I knew several of those guys back in the day. They were friends I went
to school with, relatives, etc. Why do you act like it was a big, bad
deal? It was Vietnam, rank was easy to make, it was a real world.
You have no idea what that time was like, you impotent pretender.

The thing about you, Ken, is you've always tried to get through the
Looking Glass into a world that could never be yours. It's always been
about guns, war, Intelligence, conspiracy, law enforcement, silly cars
for old men who want to feel young again, but unable to admit when
they were young, they were just as forgettable and left out. You, Ken,
have been reduced to running aliases on Usenet, posting pictures of
financed cars and thinking that being an E5 or whatever in the Navy,
40 years ago, conveys status on the 300 pound, 5'6" flounder that you
are.
