It comes with a very high price....The question you
need to ask...you spoiled little brat..is what do you
know about Marines.
The more you talk about him...I am starting to like him already!

When do you serve in the Marines? Where did you go through basic training?

I wouldn't doubt you would like him, you both could sit and talk for hours about your bible and how it changed your life. Yeah yeah. I saw the light! If it takes the fear of God or Hell to make a man change his ways, he was no good to start with. And hipocracy isn't REALLY change.

4-pack, I don't know your dad, but I think what God has done for him, is forgiven him for all his screwups as a father, something he hasn't forgiven himself for.
My dad was the least loving dad there was, but he was there, a part of our lives, and he lead by example, so, I really don't know what you went through, and I'm not pretending to, but I do know what it is like to screw up royally and to need forgiveness.
You sure seem like a great mom, and have a handsome hubby who is a great dad, your kids are very blessed!

1970- 1972...
Here is a thing I wrote not to long about my service.... on the ....where have all the Christians gone? thread.
This guy was a Huey pilot in VN....I ask him how long do we have before they bleed to death
if we can't get them to the hospital in time ?. He said I don't know but will have a lot more time
if you start putting some bandages on them!
He flew alot of Medevac missions with me for a year.... He was the best pilot I had the
privilege to serve with. He gave me my nick name Fillipe ...because I was assigned with the Filipinos.
Great man, great soldier.

COL Hank Tuell had an outstanding career as an aviator, commander and hospital administrator. His initial assignment after flight school was with the 15th Medical Battalion in Vietnam. He flew more than 1,000 combat hours, evacuating over 2,100 patients, demonstrating tenacity and bravery under fire. His combat awards include the Silver Star, six awards of the Distinguished Flying Cross, Air Medal, Bronze Star, Soldiers Medal and Purple Heart. He served two tours on the Surgeon General’s Staff, as an assignment officer, and later chief of the Career Activities Office. His second great passion after flying was mentoring the young aviators and Soldiers of the Corps. He commanded the 63rd Medical Detachment in Germany, 571st Medical Detachment at Fort Carson, and the 56th Medical Battalion at Fort Ord. Hank was selected as the first Chief of Staff of the newly formed US Army Medical Command. His final assignment was as the Garrison Commander, Fort Detrick, MD. One of the most decorated aviators of the Vietnam era, Hank’s quiet and humble dedication to the Army Medical Department and its Soldiers is an example for all. Hank Tuell was inducted into the DUSTOFF Hall of Fame on 12 November 2011. |
Jim ....when did you serve?
by MAINLYMAX on 21 May 2011 - 01:05
every thing inquiring minds want know.
I flew in and out of the Phillipines, with Fillpinos...I am French/American. The main hospitals for
wounded were in the Phillipines.
Hank was about that age when we served together.
4pks...When old marines get together, they almost never talk about the bible.

Why do people think that the military is above other high risk jobs such ie LE and Fire? What makes giving your life somehow more important in fatigues then wearing a shirt with a badge on it or a fire jacket? Someone once told me that being in the military is just a job. Once I thought about it, I realized that he was right. We place military on pedestals and when something like this happens, we just cant believe that they would be involved in this. How many gang banger have been let into the military? Now that a shame.
As it was previously stated, if SWAT is at your door, then most likely you screwed up. I live in a high crime drug area. I've NEVER seen SWAT and there are raids all the time. Maybe SWAT was called because of this guys gun experience.
I have some military friends that are so pampered because they are treated above and beyond their jobs. The story is sensationized because of his military career and I agree with Slamdunk, if he is found guilty then he is a disgrace to ALL those who live by the code of HONOR!
