damnit, disagree with the war, disagree with the policies and hate whoever you want. But at least be respectful of the people who, past, present and future, support, defend and protect your right to live as Americans.
Awesone post! God bless you. What these anti-American ingrates fail to consider is what kind of world this would be without America as the world leader. Who would you want to replace this wicked country? China? Russia? North Korea?
Without this great country this world would be ruled by tyrants and authoritarians. America is, and always has been, the greatest force of good on this planet. That's right! I said it! The GREATEST FORCE OF GOOD ON THIS PLANET!
*Cue all the ungrateful traitors shaking their heads never to realize that without this country they'd be living under Fascism, Nazism, Communism or Islamic Fundamentalism *

I almost never post here..long time member but seldom poster. I had to reply to this thread because it's unbelievable to me how some people perceive the military and people's reasons for joining.
I'm an Air Force nurse currently deployed to somewhere in Afghanistan. Obeying the orders of those appointed over me. I've been in the military for over 8 years and of the hundreds of people I serve with here and the thousands I've had the pleasure of serving with during my time, I've never met a single person who wants to kill innocent people in a distant land.
" Hanging out in a Muslem desert shithole. Killing innocent people all day. The sergeant yelling in your face. Barely any personal freedom."
The fact that BFRS has this opinion and is willing to post it on a forum is pathetic and unbelievably misinformed. It's insulting to the millions of military members and veterans to have anyone honestly think this is what we do. Does every police officer look for an opportunity to shoot an unarmed citizen? I doubt anyone thinks that way.
The fact is that many don't support the mission here in Afghanistan. I don't agree with it entirely myself but I took an oath. I agreed to do something bigger than myself and it had nothing to do with a paycheck or getting to shoot a gun. Almost every day someone gets the knock on their door and opens it to the sight of a military member in service dress getting ready to give them the news that a loved one has been lost. I've been on the team that gives that news. It's horrific and rips your heart out to see the reaction. I know that could be my wife answering the door. But if nobody stepped up...honestly what kind of country would we be. If nobody stepped up to patrol our streets, put their life on the line to stop the drunk driver careening down our neighborhood streets, what if the firefighters decided putting their life on the line to put out an your apartment fire just wasn't worth it anymore.

Oh God what a fucking moron! Remember the Iranian revolution? Replaced the
Shah with Khomeini. The Czars were replaced with the Communist. Batista replaced by Castro. The list goes on and on of revolutions replacing bad for worse. And lol at quoting the Bible. Something you don't even believe in. Did Coach say our military is based on Biblical teaching?
You keep sticking your nose in subjects you know absolutely nothing about. Stick with what you know like sticking needles and cocks in your ass.
::) yes, revolutions never do any good. stupid americans, stupid french, stupid almost every democracy on the planet... they should have known their revolutions were doomed to fail.

you didnt respond to my post earlier, about an eye for an eye
anyways, communists arent traitors. they are communists. the two terms have nothing in common. communist=someone who does not believe in private property. traitor=someone who turns their back on a previously held allegiance. see, no correlation.

Jesus was a communist/socialist. Lulz.

I didn't have, you think one scripture in the bible sums it up, you have A LOT to learn. I'm pretty much though with you and all of your naïve, idiodic posts, the sad part is people know you and you're not some idiot gimmick, they know you're real and extremly dilutional. You direspect our military and you disrespect our country.

STFU euro.

Are you saying that the French revolution was a good thing? And the American revolution was seeking Independence. That's a bit different than a coup. But nice try going back hundreds of years.

"America is so fucking great and I don't want to hear the truth so you all shut the fuck up".
Well, why don't you tell me the truth. Are you deny America's role in combating and defeating Fascism, Nazism and Communism, as well as leading the fight, maybe the only country that's truly fighting, Islamic Fundamentalism?
BTW, where are you from? Germany?

You didn't even have any argument, you were just spouting off topic cliches about the superiority of USA. I'm from the internets.
-
does "having our country attacked," and do "the continuing threats against our country" really piss you off? do you really feel anger when a bunch of people you don't know get blown up in a building thousands of miles away?
i mean, actual anger? really? ???
Optimism and pessimism are actually just emotions. Pessimistic people are people who live their life through the emotion of fear. Optimistic people live their life through the emotion of hope. Military's are built on fear.

