Come on ANON, the Lone Ranger and his trusty "sidekick" rode to the rescue and singlehandedly saved a damsel in distress. Give credit where credit is due. It was an heroic effort that could only have been done by someone showing courage in the face of extreme danger and knowing that lives were at stake. I just can't figure out why he didn't receive the congressional medal of honor for his efforts. Must have been an oversight on somebody's part. I am surprised that they would let someone so obviously valuable and knowledgable transfer to another base after such a heroic feat...again an oversight on somebody's part. anon wrote: Only a stupid **** like you could make such a statement. You are the one that characterized your repair as quick and simple. I don't see how anyone could view this as a career-defining moment. For all we know, you might have been a terrible Marine.

Even in the Marines you have to screw up real bad to not get one. Were you a bad boy or were you thrown out in less than 3 years? Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |
