      Care to explain why you've been fibbing to us?

      Oh, the clock is ticking.......:)

      WOW...

      As I sad I am in Stuttgart. I don't know why you are that interested in my life.

      I asked my father, where my uncle was. He don't know which unit, but he was in Gulf War. But he was never involved in an direct battle. (so I think he wasn't a ranger - my fault sorry.)

      I just wanted to know if it is true that the Armed Forces are underrated. I received an answer. Thats what I wanted. Nothing more.

      I will now take my time to study the member introduction.

      And again, thanks for your answers

        We're interested because you've made some VERY bold claims about having direct knowledge, and now you've doubled back on them. It doesn't look good, and this forum is no stranger to fakers.
        My advice would be to establish someone's credentials as genuine before passing on their opinions as gospel. That and you should do a little more research my man.

            why am I a faker??? I haven't done anything wrong. You want to kick me because I had a question? Isn't it normal to question something in forum???

            sorry that makes me angry, thanks to the guys who answered my questions. I'll look for another forum.

              He mentioned nothing about kicking you, not a single word to say so implicitly or explicitly. In other words, among all the other things we don't like around here that Spoon mentioned, we also don't like when others try to put words in our mouth. If such rules of etiquette-checking your sources before posting something outlandish, not putting words into people's mouths, and introducing yourself and your credentials so that we know who you are speaking to-if such rules are too much for you to understand as a grown 22 year old man, I'm not quite sure you should be joining any forum at all. We have Indirect Fire who is 13 and can still understand how to conduct himself. So what's the malfunction soldier?

                    Sir, was the Vietnam War not a limited war? I thought the reason they didn't win is that they didn't go all out. They didn't hit targets up north etc.

                    Someone correct me if I'm wrong here.

                      If I have a child with my long term girlfriend you can bet your ass he/she will be half Canadian. I as the father am Canadian my partner is Australian, my child will be half Canuck and half Aussie.

                      The reason is that my child will have claim to two distinct heritages to claim as their own.

                        I know it's not a big thing, its just an oddity I noticed over there, and one I didn't pick up on, up in Canada (I forget the French-Canadians, and even they according to OoE now prefere the term Quebecois. Neither have I picked up on it emmigrant heavy countries like Australia or New Zealand.

                        The Italians-Australians here in Carlton would disagree with that.

                          Thanks for that first time I laughed well all day!

                            The US did not bomb NV?

                            Why not physically attack is a question that some US person may like to answer.

                              Oh man, you should read this forum for my wisdom more often.

                              Thank you all. I'll be here all week.

                              And did you know we are all Mexican-Americans here in California every 5th of May so we can drink tequila and start soccer riots?
