Never assume that the reason I am peaceful is because I have forgotten how to be violent. Does this apply to you?

We never do forget what we were trained for. I know damn right well when it comes down to protecting our Country, our families, our loved ones, our homes, our rights and freedom, we will all do whatever it takes! No one should ever underestimate what we are capable of.

It is sad that some of the Officers and NCO's that are promoted, do not know how to provide proper leadership or have the skills to perform at a higher level. Then when all else fails, they play 7 dash 5 on your ass. I am a Master Sgt and you are a Tech Sgt, so do it now and do it my way! Then when the old man comes around , that Tech Sgt sells your ass to the farm and tell the old this is the way you wanted it done but it is not the correct way. E-5 out beats E-7. If leadership was used, that E-7 and E-5 would worked together to make it the best way to do things.

SMSgt David A Asbury - I saw much of this kind of "weakness" when I was active duty stationed in Germany, NCO's and Officers were only interested in
how good they looked and how they could further THEIR careers and the soldier was left at the curb to train themselves, the real tragedy is that this went all the way up the chain so it was never kept in check. I watched many good soldiers lose faith in the system and just walk away when their "TIME" was up , so disgusted and full of anger and hate.

I am curious how many really know violence. Not just some bar fight but going out on an attack and end the life the others. I am sure you have but I have seen so many claim to be billy bad ass but few live up to it.

Captain, it has been my experience that most people do not know really how they are going to react until the shit hits the fan. Then and only then, you see what separates the men from the boys. Fortunately, or maybe unfortunately, I was trained early on to do what I had to do under adverse situations ever since I was 17 years old, when I enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1968 and went off to serve 2 tours as a Combat Vet in Nam. I learned early how to adapt and to overcome. Then I returned home in 1970 and was appointed to the NH State Police where I continued to Serve for 20 more years as a Law Enforcement professional.

I saw your time in Nam in your profile. I have no doubt that you have seen more than most of us could ever imagine. I have seen some soldiers on my return back stateside from my tour talk about how they were in the shit. They were in Kuwait. Give me a break.

Capt, you should read my book, UNIFORMS. It's the real deal! I was never able to talk about it, but I sure as hell did write about some of it. (http://www.uniformsthebook.com)
