Clinton, both Bushes and Obama all "forgot" or ignored the lessons learned than. President Obama did add to the risk by disallowing troops in combat areas to carry side arms on base, which emboldened the "friendlies" to act. Paul

We learned that in Vietnam, it's a shame that the lesson was forgotten by the last CIC with his unicorns,and rainbow view of the world.

And lets not forget Snoop Dawg shooting Trump in his video, Trump being burned in effigy, because as the Berkley professor said "We don't have him to burn . . yet. The crew of Morning Joe and Rachael Maddow both having 1/2 hour shows about the First lady being a the First Whore. Rosie, Bill Mahr and Conan all calling Baron Trump a little retard and the product of Trump screwing his daughter Ivanca.. Lets not forget Griffin not only doing the decapitation but when she heard Baron was upset, vowed to see "the little retard swinging from the pipes in the basement of the White House.Trump being stabbed to death in a NYC Shakespear in the Park .Normal people leave the children of anybody they dislike out of the equation..Don't see any of the media or others showing out rage, I guess just because it's Trump it's allowed If it was Obama and his family or Clinton and Chelsea there would be massive outrage and the rolling of heads.

1 Hour ago TEAMSTERGRRL SAID "Sad to see you bashing the good folks (many veterans) who work for and run the VA, but the VA is a model of successfully providing health care while controlling costs. This is largely because unlike Medicare, the VA is allowed to negotiate for the best deals on drugs, DME, etc.. The VA's problems are largely due to surges in patient loads thanks to the Afghanistan and Iraq wars" __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Since you have volunteered or worked at the VA and know how wonderful the services are at most facilities, Maybe you could tell us where they are? The VA Centers in Northport L.I. , Charlotteville and Richmond Va,, Portland and Saco, Maine, the one in Manchester N.H and Boston Ma. all have a crap rating. 3 to 10 week wait for priority treatment, The suicide hotline in Northport that put callers on hold or hung up,one Gulf Vet came to the counter in Portland because she felt suicide was the only answer and was told to come back is a few hours as the counselors were all busy, shot her self in the parking lot. But thank god the staff were in a union so they don't worry about their jobs and can concentrate on helping the vets. The operator was given a position of less responsibility, not fired or charged. Most all vets I know( myself included) go there as a last resort. Maybe the ones you run" the numbers on" are better. The Vets are now good folks to you? Since the 60's we were all sh*t to you. Why now? Because Pelosi and Perez say the Democrats are the only party who ever cared about Veterans and now you need our votes? What bull sh*t.

When my grandson and his doper pal stole two of my funny car engines and sold them to a scrap dealer for a few bucks. I was going to pressed charges for stealing 100,000 worth of engines. My daughter-in-law and son suggested that I sit down and talk with him and explain it was "not a nice thing to do". I did, through the police car door and the state jail cell visitors phone. I told him when he gets released in 5 years, he'll still have to deal with me. As for people on drugs, we has a lieutenant who was+ stoned all the time in country and twice barely missed getting all of us killed because he was too stoned to react..He got fragged,.. dope problem solved.

Happy Belated!

Some people are not what you would expect! Doctor Ruth the nice little lady,was a sniper in Israel with confirmed kills and Queen Elizabeth was a motor mechanic in WWII

I'm not allowed to drink...last time I did,(in 1975), I fell up the stairs holding the keys and registration to my wifes new Corvette. Unfortunatly I left the house with her new El Dorado. Paul

Myself and quite a few others wish we could be there in person to see grandma's face! Closest we've ever gotten to N Dak was Sturges many, many years ago before the posers took over. Looking forward to the video. Look in my gallery here and see if you'd tackle my AC Crane carriers. Took me a year to weld up all the cracks on one chassis. Want to do it, Ill bring cookies and milk..

Read the book Sole Survivor by Ensign George Gay retired. It tells Torpedo Eights story and his survival.

One thing with Merkle and many other EU members, they want our money but otherwise want us out of their decisions and policies. The anti American views are mainly German, because they do not like Trump. Germany and some EU members even want their own common defense forces and NATO limited in some of the EU member countries.

I saw one of the at the Hersey Swap meet for sale three years ago.. I thought it was very well done and looked really correct. The one being sold had a $3700.00 price on it. The sell said it was non negotiable.

The standard B Clariben is tough to find. I've been searching for a few years. BUT, I saw at a Rat Rod show last year a B Model on a Dodge Ram 5000 series that the stock B model fenders the were hinged at the headlight panels and opened like a door. The C set up would probably be an easy adaptation.

I did not say that they should not be included. I said the government moves at their own pace. Maybe if John Kerry, John McCain and Oliver Stone would be more vocal and forward (as three of the most highly decorated men of the war every body listens to them) If the American citizens would do something positive for them as in letters, petitions or calls to aid their being recognized? As combat vets we try to take care of our own for most all needs and honor.... even our so called enemies No one else gives a crap for any Vietnam vet.. It is the politicians and most civilians who have the problem with doing whats right. .Have you or any of your people done anything at all? Even spend a few minutes to do anything more than thoughts and links? My VVA post has. FYI the Evans was under Command of the U.S. Military Assistance Command, Vietnam, CINPAC ordered the Evans to be released to the U.S. Pacific Fleet Command who assigned the Evans and 5 other ships to work with the Australian Navy. It had no involvement with SEATO.

Because according to the DOD and the USPACOM the Evans was removed from the gun line off the coast of Vietnam and moved out of the combat zone for Operation Sea Spirit. with 5 other Destroyers and the Melbourne So in the Feds eyes they were no longer in harms way. . Eventually they'll get recognized. It took 65 years for the WAC's and U.S. Merchant Marine to get WWII veteran status and benefits .Took 40 years for us to get "welcomed home" here . Like teamstergrrl stated awhile back all of us, the kiiws and Aussies were there because we were stupid. As for the news all the Vietnam news of the day heard in the U.S. was bullsh*t to make the soldiers ,pilots and Naval personnel that were in country look like baby killers and dopers. That's how we were portrayed by the media and likewise greeted coming into S.F. by the people, the media and the government.

The M917 dump I'm looking at has the U.S. DOD spec set up on it. I thing it's a good thing.

That was on the news here today. Their families are requesting they be included on the Wall.

Tire inflation set up. The Scannia you looked at had the same thing.

But hamstergrrl says it's false and old fake news and the country isn't like that..Just another blunder by me.

The DM 6 series had a deeper "fish-belly" chassis and had taller heavier frame rails, Larger capacity rears 50,000lbs and up most with Camel Back suspension and heavier capacity steer up to 12,000 lbs. Cab and nose is the same unless the DM had the Steel nose with the butterfly hood. DM Chassis specs second from bottom left page. http://

How did telling me I made up the Congressional record turn into polluted water and air, no education and slave labor? Don't forget the rest of the standard rhetoric about the children and poor illegals

Communism is dead in most of the world but is has been replaced by Social Democrats, The government controls or regulates most all services,Water, Food, Energy, Education, favors and promotes unions and most media is pro S.D. but they allow business and property ownership and free trade as long as they severly regulate and tax it. Here is the Britannia link (a non reliable link as per her, probably tied to Trump) https://www.britannica.com/topic/social-democracy It is interesting that the January 10 Congressional record is considered fake news by her. I can only assume that Albert S. Herlong Jr was laying the ground work for fake news and Trump? Or isn't it approved revisionist history? Or a carefully faked record in the Congress' archives? Bernie :Cheech" Sanders is not a Communist, his is a Socialist and Hillary the "President Select" is as she stated "a Progressive Democrat or PDA" . Like our little ray of doom and gloom. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_Democrats_of_America
