I think your post was maybe TIC?

But, I believe that any person who devotes
his life and time (past or present) in any branch
of the armed services, is a true treasure to our nation.

That is the most ignorant statement I have ever read, it doesn't even merit a response, other than "Wow are you for real?"

Obviously it merited a response, you responded.

Anyway don't worry, we Army guys do appreciate, our "Support" branches.

Well, I would love to be the fly on the wall when you walk in to a bar full of Marines or Navy Seals and call them a "Support Branch."

The Pacific theater of World War 2 was won because a support branch wiped the Imperial Japanese Navy and Merchant shipping from the seas, while carrying marines from island to island.

Don't get me wrong, I like the Army, almost joined it until my dad talked me into joining the Navy,

Every body does their part. I was on a nuclear submarine. I don't recall supporting the Army once. I do remember the ineptitude of the soldiers on an Army tug in the Azores when they dented our boat. Whose idea was it to give grunts a boat in the first place?

Yep, without the Navy and the Airforce you guys are just all dressed up and no where to go.

My dad was in he Navy during WWII. He spent three years on a Destroyer (USS Lange) in the Pacific. Saw suicide bombers who came so close to hitting the ship he could see the pilots faces just before they hit the water.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Re: The Good News Cafe Forum

Welcome JA. I still laugh when I think of your experience with swapping cars.



My husband was Air Force and I wonder if the BX is better help now than the stores today.

Also, not just for JA but when your eyes get on man they will always fail you, when you eyes are on God He can not fail. Might not understand what He is doing, but He can not and does not fail.

Heard a wonderful message once called The King Can do no Wrong.
