Is this the same person who got his panties in a wad because when you
were asking everyone in rec.boats to individually congratulate you and
your son for him enlisting in the marines, I thanked ALL servicemen,
and
did not specifically and individually thank your son?

At the time, I was glad I didn't call anyone who enlisted in the
service
a brain dead reject who could not make it in the real world and had to
suck on the public teat of the military service, as Harry has said many
times.

I guess based upon Harry's standards, your son is not qualified to dig
ditches and could not get a job to dig ditches in the real world and
now
has to suck on the governmental teat.

I am glad you have gotten over whining over real and imaginary insults.

Get help.


Amazing, ain't he? Reggie the low-life coward.

Today you seem to have a 'coward' or 'pussy' hangup. Why is that?

Jimmie, or Donnie, can you help explain this. Both Reggie and I are being
called these names.

hmmmm........... he has an astute understanding of human nature??
Ask him.

GOOD MORNING COASTIES!!!

It may be fun to ridicule the military but those are the people who
gave you that right with their blood.
Have you noticed that JimH has been very quiet about Harry's negative
comments about those in the military and ridiculing those who believe in
Christ? I guess when your only friend is harry, you have to spend your
time criticizing JohnH's travel trailer.

Doesn't the major John allow differing opinions in the drone..er..dwarf
army?
How about a little respect for LtCol John. If you are going to belittle
him you could at least get his rank correct. And, you could congratulate
him on finally reaching full retirement age. Did you now he was subject to
recall at any time by the US Army until he reached hist 62nd birthday?

Say what?
You could have knocked me over with a feather.... a man who attained that
rank... leading men during wartime..yet acting like he does here?
God help America!



It's not a big deal. Lieutenant colonel is the rank at which most
officers retire. If you are an officer and stay in the army long enough,
15 or 20 years, you'll make that rank as a minimum. A friend from the
1980s, much younger than me, made the Army his career. He's a major
general and in Iraq right now, finishing up his last four months before
returning stateside, with a couple of months at that time until
retirement. I don't recall his exact age, except that he's in his 50's.

Oh, and unlike Herring, my friend is an officer and a gentlemen. Herring
is a horse's ass.

I thought you would show respect for someone retired from the military
if anybody would, but seeing how you are Harry's lover/clone, you're
acting just like him.

Funny, really. I give Herring as little respect as he deserves. I
haven't read one reason why he is "deserving" of any serious amount of
respect. He's a snarky a$$hole here and did his best to disrupt the
other place.

Wow. Lieutenant Colonel in the Army. Big whoop. I met a captain in the
local fire department at a fundraiser last year. *He* is deserving of
respect, because he runs into burning buildings to bring people out.

Major is the rank at which most officers retire. Major means you get 20
years, LtCol means you get 26 years and full Col means you get 30 years.

The equivalent squid rank to a Major is LCdr.

Ah the military rank structure...
Reminds me of the drill sergeant in Full Metal jacket..
"don't call me sir...I work for a living".

A friend of mine was a Staff Sargent in the USMC and was looking at
going into the MECEP program, 4 years of college and a commission, or
getting promoted to Gunnery Sargent. He thought long and hard about it
and decided that it would be better to retire as an officer than
enlisted due to the large bump in pay.

This same guy was on the Major's promotion list and was told that he
could get his promotion to Major but he had to take an 1 year
unaccompanied tour overseas and extend 18 months past 20 years. He told
them he would rather retire as a Captain at 20 years.

So that is the minimum based on how long you stay in? I did not know
that.

How about those who perform above expectations at their job over 20 or
25 years?
