I seem to remember some folks crying about and those same people are no where to be seen now.
Well that is great for you. Now address what I said. But I have the suspicion that you'll just repeat yourself over and over again without actually saying anything.
I certainly wonder what makes you any kind of authority on Navy's telling of his military experience, since you've never spent a day in uniform.
Okay stop right there. Because you
obviously didn't read anything that has been said before. Navy himself has stated his duties on a ship and tried to inflate them. He was called on them by people who have spent more then a day in uniform and he didn't reply. That you're still trying to argue **** that you weren't around to even see just shows that you're just talking so that we can all see that you have
something to say. Please stop? I will rip you apart for being the newb who stepped up to somebody who's been here for more than a couple of months.
I mean, it's obvious that whomever convinced you that there are inconsistencies in his story didn't know that SK idnetified something more than just a pencil pusher. That, in itself, is a huge inconsistency. Obviously an SK rate can cover many different jobs, unlike an 11M40MG-H, in the Army, which is very specific in MOS and function.
And here we go again with apdst talking like something is obvious and he has any prior knowledge of the facts. No. Obviously, something is not obvious when a person refuses to clarify their own statements as Navy himself has whenever
his telling of
his story is asked to be clarified. Learn what words like inconsistency and obvious mean before you go using them. Remember sparky? That's what we're talking about?
So, does that make his service irrelevant to other branches of arms and service and MOS's? Again, what unit did you serve in?
You have zero clue how any given branch operates, because you have zero time in service, so who are you to make that call?
Well, in case you haven't noticed, we're not talking about art. We're talking about the armed services. If we were talking about art, I definitely wouldn't be prticipating in the thread, because I have as much knowledge about art as you do about the military. There's a lesson there for you. Think you can figure it out?
Three paragraphs and you've yet to prove where anything I've said on Navy is wrong or even begin to address what is actually being said. What you've stated several times is 'I see no inconsistency' and 'you don't know what you're talking about'. That has been proven to be false. My statements do not stem from Navy's actual service but the particularities of them and how a lot of them have been called out as being gross exaggerations of facts.
Your second paragraph is a fallacy. Not serving in the military does not mean you have knowledge of how a branch operates. That is like saying that because you do not make paint yourself, you wouldn't know how to use it. It simply does not follow.
Your 3rd paragraph is a complete f'n lie as you have already introduced yourself into threads talking about socialism and then were found not to have a single f'n clue on what socialism actually was. Proving that you do in fact regularly talk about **** you're clueless about. Why don't you follow your own advice?
What you want him to do? Scan and post his DD214 for us all to see? Personally, I don't see any inconsistencies in his story. He said he was based in Cam Ranh Bay. I'm sure you're unaware that Navy PBR units and boat teams were based in Cam Ranh Bay. A unit's base and it's area of operations are two different things. Just a little education for you.
Are you
still typing just to type? You must be. Cause I keep seeing your repeat yourself over and over again without actually making a point. What did I say about Navy being stationed in Cam Ranh Bay? Anywhere? Please show me? I had to put the only sentence in that entire diatribe of a paragraph in bolded letters because it shows your inability to understand that Navy's story in the military is not something which can be seen off a single post. Navy has 20K posts, to understand
what is being talked about you'd have to actually - oh I don't know - have been here to understand. But since you haven't. What use is your opinion?
Now
personally, if I cared about what you thought, or knew? I'd drill a hole in the left side of my brain just so you and I could be on the same intellectual level. But since I have no intention of handicapping myself to the point where I am no longer able to comprehend what I am discussing, no thank you. Carrying on.
I can't say enough, that this comment is coming from a man that knows jack **** about the services. If you did, you would already know that a ship's captain doesn't run the ship. Just like it's not the pilot's aircraft; it belongs to the crew chief that signed for it and is responsible for it's maintanance and combat readiness.
Are you out of your alcoholic mind? Seriously -
WHERE did I say this? Listen - if you're not even going to read what is actually being said or comprehend the difference between intentional hyperbole and what you think is being said - you should REALLY stop typing. What I
did state was that Navy has on many occasions talked like he was running a ship.
He's been called on it by people who
just what people like him did in the military and Navy has ALWAYS to this day run away from the conversation. Why? Personally I don't know. But I've grown to the suspicion that he is so full of **** that if he started talking about what he actually did, he'd no longer be able to paint himself as somebody was really in the heat of it all as he usually does.
So, at the end of the day, the only fallacy that you've seen is that he claimed that personel not serving in combat units didn't receive IDP. Am I right? Not a huge mistake for a serviceman who probably signed up for mud-n-blood duty because some silver tongue devil told him that he would receive IDP vs. hooking up with a cush gig that wasn't elligible for IDP. Now, you can better understand how I came to be in an MOS where I slid down a cheese grater, usingmy balls for breaks rather than going into some chilled out job series where I didn't have to dig the mud out of my ears every morning. Little did I know that IDP wasn't reinstated intil 1991, during Desert Storm.
Oh, BTW, if you haven't PCS'd(Permanent Change of Station)to, or you're not already on a deployment status with your PPS(Permanent Party Station) in a TO(theater of operation) where IDP is authorized, you're not elligible for IDP. Personel who are TDY(Temporary Duty Yonder) in an operational combat theater aren't elligible. So, spending a sinlge day in a TO doesn't qualify a service member for IDP. Just like jumping out of an aircraft doesn't qualify one for jump pay, or PDP(parachute Duty Pay). One has to be on jump status, in an operational parachute unit, to qualify for jump pay. Yeah...know the 101st Airborne? They don't get PDP. Sorry to burst your ignorant little bubble there.
No. If you actually knew how to follow a thread properly and had just an ounce of reading comprehension you would have understood that what has been called into question is some of Navy's claim not only regarding what he
actually did in the service but some of the details in it.
That is not a fallacy. Please! Please! Please! LOOK UP the definition of words before you try to use them. That is called an observation regarding the events that have unfolded. Navy stated you could only get A if you did B. This was shown to be false. Then he stated people didn't know about it cause it was at point 1. That was also shown to be false. Considering you've yet to even read a single post on the matter, and I know you haven't because you've completely misunderstood the crux of the matter, why is it that you are still talking? Please explain it to us? I'd love to find out. Because the injection of your person into a topic which you seem to be completely clueless about, as usual, is kind of annoying.
