Well, I'm changing my MOS and I can't decide between:
Cav Recon
Military Police
Military Intelligence CI with a line unit.
Vote!

You're active duty?

Not anymore.
NG now.

What about MOSC 11B1O and using those skills to help out in Iraq?

That's what I am now.
Of course, if you'd asked before you trolled, you'd know that.
-
I'd say Military Intelligence CI with a line unit. If you can get the security clearance.

Probably now even have the Bradley in Reserves/NG instead of the 113. May even get to ride one of those dirt bikes around.

Who's trolling? I'm not.
I gave you my reply based on my take on some of your posted stances on political/military issues and mostly on your support for the invasion of Iraq. I figured you were asking in order to get yourself into action over there. Kind of like an honorable "putting your money where your posts are" kind of thing.
So perhaps they have a surplus of your particular MOSC and maybe they need more, say, prison guards? I guess one of those MOSC's would be a good choice.
-
Oh. Sorry. I thought you were trolling. I didn't realize that you were just ignorant on military topics.
You can go overseas with almost any MOS, if they send you.
-
I know they can send you but I know you can request a transfer to unit heading there too.
Are you waiting to be sent? Looking for an MOSC that would increase the odds?
Or you just haven't asked for a transfer to an active duty unit over there? Given your extreme pov I just can't imagine you hadn't requested a transfer at least once by now. It's been over two years.

What is my 'extreme pov' you are trolling about?
I've earned combat pay, thanks for asking.

"I've earned combat pay"
I did too over 20 years ago. But that and your answer are irrelevent. Or has posting here on an almost daily basis been considered hazardous duty worthy of combat pay in your unit?
To be quite blunt your reply insinuating you've been "over there" (otherwise why even say it?) is a virtual slap in the face to all who have or are honorably receiving combat pay for duty in Iraq and Afghanistan since 9-11.
But you still dodge and sidestep the questions. How can anyone help you with a new MOSC if you refuse to elaborate and clarify your reasoning or goals for looking for a new MOSC? Are you looking to help that effort in Iraq or trying to avoid it?

For someone who "earned combat pay" you're pretty unknowledgeable about the military.
Insinuating I've been to the middle east? Where? I've never been. I guess when you have zero knowledge about the military, you aren't familiar with what is or isn't a combat zone or meets eligibility. Pretending you've even served is a slap in the face to those who have.
You still didn't answer my question. What is this "extreme POV" you spoke of during your trolling?
Does it have anything to do with the hypocrisy you display by trolling off topic in this thread, while condemning the same behavior in another?

AHHHH, so regardless what your views on the Iraq war are, if you're a republican than those views are extreme and wrong.
Thanks, Krusher.
-
So, back to the topic, I could go recruiter, too, but I've pretty much ruled that out.
-
MP, my uncle parlayed that into a long law enforcement career.

Come on Krusher maybe you should have just one less after work scotch?
"Extreme POV" can be radical *left* or *right* wing. You and Krusher can put the "Rove spin" on it all you want. On this board most of the etemes that are left are neo-cons. That would apply to both of you. The neo-liberals left or have been banned from the boards for the most part.
In your case Martlet you can play coy all you want. IMO only someone of an extreme pov would boast about almost hitting an anti-war protestor with your car on purpose or that you'd cancelled corporate accounts with several French owned businesses back when French bashing was so in "vogue" here. And that's just a couple of examples of the early stuff. You kept that extreme neo-con thing rolling ever since these boards fractured starting with the Iraq invasion and continueing on thru the last election .
As for trolling? I'm not. You're simply incapable of not attacking any reply to you which doesn't line up on your side of the fence. And when that doesn't work you'll lamely try to label the poster as a troll. Essentially anything you can do other than give a direct, civil answer to a direct, civil question.
-
I understand this is probably a tough concept for you to grasp. I'll try to help you out, though. If it's the actual definitions of the words you aren't getting, tell me which ones and I'll explain them to you.
Let's try again....

I'm going to law school in a year, so while I wouldn't be getting into law enforcement, I still might find an interest.
-
Predictable. You're doing a cawd awfull Al Jolson tap dance routine.
Anything to keep from answering the questions though right? I'm not in the least off topic. You keep trying to steer it that way though.
So again. Is your change to a new MOSC to aid in getting to Iraq so that you can show you are "willing to make that sacrifice" as "Talk is cheap." (your own words back in 2003) Or is the new MOSC to help you from going there?
Anything less than a direct answer I will accept as a solid "Damn it Yes! I DO want others to go. Because I am completely incapable of backing up my pompous rhetoric in person and would rather spew the party line and conservative radio mantra on some webboard from the safety of my living room back in the States."
