Stay on your meds and listen to your doctor (unless he's in on the gig.....). BTW, how's your shoulder ?


Ok, if you say so. :ROFLMAO:

The ole shoulder is doing fairly well thank you. Got into a little tussle bout a week or so ago and the tip of the shoulder and the collarbone/plate took a hit. Was sore as fuck for a few days but it's doing fairly well I think. The whack to the collarbone literally watered my eyes. The guy is still here. He apologized the next day after cooling off. :cool:
 
Remembering my friend and mentor John G Gertsch. Tiger Force, 1/327, 101st Airborne Div, 1968/69. A Shau Valley. The top photo was taken immediately after a hurricane let up enough to allow us out of our hasty positions. We were deep in the forests west of Veghel, on the eastern slopes of the A shau. The group photo was earlier when we were closer to Veghel, in forest that had been badly defoliated. John was awarded the MOH posthumously, for actions in 1969.

I hate to be a dick, but as political as all the non-valor, meritorious medals and ribbons are; the valor awards are just as political, and who puts it in/who witnessed it are even more important.

I don’t believe valor medals get awarded for no reason, but I know for a fact that guys do all sorts of crazy brave and selfless things that are never even reported, much less out in for a commendation. Every recipient wears it for a thousand guys who were never recognized.
IIRC Dakota Meyer said that he didn’t deserve his MoH but that EVERY guy in his squad did.
 
I knew Clinton Romesha when he was a little tyke. Who knew. His family lived in a tiny town, in Northern CA. His dad was my friend. Heck of a good guy, his dad.
Clinton Romesha, book "Red Platoon". Basically said, I was just trying to keep myself and my buddies alive. Really didn't know why he told he earned it.

yeah....im sure she really had to twist your arm for that one...

"honey can you go to home depot and get me some pipe for a stripper pole?"

Not so much the pole, as I'm betting he's got quite the "lights and sound" system. Not to mention the 'webcam' for the 'secondary income' type of setup. He'll probably have the mortgage paid off in 3 months, eh?
 
If I have to, I'll throw my hat in the ring to be your business manager. I'll bite the bullet, I guess.

:D

See, I too can step up when a brother is down, and in need. I don't need 'much' in the form of remuneration.... not much at all. For my troubles.

Such a burden.... HA

Forgot to add: Looks like I'm in the market for a new hat. One with a big feather. Where're ya'll gettin' yours from? Hook a brother up, eh? :D
