Rich!    :rofl

Gunslinger.   Hold onto your GI Bill.   It appears Aqua is wasting his parent's money while in College.   

Oh yeah, I thank you for serving Guns.    :salute    I never did, was extremely close, but chose the edumacation route.   I appreciate what you guys do, unlike "some".

Who cares? What a crass, uncaring, troophating statement. It's pretty obvious that you have never served in ANY branch of the U.S. military or you WOULD care.

Karma builds upon your soul (BadKarma). Im more than worried because I know those waters are hazardous even to some one completely prepared to deal with it.

Figured it must have been some low level work.  There have been a couple of Buff crashes from pilot hot-dogging on the deck.

The point of my statement was to illustrate that some of the ejection seats of the B-52 fire downward.  You better use your GI bill to go to college, because I can tell your dumb as hell.

It's "you're". Einstien.

Apparently, one in five people in the world are Chinese. And there are five people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother, Colin. Or my younger brother, Ho-Chan-Chu. But I think it's Colin. - Tim Vine.

I fail to see how i should feel anymore compassion for these airmen than a ship that gos down getting alaskan crab and takes a few men with it. Get over it, or blame the designer who figures it would be best to have two seats fire below the falling* aircraft.

or jump on the hate ship and pretend its all my fault.  :rock  :D

If the plane was indeed flying that low, you all know dang well nothing but meat and torn clothing will be found (if anything) a body going at 500+ mph and impacting water/ground has a very..erhm..lasting effect. lets just hope death came quick if it came at all. And no, if it was a family member of mine, who was apparently too busted up to walk home after ground fall, i would not want them to survive. I remember where a airman ejected and the force was so violent it inbeded his shoe laces into his feet bones. I thought each seat has a tracking beacon on them, so pilots could be found in a (general) area making recovery quicker.

No thank you, like i said, if death came, i hope it was quick, and that these airmen are NOT laying somewhere busted and broken up, bleeding to death inside, slowly. or worse drowning while this all happens.

feel any better?

Wow bk. The nicest thing I can think of to say is that you really should go somewhere else. Don't go away mad, just go away, soon.

I'll second Slash's sentiment. It's damn good not to be you.
DEFINITION OF A VETERAN

Those servicemen, whether engaging in flight for a parade, or taking off to deliver bombs are there in support of your freedoms. I support them in their duties just as I support your right to your freedoms. If no one served then where would your freedoms be? I can tell you; your freedoms would be completely sucked away by tyrants, dictators, and other scum. If you dont support the troops of this country then you dont deserve your freedoms. Thats my view and its my freedom to view things that way thanks in whole to troops of this nation both past and present.
