Military Background - Poll - Page 2

<S8>Inchon · 03-07-2007, 01:34 AM

Glad to see the responses so far. I agree that I should have put an option in for "No Military Experience." (If a mod can do that for me that would be great). Also it's great to see the various countries that play this game. In my opinion, I don't care what flag you are representing... if you stand with me against harm's way... I'll buy you a beer anyway.

And ironcomatose, you'll notice that the Marines are the only branch where everybody is a Marine. From the Commandant to a private... they all have the title of Marine.

People want to pull soldiers back even if someone is wounded by accidentaly.

But I quess this poll is for US citizens only?

So <S8>Inchon, did you participate on that second fallujah battle? That one when US "liberated" that city?

OIF= Operation Iraqi Freedom

E-5= Enlisted 5, Sergeant.

Also, Why'd you put liberated in quotes (asking though I already feel I know the answer)?
