[QUOTE="Recon$$, post: 3060255, member: 34122"] I'm 2 generations later and not on a trigger anymore. Len, I have to agree with you. Vietnam fascinates me because the missions would never have flown in my day. Different Era, different War (kinda). In my time, not to long ago in consideration, I'd say the attitudes were much different. Amongst service members it was either respect, some form of admiration, or just envy. By envy I mean you'd you'd have some random command staff just come jump up your *** cause they could hide behind their rockers or bars until your own entered the fight, usually over gear, appearance, some bs crap their boys couldnt do. I have to say, even working in the leo world now, I truly cherish my brief time i occasionally have with my usmc brothers. Were all lunatics faking it till we make it. I remember when I got hired at my current gig, an old ranger came up to me who had read my resume. He told me two things. It's a good job, but you'll never work with the people you used to and its not that. He wasn't wrong. There's definitely some members on here that could weigh in, hope they do. [/QUOTE]
