"First Gulf War cost him dearly health-wise but he’d do it all over again."

I'm sorry to hear that. I was in the first Gulf also (2/5), we had to take a lot of untested and unproven pills, plus I'm sure he's told you about the oil well fires. At noon, it made it look like midnight. Was one of the eeriest sites I ever saw. I'm sure those things contributed to his health. I've been lucky I guess.

When I remarked about being kicked off the drill field, I guess I was alluding somewhat to what you were saying about the General and getting kicked out of the airplane. In order to get the snowflakes into shape, I think you would have to use methods that would now get you kicked off the drill field if caught. My career was not worth one of these little babies.

Thanks for your service. Let us hope there will always be enough volunteers to keep America safe.
Political correctness is destroying this country. I remember WWII and the unity we had as a united people. It was a wonderful feeling. Great to be WINNING again with President Trump. People need to toughen up like we did by solving their own problems and taking responsibility for their actions. Too many wimps today to please me.
