I start training for Iraq

at the end of October. I'm heading to Ft. Hood, Tx on the 19th. How damn exciting&!R!%^#WRT!YBJ JHKGLKDADYJGD

I seriously cannot wait.


And yes, that is me in the picture. :H

 

The photo reminds me of a song:


"
Strike while the iron is hot
Steel is strongest so say we all
And if we all were not brothers of metal would we fall? - no -
They tried to test our spirit
They tasted steel before we were done
Grinding their bones into the dust of the past
All blown away like a shot from a gun

We cast our lot together four still stand as one
Here well remain forever till our kingdoms one

Brothers of metal
We are fighting with power and steel
Fighting for metal metal thats real
Brothers of metal will always be there
Standing together with hands in the air

Let us drink to the power drink to the sound
Thunder and metal are shaking the ground
Drink to your brothers who are never to fall
Were all brothers of metal here in the hall

Our hearts are filled with metal and masters we have none
And we will die for metal, metal heals, my son

Brothers of metal
We are fighting with power and steel
Fighting for metal metal thats real
Brothers of metal will always be there
Standing together with hands in the air

Let us drink to the power drink to the sound
Thunder and metal are shaking the ground
Drink to your brothers who are never to fall
Were all brothers of metal here in the hall

Brothers of metal
We are fighting with power and steel
Fighting for metal metal thats real
Brothers of metal will always be there
Standing together with hands in the air

Manowar. Nice. I once broke up an acoustic guitar session with that song. And the accompanying dance.

 

chuck, you know we're friends. so dont take offense when i ask this.

but why on earth are excited to go kill innocent people?

 

Manowar. I'm so gonna do a country-folk cover of that song when I get another guitar.



Mary.... I'm not going there to kill innocent people. I'm going to help rebuild and defend Iraq, which requires me to kill terrorists. Its all in good fun.

 

threads like this make me hate my species.

 

Hey there Chuck, when you shipping out? :jester:

Nice to see you're alive and enjoying life, at least... I hope things are going well for ya.

 

Sure sucks to be you


Hey George If I'm lucky I'll be heading to the desert in December, a Brigade is shipping out then, hopefully I'll be in it..... but the rest of Ft. Hood will be gone by March or April, so I'll be over there by springtime :H woohoo

 

That's rather hardcore and all, if you ask me (though you did not) but I just hope you don't get too stressed out when you go over there or something. Guess that's an expecting the unexpected sort of deal, but just wishing the best for you.

I found out I am not bipolar (I don't really like to believe some of the BS I hear) or anything, this Summer. I have adult/hf autism, instead... or AS.

\don't smoke crack/

 

By the way, we've pretty much abandoned this forum. Feel free to visit my new and improved cardboard box. It's good times.

 

Haha I could so see you being autistic. No offense or anything, obviously.


If I do ever begin to get really stressed out I'll just think of the time you and I got naked and rolled around in the snow together. Yes I believe that will do the trick.

 

Good times and what have you not.

 

Iraq does NOT want to be rebuilt or defended, and those "terrorists" over there are completely in the right. They are fighting back against an illegal occupation of their country by an evil force that is over there doing things like skinning innocent people alive and raping children.

Terrorist or not, killing people is not "all in good fun." The army is taking any psychotic killer they can get their hands on, now.

 

You sound like a WW1 Propaganda Writer. "The Germans eat Beligan babies!!!"

 

Best of luck to you, not in killing as much as comming back alive, happy and still be able to grab the person you were. Action takes something from everyone, I assure you that you will not come back the same if you see much. I dont say this in a negative manner but rather just a passing thought. Its hard to be the same person when you experience anything so strong in life.

 

tell me bout it

 

I was a medic.

As your friend, I hope you break your leg in BCT and you get discharged.

Basics easy though.

 

I hope that you are not as rash when deciding to pull the trigger as you were when you posted that it was all in good fun.

 

I like how all the 15 year olds come her to hate on you, Chuck.

Good luck, brothaman. I like that tank....

 

You're so mature. BTW, I like Action Man figures. Maybe we can play together sometimes.
