Re: 90th Division remarks
I can't imagine what I have done to make you sick, Chuck, other than making longer posts than you. But what makes you ill is your business.
I can clearly see that your vast "training" experiences (even thought your Hawaii story seems strangely incoherant) outweights my 10 years in the Infantry with actual combat deployment. I shall leave you content in your wannabe kingdom, confident in your beliefs that war is book rehearsed tactics and the long winded application of percentages and probability. I hope one day you may experience more than just 'laser tag' and you may find like I did that while the MILES combat simulation system is an excellent training tool, it does not teach the full lessons of real combat.
FYI, when visiting units train at US bases, the 'guest' always win. The British, French, German, South Korean, Honduran units I had the honor of training with in my past were just as pleasant to the varied units I have served with. Come to think of it, you always hear "training stories" where people go somewhere and "kick butt", but how many times have you heard the reverse? Strange how so many units go places and always win without meeting the 'losers'.
But nevermind, I won't be concerned with your views anymore.
Ta-Ta and good luck to this forum.
