Love the vids Dan, thanks!
Special interest was the vietnam fighter jets clip that brought back some memories:
At the end of the Laos invasion and pull-back of S. Vietnamese forces that were slaughtered, leaving a trail of destroyed equipment, we were assisting in the retreat with large numbers of enemy all around us. They called in the heavy hitters that included air support and those pilots were awesome, dropping their payloads in VERY close proximity and keeping the N. Vietnamese off our asses a bit. Heading straight at a rock face mountain, firing rockets into caves on the wall and pulling up at the last instant. It was magnificent. And us guys on the ground who thought our situation was hopeless perked up and let out cheer after cheer. Those guys were the best.

That was all before GPS too. A-4's F-4's A-7's, A-6's, Thuds & Skyraiders and more were deadly accurate. Thanks for your service.

For Fuck's Sake... You're shitting on a forum member who had his friends and collogues murdered on the job AND shitting on forum members who are veterans that served their country. What in the complete sociopath fuck is wrong with you?

So my wife just informed me of a truly unsettling situation.

Her niece has a boyfriend, and it seems she assisted him in receiving >4,000us/month for PTSD....from boot camp. Never went to the field/fleet, never even went to his training....didn't finish boot camp.....but allegedly gets this ridiculous amount per month ...for boot camp.

Am I wrong to be a little upset by this?

I went through boot in 96, right as the silly chits came in....and we had to give them back.
The little time out cards? Anyone remember these? They were blue.

Anyway, not trying to shame anyone for mental health, at all.

I just don't see how this could be a thing .... especially considering those that could actually use that help, and don't apply.

Not trying to start anything, just don't understand it. I have older friends that served in Nam, and they never applied for shit. They would be pissed over this.

I am just blown away. Boot camp...... seriously. WTF?!?!

I'm a Vet, never filed for any disability. I despise the whole system. Fuck the government and their forms and rules and regulations.
 
I work with 3 guys who were actually disabled in combat. They are rated. None at 100%. There’s also a clown here who was a marine. Stateside for 4 years. Not disabled at all. Rated at 90%. The other 3 guys would like to beat his ass.

Now I am of the mind that if you served in the military you should never pay for health care for you or your family again. And if you were in combat you should get paid say the national annual median income for life. But until actual combat vets get treated right, fuck the ones gaming the system. Vet or not they’re freeloaders.

Funny thing, the leach I mentioned was Ex-Marine :rolleyes:

But this is a Veteran Appreciation thread, not a "who is playing the system" thread.

Me Neither

I worked with a dude who did 4 years, and got 100% for "PTSD" from watching a FLIR video of a bomb strike impact on a target over in the "Sand Box"...

I don't know how he knew which pixel was the Dude he claimed he saw, but it didn't matter...

Freeloader, Leach....

So he has PTSD from watching a video? Imagine if he went through watching people get their heads blown off in front of you? I thought about applying for disability, but the whole system just sickens me and I do whatever I can to stay as far away from the government as possible.
