cLyDe: Whew, those were pretty strong words, Capt'n.
Unlike some of the tree-huggers on this List, I, like you, have traveled that
long dark road to defend mom, apple pie, and dare I say it? Freedom and the
American way!
I gladly, and with honor, carry wounds to this very day that I received in the
line of duty defending this great country from the perils of Communism. No
thanks or kudos needed on this, but while I was a (Remington) Ranger,
Headquarters Co., 602nd ASA Group, stationed in Heilbronn Germany back in the
'deadly decade' of the '50s, I silently sacraficed too.
I was up at 600 hrs. every day to pound the keys of my trusty A1M1 Remington
typewriter, cutting orders, typing schedules, etc. Plus I had to keep the
Major's uniforms and shoes spotless and keep his oakleves shiny. It was a
never-ending task that I gladly undertook to do my part like you do.
That's when I developed rotator cuff problems from all that saluting and the
repetitive back-and-forth motion of getting down on my knees to shine the
Major's shoes and the hubcaps on his jeep.
But I. like you mein Capt'n, was never the complainer. Hell, once a month, the
Major and I even ate breakfast in the EM mess with the common soldier. We
choked down the powdered eggs, the gruel made with dehydrated milk, and stale
toast, before repairing to our HQ. mess for our usual 2 over easy, sausage and
hash-browns with home-made biscuits from scratch. Being the Company Morale
Officer, (read snitch) I=2
0can't begin to tell you what a lift in the mens' spirit that the Major's
visits with the troops made.
So cLyDe, keep up the good work, we'll sleep soundly tonight knowing that
you're out there, somewhere, doing your "grotesque and incomprehensible," job,
as you put it. Godspeed, and remember my friend, always 'Check 6'.
BTW, cLyDe, I think you use your computer keyboard better than a $100 dollar
hooker uses her tongue!
Yer pal, Shitbox Bubba

Son we live in world that has walls, and those wall have to be guarded by
en with guns. Who gonna do it? YOU? You Lieutenant?
I have greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom.
You weep for the weak, and curse Warriors. You have that luxury. You have
he luxury of not knowing what I know.
That the weak ones death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my
xistence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives.
You don’t want the truth because deep down, in places you don’t talk about
t parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall. We use words
ike honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as backbone of a life spent
efending something. You use them as a punch line.
I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who
ises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and
hen questions the manner in which I provide it.
I would rather
you just said thank you, and went on your way. Otherwise, I
uggest you pick up a weapon and stand post. Either way, I don’t give a damn
hat you think your entitled to.
Clyde