The people in Egypt, Libya and Bahrain are only fighting to change one tyrant for another. Most of you praise all of these people for trying overthrow the government but for what? So, someone else can oppress them with their Religious Sharia laws, their so called "freedom"... Before jumping for joy with all the unrest in the middle east, make sure it was worth the bloodshed and wait to see how it plays out.
The CIA funded these up risings. The push for a one world government has never been stronger. When it does happen, I wonder how people with blind patriotism will feel about their countries which never really existed in the first place. The American government and big business has already told its people that a country is really just a hologram. Anyone who holds on too tight is going to be sadly disappointed when it disappears. Reagan words "tear down this wall" have more meaning then many want to believe.
-
You didn't even have any argument, you were just spouting off topic cliches about the superiority of USA. I'm from the internets.
Why does it matter if I have an argument or not? You said that I didn't know the truth so I am asking you what is that truth. And name one "cliche" I spouted.
And it does not come as a surprise that you don't want to tell me where you are from. You will rarely find an American that wants to hide the fact that he lives in America. Chances are that where you live now and the freedoms you enjoy, and take for granted, is due in no small part to America.
Why are you afraid or reluctant to say where you are from?
-
Many people repeatedly praise democracy as a force of good, and usually in arguments where they are lamenting the idiocy of their peers -- the vast masses of moral and intellectual decadents -- "liberals."
if the masses are stupid, traitorous, and degenerate, why should they have the power? and don't pretend like it hasn't always been this way. your parents and your grandparents and their parents before them all thought they were an island of reason amidst a sea of "flotsam."
honest question for those with unyielding patriotism, for all those who view fascism as a great evil and democracy the only good government.

Jesus was a communist/socialist. Lulz.
i dont think he was actually, never read anything that would indicate that.

its written the same way throughout the bible. thats what jesus preached and if you think about it you will see the truth in it as well.

i did it for the money....i still do it because i love what i do...i pretty much only do weapons training these days though..
i was always agency, or privately employed as a soldier though..never military...

Is this guy still gonna be able to do his steroids out there in the desert?

The year is 2011. The American military must test for steroids these days do they not? I know they load them up with dozens of shots of assorted shit to take. One would think they would also draw/test blood.

I'm know they turn a blind eye sometimes.
A guy I know was smoking weed and opium out there with the ANA. But that's all on the down low. ;)

One would think officers would be held to a higher standard. Esp. in the military.

Seems like they should allow them to do gear. Make them more powerful death machines. Rip an Afghan guy's head right off his shoulders and suck the GH out of his brains.
Lots of guys out there are doing their drugs. It sounds like you can basically get your hands on anything out there if you are resourceful.
Fuck drug laws and drug testing anyway. If they allowed military dudes to do drugs I could maybe join.
-
As a vet over 22 years, I would think that a professional athlete such as David would be able to get a waiver from being deployed. I dont know what career field he is in, but I do know Air Force wrestlers are able to leave their assignment to train in Colorado. Maybe bodybuilding is not recognized in that way.
Generally, Air Force assignments are good and food and recreation is available.
I will say that pilots are given supplements to keep them focused and awake, I was given Test to maintain my weight and physical health, per my doc.
I went to many countries and saw good and bad, its my opinion that everyone in our country should have to serve at least two years...
-
Be a soldier,don't wimpy kid.
I serviced as a soldier on small island near Mainland China and fighted with them in early 1970s.
Best of luck to sergeant Henry!

Military certainly does test for juice, had a roommate get popped back in the day. And any of you that believe your toolbag friends are smoking weed and other shit while in and think the military is turning a blind eye are dumb as shit. they random drug test, so someone might get away with it if they smoke and don't come up to be tested....but there is no way in hell if someone does test positive they just "let it slide" I saw it first hand, so unless you have served don't even bother weighing in with your "I've read.....know a buddy..... opinions..." dismissed....
-
German soldier could have said the same thing during World War 2. What do you think about that?
And what was the outcome of that war? I laugh at your ignorance and your try at sarcasm.

Add to this, the roommate I had that got popped. the test was requested by someone in the chain-of-command, which at that time, was the only way you would be tested for AAS. All other drugs fall under the "random" testing system.

