They put their ass on the line for us and the countries that they "visit". Bet you dollars to doughnuts that the host country that is so offended isn't paying shit for the protection that we give them. God bless the US military.


Well, I was in the Navy for a while. Stationed in the Philippines, Japan and Iceland, TAD to Korea, travel stops in Italy and Spain.

Admittedly, I was an animal-in-training in the PI, but I showed a little respect for the country and it's people, yes even in the bars. You can have fun without being a complete asshole about it and giving Americans in general and the United States in particular a bad name.



Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.
