If I'd been confused with that cock-shuffler, I'd be a little PO'd GScholz. ;)

Ripsnort - are you a vet of anything? No? Then why do you judge another's service?

Senility setting in, old one? You asked whether Airhead was a 'pencil pusher'. Not very respectful.

Monk: What did you do?

 What could be called an alpine recon detachment - composed of grunts with civilian mountain-climbing experience from different units.
 We mostly did intercept of caravans coming from Pakistan, counter-ambush on roads, scouting, spotting, countersniping, securing LZs, hunting for AAs, screening for larger operations. Basically, chasing mountain guerillas on their home grounds.

Insomnia, DMF, insomnia. Besides, I can't afford the repayments on my black helicopter and my CIA trained Mercs have formed a union and are demanding paternity rights.

We ought to pool our resources. So far I've discovered some really interesting intel:

1) Cabby probably voted for Bush in the last election

2) Grunherz probably never had a poster of Che Guevara on his wall at any time

How about you guys?
