If it is a real friend asking I will just say probably... But strangers and people I don't really know get a verbal beatdown.Response by SGT John Givans made Apr 11 at 2014 5:07 PM2014-04-11T17:07:07-04:002014-04-11T17:07:07-04:00SGT Anthony Pittman99475<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I just say "nope"... It normally moves the conversation on to something else... It's pretty easy.Response by SGT Anthony Pittman made Apr 11 at 2014 5:24 PM2014-04-11T17:24:03-04:002014-04-11T17:24:03-04:001SG Steven Stankovich273813<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I really don't like getting asked that question <a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="170954" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/170954-cw2-jonathan-kantor">CW2 Jonathan Kantor</a>. For the kids, I answer with something along the lines of "there were some tough times, but we all did our jobs real good and we brought everyone home." When it is someone I do not know, or someone I do for that matter, I ask them why do they want to know? I have yet to elicit a response worthy of me going any further in that line of questioning.Response by 1SG Steven Stankovich made Oct 11 at 2014 2:38 PM2014-10-11T14:38:22-04:002014-10-11T14:38:22-04:002014-04-10T18:39:01-04:00
