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. But it is true, isn't it, that you were so far to the rear that you were in a different country from where the Korean conflict was taking place? Of course. :-) If Jimmie say it true, it must be true! :-) Japan was not DIRECTLY involved in the Korean WAR, true. The Occupation was over when I was assigned there. Was I supposed to break rules, go against the UCMJ, to go to the "front?" :-) By the way, WHERE was this "front?" You guys keep talking about the "front lines" like it was in World War ONE. Wasn't like that. Ask Jimmie Noserve. He was THERE...in spirit...through his books...he read all about it. 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] Well, grizzled old Sarge, I just put up a brand new, enormous triband yagi all by my lonesome. Wow! All by your LONESOME? Gee, Davie, you need to get out more. It would keep you from being so lonesome... You have some PROOF of this accomplishment, yes? I'll wager I've put up more antennas in the past five years than you have in your lifetime. I'm absolutely positive you have, dozens and dozens, hundreds and hundreds of them, more than in several mens' lifetimes. Whatever it is, YOU did MORE. You say so and that be that. Wanna play some more "mine's bigger than yours"? I don't "play" with antennas. On the big ones, I let the pros do their jobs. They know how to erect them. I know how to erect mine. :-) I got to work real military HF communications during a four-year Air Force hitch and plenty of government HF communications during a State Department career. I've used antennas like rhombics, 3-30 MHz inverted discones, double boom Collins LPA's at 90 feet and I've used magnetic loops, open wire-fed flattops with autotuners, fan dipoles and even crummy B&W "broadband" folded dipole "resistors". I've operated satellite terminals with 9 meter dish antennas and with little suitcase sat terminals. I've installed an maintained several generations of STU's and operated high speed leased lines. All by yourself? Wow! You have PROOF of that, yes? I'll bet you were Behind The Lines in 'Nam, sending valuable intel back to Hq, right? A vital asset to the military! Hip hip hooray! Sorry, Davie, I didn't do a lot of radio communications (all by myself) after my military service. I went into DESIGN of radio- electronics, making the equipment from scratch. My stint as a professional in radio communications exceeded yours by several magnitudes. Hundreds of magnitudes. Googles of them. Off the scale... Now, what're you using for antennas for your lil R-70 vintage inhaler? Why do you ask? Do you need HELP? Just ask. BTW, my Icom receiver, purchased long ago, is NOT used in the wine industry nor for private brewing. It has no olfactory sensing inputs. It still works well as a 50 KHz to 30 MHz RADIO RECEIVER... is within specification as of this March. Didya catch the part where he says he was ONLY a "####bird PFC"...?!??! Sheesh...even Lennie made E5... Did you catch the part where Jim didn't serve? Jimmie Miccolis never served. Mikey Coslo never served. Dee Flint never served. Brain Kellie WAS served (by "drudges") at the captain's table! You act as if status as a veteran is something which gives you entitlement to be condescending to those who were never in the military. Tsk. I must be subconsciously picking up YOUR attitude! Gotta watch myself. No, your snarlingness, I don't feel "entitled" to condescension. That's YOUR schtick. I DO feel absolutely ENTITLED to cuss out any sumbish who wants to meanmouth whatever service I did for my country especially so if they didn't serve. I don't take no snit from pansies who were NEVER IN who want to "tell me like it is" IN the military. YOU live with that, because that's how it goes down. Every time I see such nonsense, it seems to be from a guy who served in the rear someplace. Tsk. Whose rear have you served lately? |

Whose rear have you served lately? 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. 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. What in the world is the matter with you? Nothing. I'm trying to (vainly it seems) to return to amateur radio policy issues. 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. 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. What is the matter with YOU? |

![]() 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. Dave K8MN .................... May I be so bold as to have the audacity to agree with K8MN? While my comments may not rest well with some of you "chairborne" commandos, it is cheap and tawdry to call into question or submit falsehoods about the service of Veterans. Whether or not you approve of Veterans such as W4NTI or K4YZ, the fact remains that they SERVED! While you Chairborne Hams were nit-picking over license qualifications these two guys were serving their, and YOUR, country. I defer to K8MN. He is correct and "on the money". Would that the rest of you do the same. |

Was I supposed to break rules, go against the UCMJ, to go to the "front?" 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. Obviously not. He didn't get any of it right. And his "agenda" was laid bare in the process. Try again, Your Couch Potatoness. Steve, K4YZ |
