Oh, and not surpisingly it has been proven that only 1 or 2 % of soldiers shoot to kill in combat, they are too sickened to murder someone.
Hey I dont know a single soldier that I served with that screamed and ran away. I was scared just as anyone else but you know what I flew out side of the protective wire of my FOB every day for a whole damn year. I dont call that running. Oh and by the way, everytime I got shot at I shot back to kill. Yes I was scared but you know what it was me or them and I was going home.

And now that that was said I agree we need to get back on topic.

ALERT!!! ALERT!!!! THERE IS MASS BLINDNESS IN THISA THREAD!!!!

THIS IS WHAT Plan D SAID WHEN I POINTED OUT HOW SCARED SOLDIERS ARE. NOTE THAT I DID NOT CALL SOLDIERS DISGUSTING COWARDS. Plan D PRESUMED THAT.

By that simple statement you have disgraced every single man in history that has fought on a field of battle, that has seen his friends die, that has been injured in a conflict and that has ultimately paid the ultimate price, his life.

All of those men that ran up those beaches, jumped out of those planes, ran across those fields, flew those bombers, sailed in those ships during World War 2 to secure your freedom of speech, you have insulted. You f**k-ing moron!

Who the f**k do you think you are!? Sure they were scared, who wouldn't be!? Those men were ALL scared but bravery isn't being scared, it's BEING scared and getting off your ass and doing the job anyway! You arsehole!

Now, for everyone else with a bit of sense here's an amusing website.

Enjoy.

Oh yeah, and Smokey, you're an arsehole.
AND WHAT WAS GOING ON THROUGHOUT HIS DELIGHTFUL POST? HE WAS INSULTING ME!!!!! YES HE INSULTED ME FIRST!!!

I was just mainly adding my two sense. I try not to get out of hand here and I am not going to now. I was not implying anything Smokey just making a remark.

Damn CC I do need my stuff fixed I wish Horse would get back with me, I feel so hopeless.

Smokey, one more off-topic outburst like that and you will be shown the door. Knock it off, NOW.

Everyone simply needs to calm down. Smokey, you are entitled to your opinions but perhaps you need to consider that others have theirs as well. You will NEVER convince anyone if you are so quick to judge.

As for the rest just Calm down, eh! or I'll start dishing out the yellows!

All that happened was that I was misunderstood by Plan D, who judged me too quickly and then insulted me.
I've seen loads of misunderstandings on other forums, but this is the first one I have been involved in.
I can see how these misunderstandings/arguments develop so quickly when you only have text based communication, like on a forum.

Yes it has happened quite a bit. When you do not see the person and talk to them directly you can easily misunderstand them.