Im wondering how he manage his steroids injections while serving tho.

i NEVER POST BUT i found this thread interesting and with such polarizing arguments I thought I would offer my
2 cents and i believe this is the truth.
Tbomz Coach you guys are all off. Coach you are especially off and definitely come off as someone that is extreme and that doesn't know what they are talking about. Do you ever admit you are wrong or take anyone elses opinions serious? All you do is bash liberals and talk about bible but i would say a lot of your actions and attitude do not reflect christians that i know and respect. I myself am a Christian, far from perfect before you go and call me a non christian muslim lover also. Also I consider myself a libertarian more on the conservative side. I dont just regurgitate the rhetoric and agenda of right ring media, sean hannity's fox news etc etc...... with that disclosed let me tell you....
I appreciate the lady that posted about here experience being in the military. That is true because she is there and can speak for herself and those that she personally knows.
My best friend since grade school is a naval officer and other friends are in the military also and i have heard all sides of the story and seen all sides of the spectrum.
Are there people that join the military because they think it is their duty and it is noble and they are serving their country? Absolutely. Are there lots of examples of this? Yes absolutely. Why? Because there are a lot of people in the armed forces!!!!
The military employs many many people and they have various intentions.
Just because people join the army to get paid and make a living doesnt mean they are doing it because they think they are going to get rich, coach you genius. It is their best option from which they can choose from.
Tbombz, although he doesnt know a lot, is right that there is definitely a lot of young people joining the military because it is the best option in this economic climate and is their best option all things considered. Its not going to make them rich, yes they have a chance of dying, but no that chance is relatively small.
My best friend can go on deployment to Dubai next year and save over 100,000 in a year and live a nice standard of life while there.
He can do in one year what it takes someone else 5 years to do. A lot of americans can not save 20,000 a year i would say most do not. The earnings are tax free and the stipend given for living is more than generous and can be saved. Living is in 4-5 star hotels because of safety need i say more.....
I know plenty of others that dont make as much because they are enlisted and he is an officer but still do it for the money and it is the best option. Do they like to be deployed and away from their family? no. Do they like to be in the middle east or other unfavorable areas....probably not. Do a lot of them believe in what they are doing......some do some dont it is pretty even i would say on both sides, but absolutely a huge factor is the money, and it is a good option.
Everyone has to survive and pay bills and support a family...you do that by having a job...some people like their job some do not...some people believe in what they are doing some do not...all in all you are working for a paycheck. This is simple concept and military is no different.
I know young people that are being deployed to afghanistan that are juicing and taking sust and dbol beforing deploying....hitting me up and asking me or gym buddies what can they take in place of hcg because they wont be able to refigerate over there.....
These are all people from California coach....in socal and norcal......
I know plenty of people that stay on weekend reserve.....why??? for the money..... they also do a few week deployments once a year in hawaii and guam etc..... and get paid well and have semi vacation on off time
Alot of people on reserve just praying they dont get deployed but need to work the reserve to get pay rent....
Coach you are a blind and ignorant person if you do not think there is a tradeoff and the military does not know what it offers and why it offers it to attract and retain people.
There are people in the military that believe in what they do, there are people in the military that are gay and that are even muslim? Tough to believe? Its true. Like any employer and employee relationship there are numerous reasons why people work their jobs and payoffs and consequences that they consider and weigh. Some believe in valor, in discipline etc etc...
a lot of people do it because it is a living..... a lot of people dont believe in it and express a lot of insight about how they really feel about the country, military, their job and the opinions are all over the place.
To think that there are not a lot of young people in the military because they want to blow up shit and get paid is extremely naive and absolutely false.
To think that there are not a lot of people in the military because they believe in what they do is also absolutely false.
Now lets hear what people have to say
-
If a company, say MicroSoft, had a reputation of hiring minorities, those from a predominately poor or under privilege background; say they even advertised that they encourage those without an advance degree or academic achievements and would help provide funding for college or even provide their own training and education programs. Lets say they even had commercials that said something like, "Don't know what you want to do in life? No opportunities for you? Can't afford college? Going nowhere fast? -- JOIN MICROSOFT!"
Such a company would be hailed as a godsend! It would be a Liberal's wet dream. They'd question why other companies don't follow suit. They might even start pressuring and even demanding other companies do the same. They'll say that all companies should be like that -- except if it's for the military.
BTW, it is simply not true that the military is compose primarily of minorities, the poor, and those without an education.

