I have to apologize for Bighorn BoxBoy.  He is only 13 with no experience in life what so ever.  I on the other hand have no excuse since I am 16.

Take your poor old embrarrased PC self and butt out.

This thread was about a "stupid" aspect of a cartoon game...

The bill of rights gives you the right to this type of clueless diatribe, proving we can protect freedom of speech but not promote literacy or intelligent discourse. As others have noted your ignorance is showing....

BoxBoy im going to speak to you respectfully as much as i dont believe you diserve it, I have played this game for many years, and considering my backround i could have gone on many a "attention hunt" claiming he said she said he did etc... I have been offensivly belittled but the drivul that spews from your mouth is sad. You discount the story of a building of a nation in conflict.  This I do not appreciate, as i do not of your vulgar attitude towards oldman, dedalos, and bighorn.  You have no clue that your statements are contradictary. .....

OK, Boxboy, I'm taking my poor old embrarrased PC self out of here.  You can have the last word.

This thread has tough me a lot.  Big to everyone that was not afraid to get their hands dirty and responded as they did.  
It was interesting to see some of the people that got attacked here not say a word so that their virtual image would not get blemished and some that I considered friends just looked the other away.

I like you boxboy. You make me feel smart.


PS: Dedalos really is from Greece, and old.

You are right about history Ack-Ack, now look up how the US was spied on by Israel and also about the Communictions ship that was attacked by them, followed by an apology of how they "didn't know who we were".  I was in the service in 1962 where you;)

And your being in the service means exactly what?

My Father was in the service in the same time period as an Army officer and he would never have talked so stupidly and come across so arrogant and naive

Last I checked our history is fairly short compared to most of the world, and you come off like the rest of the world owes us a favor.

last I checked you do what's right because it's the best thing to do, not because you think you should get a cookie.  I'd like to believe that this country is like that, although it's hard to believe considering some of the idiots we produce.

Since you reference history often.  The "I was in the service in 1962" comment struck a chord.  Had to get out "Up Front" by Bill Mauldin cause it fit.  The combat vets I've spoken to over the years would not act as you.

A couple of his Willie and Joe cartoons that speak to the antagonist in this thread.

As much as I hate to interupt someone when they're making a complete fool of themselves, I notice that the aircraft discussed in the initial post carried "only" 2 light machineguns, and a single centrally located cannon.

Now if they were talking Yak 9Ts and P-39s vs A8s with 30mm cannons, I would think they would have developed slightly different tactics initially. I would also imagine that many fighter pilots considered themselves superior to their enemy (whether or not this was a well-founded belief is moot), and that such aggressive flying and pressing for shots wasn't considered suicidal.

But, I only fly cartoon airplanes, and none of this really matters, except to make for some, eh, interesting discussions.

I've always wondered why people will fly 5-10 minutes to an already capped base, drop from 10K, and then insisting on HO'ing me on take off.  You better believe I'll take it:D  They dont even come in on my 6.  Apparently I can't shoot them or something

Thanks for Kudos folks, since you all are so intelligent and so forth I will bow out.  I have no intentions of apologizing for my service to my country or for that matter for history itself.

I made a point about Isreal which was valid it was not ment to take away from the folks who struggled to form that country but rather to salute my own for that action they took at the time, and derserved credit for it.  It's too bad that 60 years later it is viewed as a worthless foot note to the Isrealis.

As far as Ded is concerned we just don't and never will I fear see eye to eye.

As for the rest of the commentators' you have a right to your opinions I just don't share them and thank God that there are others who see the world as I do.  I am not going any further with this thing since it would only prove how far left we gone.
