When are you going to sign up?
Johnny Boy Herring claims he served as a combat engineer during our war
against Vietnam. I've asked him several times how many Vietnamese people
he killed with explosives or even his rifle, but as far as I recall, he
has never responded with the facts.
Harry, Engineers arn't combat troops, They build stuff like roads,
bridges, etc. *not that doesn't mean they're not also trained in
fighting. Don't personally know, but with a bit of speculation, I'd
say John 'probably' didn't kill anybody.
Well, I'd have to disagree about the first sentence. They're called Combat Engineers for a reason.
But, I'm not going to delve into specifics.

Well yes, John. I didn't say you didn't blow stuff up.
but "Combat" [usually] isn't in the picture that is unless the orders
are specified. At least that's what I gather.
Nope, all engineers in a Combat Engineer Battalion are 'combat' engineers. The Combat Arms are the
Infantry, Artillery, Armor, and Engineers. (Of course, that could have changed in the past 20
years.)
