There's a ton of great content out there dealing with military subject matter (training / operations-related, motivational, entertaining & educational, historical, etc.); the idea is to have a fun and thought-provoking discussion, and to learn a thing-or-two while we're at it. If you can remember details but not the title; no worries, just post a description, and we'll activate the RP network to help find it. Here we'll discuss those defining sources that influence us, our culture, as well as public perception and opinion... sort of a representation of the "art-imitates-life, life-imitates-art" concept. Well, there's certainly some memorable content out there, I have my favorites and I'm sure that that you all do too. So, strap on your seatbelts, pull-up a keyboard, and let's get this thing started; thank you for all that you do, and... see you all in the discussion threads!

Col (Join to see) 1LT Sandy Annala When I watched the Pacific and the Medal of Honor winner died, he did so unceromonially and that to me, makes his story all the greater. He was willing to put all that he had on the line for a task few in their right mind would relish. Sgt John Basilone made me proud to be a veteran.

After being spit on and cussed at, this felt good and to know that fighting personnel did this for me and all of us. How cool is that? Along with my officer uncle who was the most decorated man in one of the world wars. And that tank at the VFW in honor of him, I knew the service was right for me.
