Just to be fair to him, I left the link to this thread on the facebook group board where he frequents. Dont want to turn you gentlemens forum into a feild for a pissing match but I dont like talking behind a man's back and beleive he has the right to come on here and defend himself against my criticism, even though hes the one who threw the first stone.

If you have issue with this individual, please do not use this forum as a tool to discredit him. Be a man, confront him yourself, and respect the work that the moderators and QP's do to keep PS.Com respectable. And finally, fill out your profile so we have an idea of who you are.

So, you start a contentious thread, stir the pot, and then invite him and his buddies over to defend themselves.

If that isn't trolling, I don't know what it is.

You need to check yourself, young man. This isn't a typical board.

"coward" is a tough word or concept.Some are a lot less cut for actual combat than others.
Some of the "lesser cut" have done pretty good when required.

My favorite word is "freeloader."
It applies to anyone who never bothered to put on a military uniform.
"Yellow bellied cocksucker" doesn't fly in polite conversation.

You are an idiot if you lend any credence to what a newly minted SWO Ensign says, especially a "ring knocker" at that. The Naval Academy produces "leaders" who are extremely well educated but lack any understanding what leadership really is. There is a reason why Academy grads are ridiculed in the fleet.

You know it's funny, the AF Academy produces the same types of Lieutenants, most are not only not good leaders, they're socially retarded for the first couple of years of duty.
