The point being that you never served in a forward area, let alone
a combat area. Matter of fact, the only thing "forward" about you is
bad manners and a propensity to deceive.


The point is that a low-ranking Marine knew enough to call you out on
your military service lies.


Tsk. The stealers of valor cry foul when their stealing is stolen.


Adding to the basis of "ther" double-standard.


Notice that Dudly NEVER explains EXACTLY which "front" He was in.
His usual tactic is to immediately denigrate his accuser in an
attempt to avoid a direct answer.

I arrived in Japan in February 1953. Combat action in Korea was
in a minimal state due to on-going talks about a cease-fire/truce.
In July 1953 that Truce state was entered and has remained so for
52 years! On the other hand, the USSR had aircraft bases in
Manchuria, the biggest being a cluster in Kamchatka. Those were
within range of Honshu Island, Japan (Tokyo is in the middle).
It doesn't matter on aircraft type numbers that the USSR had, the
point was that there were USSR aircraft that could reach Tokyo
from land bases. Jimmie Noserve picked out my one error in USSR
bomber types of 1953 and tried to imply that I was "in error" in
all my postings.

Compare that to Dudly. Dudly has NEVER specified the Where or
When of HIS "seven hostile actions." Probably because he was
never IN them. He could have been in the military at that time
but then he would be in the non-heroic position of being in a
rear area.

Dudly has NO PROOF whatsoever of his "forward area" action. NONE.
Aircraft ground maintenance personnel are NOT in any "forward area."


Actually, it just might be possible. I know of some rear area
personnel who were permitted to go on helo excursions so that they
would qualify for hazardous duty pay. Yet the douche bags had no
weapon, no TA50, and no sense. It was just a scam, and they should
have been reprimanded.

I beleive that Steve is up to such stunts.


I have no opinion on that.

If one is NOT in a "forward area," one is in the "rear area." Such
as an Okinawa MARS station where Dudly claimed to be "Assistant
NCOIC." [wow...lots of responsibility there...in a NON-commo role
if he was really there...MARS was never a part of the Defense
Communications System]


How could it have been??? "MARS IS Amateur Radio!"


The Defense Communications System (and whatever names it was changed
to) was NEVER any amateur effort. It has always been run by
professionals. MARS served as a sort-of auxilliary that MIGHT be
an asset "if all else failed" but all else did NOT fail. MARS was
valuable for troop morale in Vietnam in the first half of the 1970s.
The U.S. Army acknowledged that and it is written up on the website
of the Army Center for Military History. But, that was over 30
years ago and before Dudly's claimed time in service.

Dudly has never referred to any common small-unit land force radio
by nomenclature or familiar name. Neither has he done so for any
common avionics radio of the 1974-1992 period. That is unthinkable
for anyone who has really been IN the military involved in radio
communications of any kind. Ergo, Dudly NEVER DID what he claimed.


Ergo, Dud UXO lied.


An 18-year period of enlistment is quite long in an average human's
lifespan. To have NO record, no memento, not even a snapshot or a
name of a "buddy" to use as a reference in all that time is so
strange
that it is unthinkable. Ergo, what Dudly claimed was a LIE.

Dudly has presented NO PROOF of this claimed military service. He
has presented nothing but verbal generalities that can be gleaned
from publications or entertainment shows.


Such as a 1950's issue of "This is the Air Force?"


Not if Dudly was in the USMC or USN. :-)

Anyone truly proud to
have served will have some sort of documentation which can be
scanned and presented for proof. Dog tags can be scanned. Dudly
has offered NONE. Not even personal snapshots.


He got sand in his eye.


For 18 years, yes. It's a wonder he can see anything at all now...

Dudly says all who challenge him on his military claims should "call
the VA [Veteran's Administration]." The VA will not reveal details
to non-familiy members and must have assurance that a requestor is
legitimate. The VA cannot reveal details due to a federal law that
is almost three decades old. The same is true for NARA, the
National Archives and Records Administration, which has a large
records archive in St. Louis, MO. NARA has a website which
contains the form required to request details...the filled-in form
can be e-mailed for personal data, but must be sent surface mail
for full disclosure.


He hides behind his "Ask the VA" claims. Wonder where he hid during
the "seven hostile actions?"


I'm tempted to reply "in a bud's rear-area" but that would be in
bad taste so I won't reply that...

The only logical conclusion is that Dudly's claims to military
service are a FRAUD, a fabrication, a LIE. In his case, a "rear
area" is what he has been giving us.


He fully understands that disclosure of his military records will
expose him as the fraud that he is. So he hides behind his claims that
the "VA" will somehow release his data, knowing full well that they
won't.


There we have it. A big NOTHING from Dudly, no proof, no documents,
not even snapshots, and all he can do is generate vague generalities
and implications of where and what he has done. His "descriptions"
don't have a ring of personal experience to them. He is a con man,
a fraud, an imposter, and like all of those, tries to smokescreen
direct answers to challenges with personal insults against those
same
challengers. He gives the appearance of answering yet never
answered
anything at all. Typical con man syndrome.

Not yours.


