ORIGINAL: rocketrotary

If I wasn't an adrenaline junky, I wouldn't have bought a Ninja. I joined the Army right after 9/11 and spent a couple years waiting to make my way over here. Now that I'm here, I'm just bored. I didn't get over here until after all of the real excitement was over.
Thats why I bought one too, it is the only thing I can do on the way to work everyday to get the adrenaline going again. You joined after 911? WTF, I signed into Ft. Campbell on Sep. 9, 2001. Now you are making me feel old...lol.

And yes...you did miss the fun part.

Nothing would **** me off more. I rarely get into this debate, but right now I'm in the mood. The Dems want us to just give up and go home. That would make me sick. I have friends that died out here, not to far from where I am now. If the Dems get their way, than what did my friends die for?

I feel the same bro. They can't wrap their mind around the fact that everyone is not nice, and they do not want to be buddies and sing kumbaya.Thats why there are people like us, because someone has to man up and get the job done. Because we know that the real world is not nice.

I think the first thing we ought to do is kick the media out of Iraq. Then we can get our jobs done without worrying about what things are going to look like when they are broadcast in the States. War is not meant to be pretty. It's brutal, savage, and extremely ugly. Stuff like that has no place in polite society, which is why there are guys like us to handle it. It's pretty bad that the prisoners in the detention facility all have working air conditioners, yet I can't seem to get mine fixed. That's the kind of stuff that just makes my blood boil! And when you were out here, y'all probably didn't even have A/C in every room.

We didn't have A/C, but we got swamp coolers after about 6 months in country. That was only in our compound though, most of the time we were on patrol. You should have been an 11B Vic, I would have taken you on as one of my soldiers.

Sometimes I really wish I would have... Then a truck breaks down and I realize why I became a mechanic in the first place.

Driving is bad if you want to live, sneaking around at night on foot (aka looking for trouble)was our thing.All of the guys we lost were in vehicles, we had many more engagements on the ground, and we never lost a single man. The fact is that the US military is unbeatable on foot.Remember that an objective is never taken until there is Infantry on the ground. Did I ever tell you why the sky is blue?
