I'll bet you my CMOH from Vietnam (or something) that this one never makes it out of the bullpen. But at least someone is still talking about it.

You only have one? Wow, I have 2 or 3 laying around...and a CIB with 5 stars... :hysterical:

Honestly though, I still think they should let this issue be dealt with "in house." These jerks always get exposed and sometimes in front of the wrong crowd...my favorite was a guy some years ago that claimed to be part of SEAL Team 6 to a young lady in a bar...a couple of real deals overheard the conversation...better than any punishment meted out by some stinking law...

It's terrible that people can claim whatever they want. Guys like me, that stormed the beaches of Costa Negra, think it's crap. I risked my neck saving Lt Holowachuk, and somebody else can lie about it? BS.

Just so people know, I did in fact serve in the United States Marine Corps, I didn't really see action abroad.
I was relating from an episode of Major Dad.

Pffft. People like those perps need to take a class. I always had much better luck with the ladies telling them that one of my late, distant uncles had made millions with his invention of the 'scratch and sniff' sticker, and had left me in his will. I told them I was kinda loaded, and had the worlds most comprehensive scratch and sniff sticker collection, and that I was doing research for the latest sticker, "scent of a woman". :hysterical:

See, you have to be more creative than "I was a SEAL and once kicked Chuck Norris' a$$". Just sayin'.

Well, the guy certainly got more than he bargained for...a chance to show this young lady just how bad he was...it didnt work out too well though...all that training he never had... :whistle:

Regarding scratch and sniff collection, I could get quite creative with that trying to pick up women... :hysterical:
