its ok Nic just opening a dialog here....lol
I still think Dam Dam is avoiding the issue of serving his country.....I can't blame him... He does not want to die...but I think anyone that enjoys the spoils of war should go see it first hand...

Galveston was a rough place to go to school has it change any?
I lived in Kerrville too. I have lived all over Texas but I left to go to school in Arkansas then followed Clinton's presidency...and moved to Canada when Bush got in.

Hey Blue, when did you go to Kerville?... I grew up in Cibolo, thats northeast San Antonio.

I went to HS 1981 at Tivy in Kerrville...wow it is a small world...

[Marlboroman]

the cost of war is crazy...stop and consider that when a soldier dies, the family is entitled to at LEAST 100k in SGLI, thats just the min coverage, most upped it to 200k with the war. And how about each time a milti million dollar tank, or BFV, gets blown up or whatever...the cost is unfathomable.

the really sad thing is all the injured soldiers that are forgotten and are not getting help after returning home. I find it disgusting...soldiers many with severe injuries, are given little help to gain access to military doctors.
I have read about injured soldiers sometimes having to pay their own medical bills or going into debt because their active-duty tours end and they are physically unable to go back to their civilian jobs.

As of April more than one-third of injured soldiers who applied to have their benefits extended were denied....Yet they can pay those civilian contractors millions!

And why do they always bring the soldiers home under the cover of darkness?
