Flag officers to meet in DC Tuesday
PowderRiverCowboy replied to Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
Like what a email ? that loses meaning or doesnt get read ohh a Teams /zoom meeting that you can literally fall asleep in. I just had to tell a Airman that said their oath didnt say "obey orders from those higher " So I call BS get them there and hear it first hand hold them to the fire Did you watch the entire speech ? I didnt most wont same as remote. Everyone saying could have done this or that , why are you covering for a group in combat that would not deploy with the unit but fly into Kuwait and check in on say today and stay until tomorrow? Do you know why they did this? Combat pay and untaxed paycheck for 2 months , we couldnt do that ever. -
I could be wrong but you can ship private to buyer BUT has to go through FFL on buyers end ?? Never actually sold a firearm, myself.

That was a big one, as well as across the board Personal Hygiene standards for men and woman No more Air Farce can do this why cant we? It also holds Staff officers to the Physical standards and the common soldier (age taken into account) there is zero reason some obese General (Austin) that stays in 40 plus year that cant walk a mile in a Kit gets a pass when that E-6 Grunt soldier would be kicked to the curb . Same reason I took a medical board from combat If I cant keep up and do the job I need to I need to leave and let someone that can do it. This is the Military not a corporation that you can get carried in , Our main job is to destroy the enemy . If you cant do that get out, to many officers have to much $$ riding on prolonging a war "Hey General OBL is confirmed here. no hold we will send other unit" Fun Fact we could have ended Afghanistan within weeks if let off the lease. -

So after seeing about the NC Marine shooter He has a book on Amazon. This is the intro. the books name is ; Headshot: Betrayal of a Nation (Truth Hurts Book 2) Sean DeBevoise learned early on growing up in New York State that he was bound to be a man of honor. Hunting in the Catskill Mountains with his father, Sean learned about nature, focus, and ultimately, survival. During high school, he was a wrestler, and that's when he met Rachel, the woman who would ultimately become his wife and be the centerpiece for an unconventional tale. After the attacks of 9/11, Sean knew that his only course of action was to serve his country. Joining the Marines, he found a mental and physical challenge that he planned to excel at. Although he sensed the behavior and many things said by fellow Marines to be disturbing, he willingly deployed to Iraq where he encountered a war-zone that would rip his body to shreds. Taking four bullets including one to the head, Sean's life would never be the same, but it was the fact that all of this was at the hand of friendly fire that would provide the most crippling mental damage. Sean DeBevoise was nearly killed by his own Marines, and for reasons that are boggling to the outside mind. Putting the pieces together still today, Sean has come to realize that a dangerous web was woven between the US Marines, a hunger for honor, and jealously that traced all the way back to his family at home. Sean killed insurgents on that fateful day when he was locked in a warehouse and left to die by his own men. Returning home, the nightmare seemed to become even more horrifying. Although he has worked tirelessly to recover the use of his body and to reclaim his life from those who did everything in their power to take it from him, he still grapples with a mysterious story that the US military doesn't want you to know. This is Sean's story, and it's being told for the first time with unflinching honesty. https://www.amazon.com/Headshot-Betrayal-Nation-Sean-DeBevoise-ebook/dp/B08HWC7MPV/ref=sr_1_1?tag=brooklinextap-20&crid=2OP4KAVDYBG5X&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.e9slRXa45rhxPwwyor1Vrw.1olTKNwsEjyc7GHn1Wsl0FjxDiCAKWUn-goLcrtykaQ&dib_tag=se&keywords=sean+debevoise&qid=1759081455&sprefix=sean+debevoise,aps,84&sr=8-1&asc_refurl=https://www.newsobserver.com/news/local/article312297067.html&asc_source=Google&ascsubtag=0000TP0000346442O1536069520250930012919

Edge served in the Marines from 2003 to 2009 under the name Sean William Debevoise. He changed his name to Edge after leaving the service. In the Marines, Edge reached the rank of sergeant, according to his service record, which was provided to Task & Purpose. Marine Corps records indicate that he served as both an infantry assaultman and a reconnaissance Marine. “Infantry assaultman” was a heavy weapons and demolition-focused military occupational specialty, or MOS, within Marine Corps infantry units that was discontinued in 2020. Edge deployed to Iraq from January to August 2005 and again from March to May 2006. No details were available on Edge’s operational career, but his military awards indicate that he saw combat while in uniform. His awards and decorations include the Purple Heart, Combat Action Ribbon, Iraq Campaign Medal with two bronze stars and Marine Corps Good Conduct Medal. His last duty assignment was with Wounded Warrior Battalion East, II Marine Expeditionary Force at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina. Edge wrote in a self-published book he sold on Amazon, “Headshot,” that he also deployed to Haiti in 2004, but no deployment matching that description was mentioned in service records provided by the Marine Corps. A 2007 story on Edge in the Star-News of Wilmington interviewed Edge as he underwent treatment for a head injury suffered in Iraq. The newspaper said Edge had been shot in the head in Iraq, and the bullet remained in his brain. Doctors, the newspaper said, had told him he would walk with a cane.

I agree, and well not condoning it , BUT the years of making White males the "Racist, Fascists, Nazis, Garbage , A threat to democracy" and so on will take a toll on Combat vets from OIF and OEF to push them into watch this mode.

He never said 5'2" inches tall and I thought we cancelled Christmas this year (sorry just personal rather forget Christmas past New Years ) Of course he never said female either -
Do you ? I mean i still look at overpasses even driving down the road , Iraqis loved overpasses. SA( Situational Awareness) isnt to common in the USA as it really should be. There are several US habits that are wrong from a tactical standpoint.

Why well in SD if you have a CCW , The Feds accept this instead of having to wait for a Proceed when you Purchase, Basically fill out the form and pay and leave.
