I don't believe these boaters were aware of the exercise.
And I know they didn't know they would be rousted in the middle of the night.

Besides, we need to be able to perform exercises without this kind of harassment of innocent civilian boaters who are docked and asleep.

Lt Warren said he wouldn't do it again.

For now, I will take his word for it. But I doubt this will be the end of the story for him. Apparently it was his call to roust these innocent and unsuspecting docked and sleeping boaters in the middle of the night.

Not a good call by any measure.

"It is Scary that this can happen in America... The terrorist have won once we have lost our civil rights."

And what exactly did happen?

One sided reporting, again, about so called military abuses.

Gee that's what hanoi kerry did in the 70's

"I don't believe these boaters were aware of the exercise."

How come no one in WA "complained"

They knew, beforehand.

So let me know when the Coast Guard investigation is done.

"You're still trying to excuse your behavior.
You were never in uniform anywhere."

takenoprisoner : This should be easy for you to prove false.

Where and when did you serve in the Marine Corps?

I'm pinging dcwusmc and Race Bannon for you.

Just click on my FR profile.

I just asked that you settle this about your service.

I did NOT ever question it but was suprised you didn't respond to others.

PS And Neil E. Wright has a copy of my DD 214 on file with VetsCoR

So you are about the Constitution then. You know we swore an oath to uphold it. I don't find this midnight roust constitutional, and I doubt dwight will either.

Remember our obligation? We only obey those orders we know to be lawful and do not obey an order we know to be unlawful.

I believe yours is true. My god, I've been on your ping list for years.

My bad. That was intended for my friends darksheare and mikeiniraq.

These are the guys whose service is in doubt.

I'm not your 'friend' pal.

You've so far gone tangential and repeatedly tried to take the focus off of your statement.
Not going to work.

I served in B/Battery 1/156 Field Artillery 7AUG96 to 8AUG02.

Next?

What's up.. Takenoprisoner said the Coast Guard were "gestapo warriors" in post 575 and has taken the past three days trying to defend the statement.
