Getting sent to ‘Nam with no flak jackets due to crappy diplomacy kinda sucked.

Baghdad in the summer, with a helmet, pack, flak, and 40lbs of SAPI plates sucked ass.
Afghanistan in the winter, with the same set up, was ok.

Bit too young but closer than I liked

My post was in the spirit of the others

Just messing around

My daddy graduated UW in June 1968. Shitty timing to be a PolySci major, frat bro without job prospects.

I am excited about this kid. Tough Dad's never breed pussies.

Then how do you explain the Baby Boomers coming after the Greatest Generation?

7-11 bitch

Boomers are far tuffer than anything that has followed. We had dads that were too busy drowning their memories of combat at the bottom of a bottle of whiskey to care about us other than smacking us around and predicting we would dig ditches for a living

We didn't even have cell phones

Yup. Baghdad is without a doubt a shithole. But 50k Americans KIA vs 4K is astounding. One KIA is a massive loss, a loss of a potential meaningful contributor to society to the world. 50k ambushed, booby-trapped, fighting in the jungle, venereal disease... man mind-boggling

Believe me I’m not complaining about Iraq vs Vietnam. Vietnam was a meat grinder and I’m glad I wasn’t old enough to go there. That said, you had hookers and booze, so... tie?

This is why we should be recruiting more kids out of Auburn. It was TOUGH not killing myself every day.

 

[NorwegianHusky]

I don't blame following generations for being jealous and blaming us for their shortcomings.

The inability to take responsibility for their own shitty decisions is one of the reasons they are deep in debt and living with their parents

I understand.

This is pretty ironic. Just gonna assume that's intentional.