That is true. Everyone has the right to be unproductive. Just as long as they do it on their on dime. Problem is that many, if not most, of the unproductive people in society are loafing on someone else's expense.

In America, if the land is not temporary privately owned, it is owned by the government. They built a system where you can't live off the land without paying into the system. Its almost impossible to be bum living on the street without paying into the system one way or another.(food tax, booze tax etc). So even a bum is not totally unproductive.

Totally true.
You can live off the land, but if you do it you'll be breaking some laws.
There are people lurking in National Parks, living like the badass frontiersmen of 300 years ago. Of course when the ppark ranger finds them he takes them into town and makes them return to civilization.

As I've said a many many times, I get very little info from people like hannity, rush, ect, all though I do agree with them 95% of the time, that's not source of info, neither from the web nor newspapers, etc. It goes deeper than that. So you kinda shot yourself in the foot with that one. Secondly, don't judge by the way I sometimes act on here, for the most part this site is for pure entertainment purposes only. That being said, there has been little I've said that wasn't truth in portraying liberals

So the post is good but I'm way off base? I assume your saying that you agree with the stuff i say about the military and if thats the case cool. If your talking about me making comments about you personally make sure you read my comments carefully. I'm far from a liberal and did i not disclose that I am also of christian faith and lean to the conservative side? Where do you get that I am a liberal? The hannity rush comments were a reference to what a certain type of conservative attitude comes off as and that is the aura that you give off on here on posts that i have read before. I don't know you in person and you totally could be a cool guy I am speaking in regards to online presence. A lot of things go deeper you are correct that goes both ways and the same way people on here chastize you about being a conservative you do the same in depicting and portraying "liberals". to be honest i say this to you because since you are a christian people look at you as an example of the faith. I think it would serve you better to be less antagonistic. Thats how you come across. Yes this place is for entertainment but its obvious people have serious discussions and heated debates. I see the atheists, agnostics etc on here all use the same weak bible and conservative remarks on you and even if they are wrong the way they get to weasel out of the truth and focus on talking shit. Anyways on another note man i see you had a good physique back in the day and not like some of the clowns that talks all this shit about other peoples physique without nothing to show for it.
I live in socal also lived in marina del rey for last 5 years and just moved downtown earlier this year for business to be centrally located between san gabriel and southbay.

I didn't make anything up, if I did it would reflect in the way the government is ran. You sound like a comeplete CT thinking everyone in government is really one big happy unit just duping the public.

Dan reported on the webcast that Sgt David Henry is being deployed by the Air Force and will miss the entire contest season. GOOD LUCK GIANT KILLER. Be safe!
lb for lb one of the best in the pros.
God's speed Giant Killer!

David Henry is for sure some sort of Alien Hybrid. His military ties not withstanding.

be safe Dave, God bless.......the BB stage awaits your return, Bro.

David Henry is one of the most symmetrical and balanced bodybuilders around. He does not get what he deserves.

With those big arms, he will be able to rip the head right off an
innocent Afghan man trying to defend his homeland insurgent.

Look dude, I know damn well you know what I'm talking about, but incase I'm wrong let me enlighten you. How about being pissed off for having our country attacked, the continuing threats against our country, people that are over here right now planning and plotting to kill our people. If that isn't good enough then I don't know what else to say...no, I'm verifing what an idiot tbombz is.
.... look for the concepts of sublimation and identification in psychanalysis, fucking moron.

He's a doped up "little person" that probably won't see any combat. In other words, he's a worthless drug addict felon-in-waiting and he's in the Chair Force.
Fuck that noise. He should just do a series of Chair Force recruitment films where he holds a syringe of his favorite steroid/GH/Insulin cocktail and sings "I represent, the dope addict guild..."
The military of these United States is honorable, but this doped up dwarf isn't.

I'm guessing you get 5 inches of the manlets penis once a week when he takes his cialis. Am I right?

And what, pray tell, does this paragon of pharmaceutical virtue "deserve"? Fuck that noise. He's a wee Keebler Elf of a drug addict.
Just because he occasionally "serves" in the Chair Force doesn't make him a great man. The Hell Angels have a Toy Run once a year and I suppose you think that absolves them of any and all guilt related to the other 364 (or 365 if a leap year) days of the year? Again, fuck that noise.

Yeah. I hate this whole philosophy of "Americans must totally support the military, or else they are traitors."
Really sick of having that shit shoved down my throat.

