You know about 0 when it comes to Police and why they become such, your posts solidified my opinion on that. Thank you...
A chef and a nurse... really...?
'The caliber of persons that you and I associate with'... You mean POGs v. infantry...I thought you sounded stuck up...
Every Marine Ive ever talked to has said one of those 2 reasons, and a majority of the Army pukes (even though their uniforms are disgusting)
if anyone cares, i've met quite a few air force personel. they have to be the absolute best bunch of people i've ever met. including a couple of the thunderbirds when it was raining last year, keeping them on the ground.
i've dealt with Security Forces personel on mcguire afb, tanker pilots, tower personel, boomers, and even one guy, that i don't know what he did.....but he had an aircompressor, and i needed it.......he was beyond helpful to me that day, and almost jumped at the chance to help me.
i met the guy that got to fly the c-17 in the air show last year at mcguire. i have a customer;s car here right now....he flys f-16's out of atlantic city.
these are the highest caliber people i've ever met.
oo...and at the last airshow, one of my cadets came running up to me telling of how some guy got up and walked away from where he was watching the airshow. he left a rather large paper bag there. i went with him to a couple of security forces guys, who very patiently listened to this kid.......then they went and checked it out. it turned out to be nothing. but the two officers that we originally spoke with sought out this cadet, and made sure that they told him how good of a job he did, being that alert. that made his day.
