What sucks is that the guy starts an interesting thread, had some great responses (like the Toye quote and the link to the Army Times article), and it gets ruined before its off page one.

Maybe yankeeundercover is being sincere about his confusion, but the downvoting and petty attacks are typical of any DV thread. It's fricking ridiculous.

Sad but true. I was looking forward to a good thread discussing the Battle of the Bulge until the usual cast of trolls that are allowed to run rampant on the OT came in and hijacked yet another thread.

Definitely was. As I mentioned, I'm a veteran too and wouldn't think of being so disgusting as making a joke about their service.

This. And when it comes to history/military threads, Darth is typically on point. I look forward to his take in these threads.

Some people just love to stir shite. I mean, damn.
