You still don't get it, do you?

Nobody wants to be like you - you are blinkered, ignorant and have made a
fool of yourself for years.


Takes one to know one.


Such dignity and intellect...

Of course. When I was a conscript the 10% most intelligent went into the
Air Force and of those the 10% most intelligent went into Signals.


I thought guys went into the Air Force to avoid military service.

Where'd you get that dumb idea? It hasn't been that way since WWII. G

Well, your inuation of "just loading weapons" is just as ludicrous. Exactly how
many weapons would you have dropped on Europe if no one had loaded them?

mmm, and here I always thought war was about standing up, making
sacrifice, working together, and everyone doing their part for the
good of their country. At least that's impression I've gotten from
WWII vets who aren't in such a big hurry as you to pat themselves on
the back.

So you yourself have zero experience in combat. Right? Figures.


I may have zero combat experience, but I do have enough sense to
appreciate *everyone's* service and sacrifice for this country during
times of war (and peace), not just those that were doing the shooting
and dying.

~Michael


Forget it, Michael, Art has no respect for those who put him in the nose of
that B-26. I get the impression he actually thinks he could have single
handedly done everything needed to get that heap in the air and on target. Just
think how much manpower we could have saved if aircrewmen did additional duties
as MPs, cooks, supply, BB stackers etc.

What Art refuses to recognize is the ONLY way he could have seen combat is if
there were other people who made it possible. Therefore he feels free to
denigrate other servicemen who served just as ably as he did.

Personally all his putting down non combat servicemen makes me seriously
question if he ever served at all. He is so self centered it is obvious he
never learned teamwork.

What saddens me is how he even puts down other combat vets.

I have yet to figure out how his combat experience is more important mine. I
guess I will never know.
