Stebie got the wrong end of his "horse" again. Tsk, tsk. :-)

Poor Stebie, even more brain-dead than Jim Hampton surmised.

All the fuss and furor over MARS was already done when Stebie's
famous statement ["Sorry, Hans, MARS IS amateur radio"]
was made. Stebie is trying to misdirect by pointing a finger
at "my error." Poor guy doesn't realize that when he points
his finger, four other fingers are pointing at HIM! :-)

Heh heh heh. Stebie CUTS AND PASTES from the government web
sites! [he didn't used to like that!] However, the "statement
of mission" is just worded in glorious self-illumination typical
to ALL unit or political organization statements. Stebie wants
to take all of those absolutely LITERALLY like a good little
soldier. Such shining lights will reflect off the medals he
bought for himself at www.grunt.com or similar. He likes to
soak in that light and pretend being the big hero.

MARS is doing an okay job for the military. Keeps civilians
occupied through their volunteerism and the military hopes
that will reflect good will towards the military. MARS *was*
good back in the Vietnam War era for phone patches to folks
back home. But...that was THIRTY YEARS AGO! [Vietnam War
ended for the USA in 1975] The U.S. Army even made that direct
statement on the Army's Center for Military History.

MARS is a part of SHARES (SHAred RESources), a loose organization
of 2500 U.S. government HF radio sites. It serves as a good
radio liason to other government agencies now. That has been
demonstrated in the SHARES/MARS exercises dubbed "Grecian
Firebolt" and has been written up in the Army Communicator, a
quarterly for Signal personnel (and some contractors). The M in
MARS is definitely MILITARY and the A stands for AFFILIATE and
not "amateur." Army MARS stations are manned by professional
warfighters. Volunteer civilian units can work with those
stations but only under Army control, including operations
outside the ham bands, not inside them.

Does the U.S. military need ham-assisted phone patches now?
Rarely. With the expansion of the DSN and the Internet, troops
in Afghanistan and Iraq can communicate with home directly
through many of the personal computers fielded in quantity in
both places...and found on larger warships...and certainly
found on nearly every military post today. In many cases
the military makes actual telephones available for direct
talking to family and friends back home...through the DSN,
through the Internet via VoIP. Such MARS activities are
good for troop morale.

MARS was never designed/implemented/devised to be a PART of
mainstream military communications. It isn't now. The U.S.
military long ago organized their communications through
planning and adapting and reformulating networks, systems,
equipment to handle all the Command-Control-Communications
(the first three Cs of "C4I") they need. That works. It has
always worked. Been there, done that...even controlled the
transmitter that FEC MARS used (on a third-priority term),
one out of three dozen used for the REAL communications.

All of the above I wrote today has been written by me in here
before. Apparently Stebie is way too selective in what he
looks for on Google searching. :-)

The troop's buglers blew morse signals on their bugles...?

Actually, there was a "horsie-talkie" radio set, the SCR-511.
Went into production in late 1942. TM 11-245. (I have a copy)
Unfortunately, the Army had disbanded horse cavalry before
production started! :-)

Nice design idea. Operator wore a "chest unit," a flat pack
containing dry battery and a combo microphone-speaker with
old-style telephone curved horn. Right hand held the handle
at the base of the whip with a push-to-talk switch on handle,
radio box below that, and at the bottom a pole that would fit
the guidon socket on the right stirrup of a military saddle.
Left hand was free to hold reins. It went obsolete as soon as
it was delivered...

Of course, there were people who didn't serve at all in here telling us

Tsk. Snarly Stebie doesn't believe in honoring past members
of his unit. Thinks mentioning such is "self-glorification."
Of course, Stebie's sense of "honor" is "different" than other
folks. He probably goes to VA cemetaries every Memorial Day
and spits on those planting the American flags at gravesites.

"Today" one can read (via the ARRL) what hams did for MARS of
thirty years ago AS IF it were "today." :-)

The Vietnam War ENDED (for the USA) THIRTY YEARS AGO.

TODAY the military has the DSN to connect into the Internet, world
wide. Where ever a base is even semi-permanently located, they
have DSN nodes to it. When not in use by military traffic it is
free for personal use.

At least two national corporations offer "phone cards" low cost
for Gifts to Servicemen. Pre-paid, those can be used by service
personnel (here or overseas) on any telephone service, private
or military.


Of course you ALSO cite what happened at "ADA" in the 50's as if it

Jimmie posts about ham radio in World War TWO? I thought they

ASSISTANT NCOIC of a small MARS station. He never worked in
the Big Time of HF military comms.

Now he is HATING the military and MARS by not understanding what

Hello, Len

LOL, no I didn't save Saipan. I simply made initial contact with Hans who
*was* on Saipan loading a chain link fence, I believe, as the Coast Guard
tower had been blown over. At that point, I was due on watch and 3 other
guys took over at KG6AAY. They were the ones secured from all other duty.
I went to my regular assigned job in crypto.

It was the other guys who maintained communications with Rota and a number
of them got citations from Captain Delaney (our commanding officer).

The only reason that the Navy radiomen didn't make contact is that they
didn't realize that Han's signal was so strong that it was overriding the
local oscillator, thus rendering the SSB signal unreadable. Had they pulled
the antenna and stuck a coat hanger in the antenna jack in the radio, they'd
have had good reception.

LOL, no I didn't save Saipan. I simply made initial contact with Hans who
*was* on Saipan loading a chain link fence, I believe, as the Coast Guard
tower had been blown over. At that point, I was due on watch and 3 other
guys took over at KG6AAY. They were the ones secured from all other duty.
I went to my regular assigned job in crypto.

It was the other guys who maintained communications with Rota and a number
of them got citations from Captain Delaney (our commanding officer).

The only reason that the Navy radiomen didn't make contact is that they
didn't realize that Han's signal was so strong that it was overriding the
local oscillator, thus rendering the SSB signal unreadable. Had they
pulled
the antenna and stuck a coat hanger in the antenna jack in the radio,
they'd
have had good reception.

True. He saved Saipan once and told that story many times. :-)

I can't accept his claims to have been in MARS in any capacity. The
ignorance he has displayed wrt MARS is too vast.

Uh huh...riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiight.

Coming from a documented chronic liar and a pathetic old man who
has NO practical experience in Amateur Radio OR MARS, this is
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeal impressive (not)....

Losers both.
