Methinks I have had more effect than you care to admit.


Methinks you are full of sewage about your USMC career.

Thank you for that passive-agressive response; it did much to confirm
my suspicions.

I am sure it did. But then I am beginning to see a pattern too...

After parsing your posts I got suspicious because you revealed some
details but nothing verifiable -- almost like you were very careful
not to declare anything that could be proven to be a lie. So I emailed
several of my old Marine buds (a couple are still active duty). None
of them remember any avionics tech named Robeson, although two of them
remember a Navy -corpsman- named Robeson that got into trouble for
giving unnecessary prostate exams. You wouldn't be him, would you?

Well, "Frank", you have the same OFFICIAL resources at your
disposal as I do,

Even more than you might expect.

so I recommend you use them instead, rather than
making foolish statements that land you squarely in the "running my
mouth off without adequate substantiation of my position" behind them!

I call it like I see it.

Then your vision is in need os assessment by a good opthamologist
of your choice.

Several of my "buds" (with whom I still stay in contact with) from
the MCAS El Toro Aero Club were tracks and armor guys from Pendleton.


....."armor guys"?

Uh huh...Neat thing, military aeroclubs. The person sitting next
to you might be fresh off the yellow foot prints or wear stars on thier
collar.

What are the odds if I say "Who's Frank Gilliland and what did he do
for the Marines?" that they'll shrug their shoulders and say "Frank
who...?!?!"


You never know. Quite a few friends from boot camp ended up at
Pendleton (including one of the Marines currently on active-duty that
I contacted), and I was with 2nd AAV for almost a year. I also used to
hang out with some of the tankers at Stumps. Don't forget that there
weren't too many Marines in garrison after Viet-Nam, and techs were an
even smaller group. If you know a radio tech from tanks or amtraks at
the same time I was in then there's a real possibility he knows me or
I know him (or her, although most WM techs were sent to 4th or 5th
echelon stations). Heck, I even know a couple that got stationed in
Hawaii, the lucky *******s! But it might help to mention that I went
to GRRC at Stumps with the late Cpl. Moses Arnold -- the "class
clown", and truly one of the nicest guys you could ever meet (yeah,
people say that casually about a lot of people but Moses earned it).
To make things even easier for you, would it help if I provided a list
of recruits from my platoon at MCRD? Or the Marines from the BE and
GRRC classes at MCCES? Or from the Comm Platoons at 3/8 or 2nd AAV?
It's not a problem since I remember almost all their names. Most
Marines do, which is why I don't think you will have much of a problem
finding at least one or two that remember me. So feel free to check
with your fellow Marines (assuming, of course, you are telling the
truth).

My I draw your obviously tainted opinon to SSGT selection board of
1983, Precendent number 60A. You may also refer to the Gunnery
Sergeant selection board of 1987. To be truthful, I forgot my
precedent number on that one but it was high due to the overlap with
the previous years promotions.

And if you happen to doubt -my- service in the USMC...(SNIP)

No...but I doubt your understanding of the motto "Semper Fidelis".

I also question your motives in this forum. So far, nothing
relevent, other than catching the back of guys who are archived chronic
liars.

BTW, one of them wants to follow up with this because apparently it's
a crime to impersonante a military officer -including- non-coms,
active -or- retired. So what should I tell him, "Gunny"?

Whelp, all I can say is use some of those same OFFICIAL sources to
keep from looking like a fool, Frank.

But I'd also say "hurry" because your credibility is slipping.

I'm not worried about my credibility. On the contrary, -you- have yet
to give a direct answer to any specific question regarding your cruise
in the USMC.

And I told you if you'd care to e-mail me directly I'd be glad to
give it to you off-group. I've explained my reasons for doing so.
