I'd sure want her in my foxhole covering my butt < /sarcasm>

What a self-centered, shallow, selfish b*tch!!!

The only reason her generation has it's Freedom is because of previous generations who DID give up our dreams and to die for our country. We will be asked to leave our loved ones, to leave our educations and to die alongside our brothers, sisters and friends.

Reminds me of an incident that I participated in at Ft. Knox almost 20 years ago. Since Ft. Knox is a basic training post, it was easy to get details from the Reception Center and some Basic Training units for various jobs. As an NCO, I needed some extra manpower one day, and headed over to the Reception Center. There I obtained an even dozen raw recruits in fresh fatigues and haircuts. During a break in the day's work I overheard one of these young men telling another that he had enlisted for the National Guard, and that he never intended to go into combat. I questioned him further, and he stated that he was a "concientous objector". Upon returning to the Reception Center I made a point of making this fact known to the duty officer. He called me the next day to tell me that after further questioning they had sent this kid home with a General Discharge. Can we do the same for this young lady?

"Please don't ask me to die . . . in the name of revenge."

This is not about revenge, it is about protecting ourselves from further attacks.

[Storm Orphan]

Oh for criminy's sakes. This is pathetic.

I don't know if you have seen the HBO show 'Band of Brothers'.

It is about a group of soldies in the 101 Airborne during WWII.

They have interviewed several of the real participants during the shows.

One ex- soldier stated that in his small town ( Mid-West as I remember) 3 young men couldn't join, got 4F deferments. Two of the three committed suicide because of the shame.

And now we have this crop of young 'Americans'.

I heard of an incident in a local school today. I won't relate the details for fear of starting an ugly thread war. What I will say is that there and many hyphenated Americans that look at the WTC disaster with indifference.

[Walkin Man]

Dishonorable discharge NOW!

If I remember right, it's been a long time; statements like this in time of war constitute treason.

[aculeus]

Thank you, Patsy Schroeder.

[Travis McGee]

The Army is just "workfare" for unwed moms in too many cases.

They are worse than useless, they are anchors to drag around.

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

THATS ALRIGHT TRAITORS GET IT FROM THEIR OWN IF YOU DESERT DURING WAR YOU DIE ....so tell her to have it her own way

[Free the USA]

Could this simply be miss-info designed to influence our actions.

[Ronin]

I think she needs to be frog-marched out of the National Guard immediately. That ding-a-ling has no business wearing our nation's uniform.

[SEA]

This is what you get when you have a PC army--thank you, Patsy Schroeder, for your treason in the name of sexual PC.

And a here's a news flash for you, little PFC Laura: If you join the National Guard in order to have them pay for your BS in Cultural Anthropology, and for all the cool money they give you, there is a chance they may ask you to actually earn the money they are paying you.

I am not afraid to defend my country,

What, exactly, do some people think the military is anyway?

I hope this gal understands that the military has one role - to break the enemy's things and kill their people.

[sam I am]

Laura does not know the history of our nation and the brave men and women that have laid down their lives for freedom. She doesn't know the difference between revenge and freedom.

Our son was an Army Ranger, he was willing to die for this country and the freedom we hold so dear. Some of his friends did. He told us while he was in the Army that women should not be there that they would be the cause of many deaths.

Maybe Laura should just drop out and go home to her mom and dad and grow up.

[gunnedah]

What the heck did she join for?Its like saying I wont a job but do not want to work. Tell her the welfare roll has changed.There are those who died before her so she could have freedom. Now she does not want to do her part.

[Ol'Grey Head]

What do you mean the older generation made sacrifices for them? Jesse told me that I am a AARP leech that is ruining his wonderful life style.

[Jimmy Valentine's brother]

If we go to war, it will be my generation that will have to go. America will ask us to give up our dreams and to die for our country. We will be asked to leave our loved ones, to leave our educations and to die alongside our brothers, sisters and friends.

Stupid *itch. The idea is to make the other person die. What does she think the gerations that proceeded her did? AAGGRRHH!

[Dutchy]

This young women should resign from the guard. She's a disgrace. She obviously signed up just for the benefits...she has no idea of service to her country..

[TomB]

Why is she bitching? All she has to do is get knocked up and she's off the hook.

[Saundra Duffy]

No doubt a democrat. For victory & freedom!!!

It's clear that you don't understand that,with a few exceptions,we no longer have a military force. What we have are "Social Studies Groups" who wear uniforms.
