What, your sailors never have a dust-up onboard? At least we haven't
shot or bombed any of your guys while in theatre.


You need guns or planes with bombs to do that.

We've got a couple of F-18s that you guys were throwing out, slapped a
bit of duct tape on 'em loaded the bombs with rancid moose turds. Oh,
and we have guns, now if we can just order the right ammo.....

Fun and jokes aside, I really respect a country that pays its military a
living wage. Many of our troops collect welfare. The defense contractors
grow rich and our poor guys in the trenches barely subside. They can't even
afford to buy the equipment the gov fails to supply. VA hospitals are a
joke. You'll die waiting to get into one. If the troop pay was raised I
would bet there would be less wars.
