I dont know how many of you in here are veterans but to those that are, my hats off to you, especially those who are serving in iraq right now. This war is very hard to fight and still play by the nato rules. those cowardly *******s hide behind children and use unconventional tactics to fight us. we cant fire back yet you boys keep goin in to do your best. I see what you are up against everyday with roadside bombs. its a scary thought getting hit by one of them. I am doing my best to help get the cure out for ied's and efp's so that or soldiers can come home in one piece. for those who have never seen what is going on take a look at some of these clips, some of them are actual alcaida films released to scare the public. all it does is make my blood boil.

this is a stryker command vehicle getting nailed, to put what happened into proportion, that vehicle is about the size of a greyhound bus and weighs twice as much..... http://youtube.com/watch?v=_XO1bd-BxLQ

This ones a suicide bomber, notice he slows down in front of a set of hmmwv's then pulls over the bomb to set it off. http://youtube.com/watch?v=B_PsyfHhEx4

and for those who said hmmwv's suck, these guys would have been dead if they werent driving in one http://youtube.com/watch?v=CrdcddNx29c

and this is how 80% of ied attacks go http://youtube.com/watch?v=lFcQs5KxHgs

this one shows how beefy the m1's are http://youtube.com/watch?v=uV-05i6InHo

this i think is the worse one, they add music and cheer about it hiding behind rocks. http://youtube.com/watch?v=2wAIjB9QJvI

but to end it on a much more upbeat note, when we find where they are hiding this is what happens http://youtube.com/watch?v=P1_KkeTauME

Thank you all so much. Because of your bravery and dedication we are a free country. And the best darn one at that.

My hat's off to you

 

vets, dont forget to hit up your local golden corral for a free meal. though, i hear it gets pretty crowded.

 

Thanks to all veterans who have put their lives on the line for freedom.

How about all the vets here post up: branch, dates, duty stations/units

I too thank all of our vets, past and present. Our services are Volenteer
and they need everones support. When I see our solders missing limbs and the horendous wounds both physical and mental, I cry.

God Bless America

god bless and your welcome

 

I am proud of everyone of our vets for everything they gave up for us and are giving up for us. Makes me proud to be and American!

 

I also say, "Thank you" to the veterans. And humbly say, "You're welcome" and I'd do it again if needed.

Zweibrucken Air Base, Germany 1983 - 1988
George Air Force Base, California 1988 - 1992

Primary "job" - Fuels Specialist. While at George AFB, I was selected to run the Base Motorcycle Safety program.

In Idaho, we have a lot of homeless vets, too. I stay away from Golden Corral so they can have my seat. They've had a rougher time than I have.

 

it's bad to see anyone homeless, but you would think with all the programs and money going towards welfare, that noone who ever served their country should be that down and out. thanks to our vets and the family members of our brothers and sisters who have paid the ultimate price. One nation, under God.

USMC active duty 2001-2005. mostly stationed at camp pendleton, CA. two tours in iraq. truck mechanic. currently serving in the reserves in Cincinnati, OH. Semper Fi

 

My father brought us here in 1979 from Cuba. My father is now 76 on dialysis awaiting kidney transplant. When he watches the news, he says," I'd give anything to go fight for this country, maybe they'll call me. " He really hopes he is called on to fight. He is dead serious, and hard core paitriot. As immigrants we have a profound respect this holy land. We are forever gratefull to the many that have made the ultimate sacrafice. When I hear of a veteran loosing his house, or standing at the unemployment office awaiting help,...... I want to cry, then go string up some politicians !!!! Thank You Veterans, Proudly Made In The U.S.A. GOD BLESS OUR BROTHERS

 

The next time someone tells you they support our troops, ask them what they have done today? Everyone likes to say it but very few actually do the deed.
I got my DD-214 in 1988 and I am writing you now from the Iraq desert. We are locating and destroying captured enemy ammunition. Every piece that we destroy is potentially one less IED. Thanks to all the others out there who are doing more than talking.
