Don't give a damn if the Marines were pissing on corpses who when they were breathing would do the same on them if they had a better day. Now what I have a problem with is putting it on the web so the people who ordered those Marines to be put in that situation but never had the guts to do it themselves to sit in judgement of them. So the Marine who filmed it and stuck it on You tube, your an asshole with with a questionable thought process. The American public has no idea what it takes to survive over here and they dont need to know.
Spoken like a goddamn FOB rat.
What these morons did was not only a war crime, but handed over the most golden piece of anti-American propaganda since Abu G. I'm sitting about 200 yards from the front line, and get to deal with it hourly. These four morons not only made all our lives harder, but have put my guys at greater risk. These assholes should be made to come back and clean up their own mess...

It's called a cockpit for a reason, not the box office.
If God had intended for women to fly the sky would be pink, not blue.

Just goes to show that supporting the military in this country only goes so far as words for most people, right up until it impacts their personal plans.
If I'm the Captain of that flight, I'm getting on the P.A. and telling the other 100 assholes that I'm not moving the plane until everyone on that family has a seat.

That's a sad state of affairs when you're pilots suck to much to even succesfully defect.

So no "special alone time" when Midnight Hot comes on, eh?
You have to stay up after MH, for the calender shoots they air before "Breakfast."
Somewhere I have my 1000 Hour FTV patch.

Saudi tactical. Don't even get me started on these idiots.
Ever tried to get the Saudi F-15's to a merge? Talk about a bunch of pussies. Besides, Allah is on their side and all their weapons have a Pk of 1.0.

Can't remember if I've posted this before. For my fellow single seaters:

Awww, Nuts!
That's funny as hell.

I know what you mean. The last time I was in the Middle East, there was a whole shit load of folks in uniform...seemed like everyone was, Army, AF...even foreign services. Walking right down the street, driving vehicles, flying planes, all in full view of the public! I was going to order all of them to change, but some of them out ranked me…
Bahrain International Airport is not the right place for a pair of Army E-4's to be in their BDU's.

I flew American from DFW to MCI last Sunday. As I passed by the cockpit, I asked "Is Tim up there?". I heard a resounding "NO".
It was not an American Eagle flight but I knew the pilots would know who I was referring too.
I am very happy to say that I was moved to 1st class for the flight, I was in uniform (US Army). American Airlines does this quite often and I really appreciate it. Most other airlines do not.
I seem to always end up in a middle seat at the back of the aircraft when flying Southwest Airlines in uniform. I request any airline except Southwest Airlines when flying on TDY orders.
What is it with you Army guys all traveling in uniform? Force protection anyone? Hell I was at the airport in Bahrain trying to catch a flight out of there and saw two Army E-x's in BDU's. I was going to order them to go change, but couldn't catch up with them in time. Wearing an American military uniform in full view of the public in the middle east? Also saw an Army Major wearing his at the air port in Thailand catching a flight to Japan. WTF guys?

I used to use the gatoraid bottles due to the larger mouth, but I might try to see how many ripits I can fill in one standing.

Sad news.

Up until a few years ago, they had gone 25 years without an incident. Now a slew of T-39 losses.
Marines Urinating on Dead Taliban

Allow me to rephrase. My desk is 200 meters away, which is where I sit at the moment. My coin team and the other 200+ individuals that work for me just became bigger targets, and their jobs just got that much harder and more dangerous.
If you want to condone war crimes, maybe you should reevaluate the oath you took. I've flown my share of OEF CAS missions but down here in the dirt shit like this becomes a much bigger deal. This isn't like the 15E's that bombed a tanker in Konduz on accident... what these guys did was blatant. Putting a GBU-38 into the wrong building, strafing on a bad target ID, those are all mistakes. This is totally different.
I don't care whether you think COIN is stupid/worthless or not, the bottom line is you have comrades that are executing it because they were told to, and giving it their very best. These Marines just undid the work of thousands, and put others in more peril than they already are.
Also, if you don't think anyone is already using this as propaganda then maybe you could come down and explain it to the ANA that want nothing more than to talk about it. "How could they do this?" "Why would they do this?" "What is being done?" There are several hundred of them here, and if one decides that the behavior of these Marines is enough to change his mind about what side he's on, it could be a very bad day for US service memebers. It's happened before.
