this was brought up by one of the distinguished posters here on

So I'd like to know, seeing I've got a box with a few pay stubs in it
from being a guest of Uncle Sugar, I'd say that doing military service
IS actually considered as a "job". But now I'm left in confusion
because the distinguished poster I've mentioned seems to be skeptical
of that claim.

So I present this question to the other distinguished posters on
rec.boats:

"Do you, or do you not, consider service in the US military as being a
"job"?"

What say ye?

I say ignore the idiot. He's just a disgusting fat prick with no
redeeming values, no friends, and has the personality of a tree stump.-

Oh, that's OK Loog. Actually its a fair quesiton that I would feel
comfortable to ask so that I may be further educated . And I'd like to
get opinions so I can see if I as well as others who served in the US
military, actually had a "job" or not.

And I really dont' know about the distinguished poster having the
personality of a tree stumpor not. . But in my own conjecture, I
thought tree stumps were kept for target practice...


I would think it is a job. When I worked on airborne radars the civilians
on the next bench, doing the same thing considered it a job. My buddy, a
West Pointer, did a job. Whether in South East Asia getting shot at, or
attached to the embassy in Paris. He did what was required and was paid for
"the job".
