He will take it to Sturgis next year, on a trailer behind his $500,000 Class A RV and talk about how he roughed it up there.

I have a 16 Ultra Limited that I paid way less than sticker for. I love it when I am on the highway but it sucks around town. Unless someone on their phone blows a stoplight or drifts into my lane and takes me out I am going to ride it until either it or I die.
If something does happen to it I am either getting a BMW…

We played Op-For in 2 buildings in a MOUT environment against a company of light infantry (we were 81mm mortar platoon). Typical Ft Ord CA December night (foggy and cold) battalion commander tells company commander to have each person attach a chem light to their LCE so they wouldn’t get lost or separated in the fog.…

I agree that it is probably fraud, but no way in hell he gets either prosecuted. If he was prosecuted and found guilty it would be overturned.

Ok I did 3 active 1 reserves and 4 inactive, thought it was different for commissioned. Thanks!

Why am I grey again?

I would like to say that shocks me but it doesn’t.

You owe me a keyboard +1

DD-214 is not but you can do a FIO request to find out what awards schools etc they earned/attended. Its how stolen valor fucks get busted. I am wondering some of those groups are digging into this.

I earned a CIB for OJC, ets’d in Aug of 90, after a bunch of guys got recalled (we were a cohort unit) I joined the MP unit where I lived. My orders to report to Ft Leavenworth and link up with them arrived Jan 15 at noon in the mail. I ended up getting attached to a different local unit that never deployed can I have…

When that move happened most people were grandfathered in on the pension. The other thing to consider is that people live a lot longer on average than even 20 years ago. If you look at most pension plans they are horribly underfunded and wont be able to pay out.

I agree with you but none of us bitch when our 401k and other investments keep climbing.

As someone who performed CPR on his wife when she collapsed in front of me it WAS an emergency when I was begging God, 911 and everyone else not to let my wife die even though I heard her take her last breath and knew she was gone.
That being said dispatch, the cops, EMT everyone was beyond great and professional. The…

I am sorry to hear about your wife. I know several people with fibromyalgia and I know how how it has affected their lives.  

I struggle with things like this, I know the number don’t lie but, I grew up dirt poor homeless etc have no high school diploma. But I joined the military and took my GI Bill to get an AA now work in the IT field and make between 75k and 85k a year. No one forced me to work 40 hours a week in school and pull more than…

My 2011 Jeep GC with the Hemi got about 19 - 20 MPG on the highway if I lucky.

Ironically I have a lot of family members who still receive various forms of entitlement that scream about how unfair it is that others get the same thing. I am talking people who have never had more than fast food jobs until they could get disability. There is also my relative who is a felon on the state SOR, very…

I would rather see UBI than this https://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/2018/03/nearly-200-busted-3-7-million-food-stamp-fraud-operation/. If UBI can do away with various other government programs or consolidate them all into one I am all in favor of it. 

I have 15 RAM EcoDiesel CC 4x4 with 3.91 and tow mirrors and still typically get 26 or better on the highway. So I am guessing the 4x4 Ford will get 28 or better especially as it breaks in.

Same to you. Sometimes think I should have stayed in (drawing a retirement check at 38 would have been nice) but life has turned out ok, although regret never going to Ranger school. Now that I think about it I wonder if I had to register when I went to college because they said something about not being eligible for…