If you wish to discuss anal sex, find ANOTHER newsgroup for that.


You took my comment and turned it around.



NOTHING was "turned around." The quotes are exact, in a linear form
from your posting.


I wrote nothing of serving anybody's rear. You did.


Then, when I respond to your
silly question, you think I'm discussing anal sex?



Since you are anal-retentive on "rear area" issues, what I wrote
is the most plausible explanation for your non-turned-around
statement.


It doesn't sound plausible at all.



What in the world is the matter with you?



Nothing. I'm trying to (vainly it seems) to return to amateur
radio policy issues.


That isn't evident from your recent posts.

Up before the FCC at this very moment is 05-143, an NPRM on the
government's proposal to remove test element 1 from the license
examination requirements. Comments continue to come in on that
via Docket WT 05=235. The results of that and whether or not a
Report and Order will be issued removing the code test will most
definitely affect United States amateur radio in the near future.


But you've chosen to discuss whether I can put up antennas.

You do not choose to discuss CURRENT amateur radio policy issues
but rather dwell on old, old arguments in here and are now anal-
retentive on "rear area" statements.


Your posts on Steve's service in the Marine Corps are about amateur
radio policy matters?

What is the matter with YOU?


One of my knees is bothering me and I haven't been getting enough sleep.
I'm wondering how best to tackle the mounting of a 6m yagi above my
homebrew 12/17m yagi.

No, like Frank "Not-a-model-Marine" Gilliland.

Jim acts as if status as a "amateur" is something which gives him

never amateurs.


Does he? I've seen no evidence of it. The only radio professional
here, who isn't a radio amateur, is Len Anderson. Len is an insulting
churl.



Jim is a thin-skinned Evangelical CWer.


Dave acts as if status as a DXer is something which gives him
entitlement to be condescending to those who enjoyed DX while not
holding the highest class of amateur licesne.


To those? Well, there's you and you don't seem to know very much about
DXing. You seem to equate it with ragchewing across continents.



Hmmmm? I know not to work French hams out of band on 6 meters.


Have you worked any French stations on 6m?

Hmmmm? I know where to get permission to operate from a piece of real
estate that has no government.


That hasn't been demonstrated.

It took a guy who you claim "doesn't seem to know very much about
DXing" to point that info out to you.


It did? That hasn't been demonstrated either.

But you just can't accept it,
coming from a younger, brighter, better looking, and lower ranking
amateur. Too bad for you.


I thought you were the only person involved. Now it sounds like there
were four in your group.


Every time I see such nonsense, it seems to be from a guy who is
insecure about his own accomplishments.


Then again, you've been wearing a chip on your shoulders for years.



No chip. No dip. No parrot.


I've got the facts; you make smug remarks.


I'm always happy to provide a smug remark or two to a pipsquawk who

Tsk, tsk, tsk...Dudly kept talking about his "seven hostile actions"

I've never bragged about being IN any hostile actions. If fact,
Jimmie Noserve took me to task about being a "rear-area" type.
I guess all those books he read (to become an expert on warfare)
didn't tell him that NOBODY got to "choose" where they were
assigned. Nonetheless, I got to work real HF radio communications
for three years in a 24/7 radio station...even living IN a two
square mile antenna field for a while. [many more antennas
there than overweight "scampering" Davie can possibly put up]

Just as they have not permitted you to comment about "amateur" radio
because you hold no license, NoServers may not comment about the
military.


Hold on, Sparky. Len has commented here at great length and on many,
many occasions.



And what has Jim's response been to Len's comments?


It has been quite varied and quite mild considering Len's typical
insulting demeanor. What Jim hasn't done is to prevent or attempt to
prevent Len from making those comments.

Well, I'll tell ya, Dave -- I have absolutely no regrets about

that you can't seem to comprehend: I'm telling the truth. And that's

It's even worse to impersonate a vet. Wouldn't you agree?

No, that's not a fact. K4YZ has, through his own words, proved beyond
any reasonable doubt that he did -NOT- serve, at least not in the
capacity he claims. I've run into many of these impersonators over the
years, most of whom claim to be Viet-Nam vets that did "secret ops" or
worked independently "behind enemy lines", and often quoting lines
from the movies "Apocolypse, Now", "Platoon" and "Full Metal Jacket"
(and even that early Jack Webb movie). But ask them for proof and they
clam up and get all defensive, just like K4YZ, and now K8MN.

Honor is earned, not stolen. By defending a valor-thief you are
subverting your own intentions and disrespecting those who -did-
serve, those who are serving right now, and those who have died and
will die in the future. If you want to do the right thing then don't
let yourself be fooled by these fakes -- any true vet will have no
problem with showing proof of service when asked.

And just where you step in is indeed a question. You, as easily as the
others, can be just as much a "fake".
I don't know you, so for all I know you are a Troll. I know Dan, W4NTI, and
I know of his service.
Dan has earned, in your childish words, his "honor". So also have several
other Veterans who comment in this or other groups.
I, unlike you, don't question the service of fellow Veterans. I accept them
as they are.
It has been, and will continue to be my practice to give a hand salute to
all Vets.
