It's not useful but fun and in 80 days I ets and my wife will still be in Iraq so don't go thinking I take anything for granted. And about the hooah thing it got old like 2 weeks after basic training and the air power deal is just lame just my opinions that's all

In regards to your comment supermac88, you are mistaken about the origin of the phrase Hoowah. It IS an Army phrase dating back to the mid 1800's. When an Army General and his men greeted an Indian tribe, the Indian Chief attempted to say, "How are you?" But it came out as, "Hoowah. If the Marines say something similar, then it must come from the Army. Having done tours in the desert and now living in Europe has taught me one thing. America is truely the greatest country in the world and we have much to be proud of. It does us no good to bash each other's services, i.e. "Chair Force"

And bro you know that that was just in fun not meant to bash anyone just take it easy. You know that every branch of the military says little things about the others but we all know we need each other. Like I am a tanker but I make fun of scouts and infantry which I need. They make fun of me because the tank does almost all the work but they never complain when it is cold or they are getting spanked so it was just in fun man.

Dude, I liked you until now. :down:
What's the point of arguing about which service is better? Especially with the most recent world events. You sir, are petty.

I'm cool with you again if you were just poking fun because, ya, military does do that to each other.
Thanks for the reply.
