What would you say is the % of Poli Board posters who are abject chicken hawks who never served their country?

I'm guessing it's north of 95%.

USN here, btw. You're welcome for the freedom, even if you went and wasted it on tRump.


US Army, 1991-1998.

I held a security clearance at one time. Which is exactly why I MAGA'd.

It's George Patton's birthday right?

Yes, but he was already 33 years old at the time in question.

Speaking of which, Hillary was the candidate openly advocating acts of war. Not Trump.

But hey, don't let facts get in the way of this little narrative you've built for yourself. Drive on.

I did not serve, but I hold our military in the highest regard and me and my family our thankful for the sacrifice that the military men and women as well as their families have made for this country.

That was appalling during the debate when she actually committed ground troops to Syria.

Patton was badly wounded on September 26. He wrote Beatrice, "Missing half my bottom, otherwise alright."

He rejoined his unit on 11/11/18, his birthday.

Yeah, recruiters promise all kind of shite to get your name on the line that is dotted.

Then, when you get fricked over it's "for the good of the service".

Every time someone uses this line of stupidity to me, my response is always the same:

My taxes ALSO pay my salary, and likely at a higher rate and volume.

Patton was brevetted up to full colonel by 11/11/18.

After the war he reverted to captain for a day and then was promoted to major, a rank he held for 14 years.

Under the National Defense Act of 1920, the tanks were placed under the Infantry branch. Patton reverted back to the Cavalry.

Then explain yours. I had a father that served, a brother that served and a father-in-law that was a Korean POW for 38 months so don't come on here after me with your sanctimonious military bullshite.
