Yea, I could see that happening in an airport. Lot of traveling military. Especially Charlotte.

 

There are rules, and there are exceptions. You've long-qualified as the latter.

Allowing your poor wife on here was a bold move, but manners were minded, and we appreciated the info.

Great to see too back and sharp as ever, friend.

 

Only time I ever see anyone is lunchtime when guys come off the base at Tys. Did see a bunch from air force yesterday at lunch.

 

This isn't Nam, Smokey.

 

I did not allow her on here, she does what she wants. I appreciate the minding of manners, although she seemed disappointed no one tried to flirt with her.

 

Heard of an ingenious stolen valor detector, ask someone to stand with their feet together.

 

I think half of these are legit mental illness. The other half legit scum.

 

Agreed. Many are more like Don Quixote than actually trying to get something out of it.

 

Do an about face. As easily as it can be found on YouTube, I bet it'd still get about a 75% fail rate.

Ask definition of deadly force would be better.

 

Some of us have become too top heavy in old age to execute a smooth about face.

 

Easy for you guys to weed them out. It's joe civilians like me who are typically being manipulated.

 

Damned fair. Carry on.

 

No, you'd spot 95 out of 100, just because you'd take the time to really look at it.

It's the legit Vet who claims to have killed people with a crossbow / bare hands / improvised explosive / extended staring contest while in 'Nam / Desert Storm / Inherent Resolve that you'd need any special knowledge to sift out.

 

I've known when people's uniforms don't make sense, so I suppose there is that. Rarely do they have the right footwear.

 

I was never in the military, but two years of ROTC would allow me to pass any test of drill

 

Had a shop teacher in jr. high school... We just knew him as Col Nett and knew he was Army but he never talked about his service, just made sure we knuckleheads didn't hurt ourselves or each other...

Cool as hell.

 

Legit badass.