I'm not sure who you are directing this to but we have an a large group of people that want to kill us. What do you think we should do? Say we left Afghanistan and all presence in Iraq. Then what? How will our enemies interpret that? Will they view it as a victory or defeat for the Islamic Movement? Will it discourage them in their quest for world dominance or embolden them? If there was no American military how would the world be different?

If ending the Islamic movement were really the goal then Afghanistan is not a good place to be doing it. Afghanistan is not a very important or influential country as far as Islam goes.
Just think about Afghanistan. What is there to do there? It's just a backwater. Iraq is too. The true center of all that shit is Saudi Arabia.
The threat of Islamic Terrorism against the USA is very, very, VERY overexagerated. The way to prevent it is through good homeland security. Not by roaming aorund in Afghanistan, wasting tons of money, pissing everyone off at us over there even more.
I aree that the USA needs to protect itself against violence. But this shit we're doing in the Middle East is only creating more enemies. Not helping.
Saudi Arabia is spreading Islam all over the world with it's wealth and influence. Afghanistan and Iraq are just poor countries trying to survive.

Two planes were flown into the World Trade Center killing thousands. Our enemies state plainly that it is their religious duty to end Western civilization. Since 9/11 we have broken up hundreds of terror cells actively planning attacks on civilian targets killing thousands of innocents. And you feel the threat of terrorism is exaggerated? Very, very exaggerated?

You stupid fucktard. Taliban insurgents are a cancer to Afghanistan. They deliberately target schools and women to keep the population undereducated and thus more vulnerable to their bullshit ideologies.
They extort and murder their own people.

9/11 was not done by Islamic terrorists. This is the bullshit explanation for 9/11 that was given to the public, but that's exactly what it is, bullshit.
I'm not saying that 9/11 was an inside job. But this story about the Saudis with box cutters and Bin Laden is just TOTALLY full of holes.
I don't see how people can believe that shit.
The 9/11 Commision Report, pure fucking bullshit.

Yeah I know that.
But are we stopping it? Hell no. We are only putting a tiny dent in it.
Everyone knows the mission in Afghanistan is unwinnable. That's the beauty of it. An endless, unwinnable stalemate that keeps on pumping money through the war economy.

Given how high emotions ran after 9/11 I couldn't imagine the US NOT responding.
Iraq is a different story though, what load a of horsecrap.

So who made up this story even though they have video tape of some the terrorist getting on the plane and records of them receiving flight instruction omitting the landing portion? Bin Laden celebrating and taking credit for the attack?
And what is your explanation? Who was it done by if not Islamic Terrorists even though they have been conducting terrorist attacks throughout the world for years/decades and have declared war against America and Western society or is that all made up as well?

I really don't wanna get into this debate becaue i've had it a million times and it is time consuming. The information is out there. Most signs point to the world's billionares and top politicians orchestrating 9/11.
Bin Laden was a CIA asset long ago. It's not too hard to do the math on that one.
"Terrorists" boarding planes and recieving instruction? That doesn't prove anything at all. Could easily be staged. That "terrorist" may have been a CIA asset too, or a poor sucker who was lied to and duped.

It is not odd that Bin Laden is on the FBI's most wanted list for terrorist attacks but there is no mention of him killing over 3000 people in the 9/11 attacks?

That's because he wasn't the master mind behind the 9/11 attacks. It was Khalid Shaikh Mohammed. Mohammed was a senior member of al-Qaeda headed by bin Laden. al Queda, at the time of 9/11 was based in Afghanistan.
Since the Islamic fundamentalist, and bin Laden himself, have openly declared war on the US; are responsible for the vast majority of terrorism throughout the world; had already tired to bring down the World Trade Center in 1993 by Ramzi Yousef, the nephew of Khalid Mohammed; openly claimed and took credit for the 9/11 attacks; why would it be a stretch to believe that al Qaeda and the Islamic fundamentalist were behind the attacks.
We did not need 9/11, nor did we, to go to war with Iraq. And we did not go there to steal their oil though I wish we did take a cut.

Makes sense in what you are saying. But if we ask most of America the question who was responsible for 9/11? They would say Bin Laden. Hell George Bush said Bin Laden was responsible. Most of Fox news said he was. Yet no mention of 9/11 on the FBI's website of Bin Laden. I just find it odd is all.
