RE: RE: RE: Goldenrivet Now that's just plain funny. A tanker! You mean that boat that stays in the rear..away from the fight..and keeps all the beer, food, and oil on it. No wonder your so angry. Being a REMF ( rear echelon mother.....F ....) for a whole career..I'd be a little upset too. Floating around safely off-shore swilling beer, playing cards, hot food & showers every day, and snoring away in your nice warm bunk on a "tanker. Hardly constitutes combat service.
And now your a double dipping, milking the system, SHAD Naval Reservist ( Saturdays, Holidays, After Dinner). You surely sound like a confused young man.
You got one thing absolutely correct. I'm an old soldier. Seems that my COC believes that there is still value in training those so called "visionairies" & "grasshoppers". So I guess the only one being "milked" is me!
