Posts: 5119Point of information
I served but I sucked at it and both the Army and I were really glad to part company and I get the never ending gyreen / squid thing but I had an Uncle who served for 26 years, retired as an E-9 did three tours in Vietnam, was in Korea at the end, was in Berlin during the airlift, won a bronze star for valor and he used to always say he was retired military and I'm most fucking sure he was never "less than particularly proud" of his service. Not everybody needs to compensate for having a micro penis by letting everybody know they were a fucking gyreen.

He also let the cat out of the bag, he doesn't even live in Orlando. You just have to look through the first page of his posts to see he posts all over the country on a daily basis.
Sorry he's disabled, but guess he's got nothing else to do all day (when he's not in the closet) but sit behind his keyboard and interject his wisdom all over the country! LOL!

You better go grab YOUR tights and cape - - they're right there in the closet where you left them - - you're boyfriend in the closet probably has them on.

While I agree with your last three paragraphs, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE anyway!

I assumed she meant B52, and didn't think much of it.

Posts: 3314I was a company commander there back in the day when they ran boots out of RTC. Just visited the area a year or so back, and wow! They sure built up a nice neighborhood there.

It pisses me off when they say "Thank You for your Service". That's not what they were saying during Vietnam when I served.

Posts: 337B 53 as per Wiki
Wiki:
B53 nuclear bomb.
The Mk / B53 was a high-yield bunker buster thermonuclear weapon developed by the United States during the Cold War. Deployed on Strategic Air Command bombers, the B53, with a yield of 9 megatons, was the most powerful weapon in the USA Nuclear arsenal after the last B41 nuclear bombs were retired in 1976.
The B53 was the basis of the W-53 warhead carried by the Titan II Missile, which was decommissioned in 1987. Although not in active service for many years before 2010, fifty B53's were retained during that time as part of the "hedge" portion of the Enduring Stockpile until its complete dismantling in 2011. The last B53 was disassembled on 25 October 2011, a year ahead of schedule.
With its retirement, the largest bomb currently in service in the USA Nuclear arsenal is the B83, with a maximum yield of 1. 2 megatons. The B53 was replaced in the bunker-busting role by a variant of the two-stage B61 nuclear bomb.

Well, that would make you wrong. I'm pretty sure that's not an unusual state of affairs for you, but yeah, I actually retired from the military back in the late 1990's. Here's the thing:

This whole thing about "protecting our freedom" in Afghanistan -- are you joking? I'm worried about a lot of shit, but being invaded by Afghanistan ain't one of them.
I'm also not a fan of every business having some "veteran" slant. I'm a disabled vet, and I did my time and I get my benefits. I don't need everyone thanking me for my service or running around with "support our troops" stickers all over their cars. I made a deal with the government and kept up my end. Now they can keep theirs.

NO, there isn't. I didn't want to point that out since she clearly worked so hard to type it up. Guess granddad was flying nuclear bombs. LOL

Posts: 3314Wow.
You REALLY aren't the sharpest crayon in the box, are you? So you are a great mom (I'm sure you have some tights and a cape laying around somewhere), and you seek validation for all that on a hooker board? Let's give some more thought about who's pathetic?
