You obviously ran afoul of the UCMJ a few times and decided to lay the blame for it on the military justice system, rather that accept responsibility for your own misdeeds. As far as the two cases you cited, those lowlifes have admitted to being involved with the horse shooting. They deserve whatever they get. As far as the case of the Marine aviator, I hope evidence proves him innocent, but that aircraft and that cable car obviously weren't supposed to be sharing the same air space, so somebody or something fucked up and it wasn't the 20 people that died in that cable car.
While your experience in the military may have been as "a second class citizen" and an "obsequious sychophant"(correct sp.), mine couldn't have been any further from that. I've done and seen things that you, in your narrow little life, could not even dream of. I have experienced first hand, the Pyramids of Giza and the Valley of the Kings. I have enjoyed a production of Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' on a warm summer evening , within the grounds of Warwick Castle, not 20 miles from Stratford on Avon. I have hunted wolves under a full moon, in the Amanos Mountains on the Syrian frontier of Turkey. In 1992, I delivered a paper on land mines to the Royal College of Defense Studys at King's College, Cambridge. I've watched the sun set over Ayer's Rock in the Northern Territories and I've watched the sun rise over Stonehenge on the morning of the Vernal equinox. I've walked the streets of pre-China Hong Kong. I was there that night in October 1989 to witness the opening of the Berlin Wall. I joined friends from the Greek military on a dig in the ruins of a 900 years old monastery on the western coast of Greece near Patras. While I am now retired from the military, the experience and knowledge I gained there have served me well. I am currently involved in a project that is significant to this country's defense which will be successful in spite of the mechinations of our current President. I am now married to a beautiful Irish lady that I met while serving as a liason to the German Luftwaffe in Cologne, Germany. In two weeks my wife and I will be enjoying a peaceful vacation on Ambregis Cay, off the coast of Belize.
Life is good.
I'm sorry yours sucks. |
