You might have a point there. George W Bush didn't go either. Joined the reserves and protected Texas from being attacked by Oklahoma.
Mission Accomplished.


Billy Jeff Blythe ran to England ... Obama did nothing even in peace time ... Gore guarded a typewriter in Saigon ... McCain and Dole suffered life changing injuries only to be belittled by the left for their injuries.

I think even the OP gets the hypocrisy of folks like you Frank.

Those who did nothing to pay for their freedom bother me, those who badmouth others for the same sin disgust me.

Now go play COBRA CORPS with your GI JOE collection.

I didn't serve either (1Y no ear drum right ear)- but wuod not have served anyway. It was a war started for a false reason, fought the wrong way, and embarrasingly lost, 50+ thousand men died for absolutely nothing and who knows how many lives werre ruined as a result of that mess. It's a staim that can not be erassed from our past. Those who avoided serving should be applauded


So you believe you can pick and choose when you're going to serve if you are called up. It's a good thing the continental army didn't feel the way you do or we would still be serving the queen. There were many who didn't feel we should have gotten involved in World War II in which case all of Europe would currently be speaking German. In my opinion you're just a coward and one who spells like a third grader.

So Donald J. Trump didn't go to Vietnam......we were in Vietnam from 1959-1975, lost 58,000+ Americans (the number climbs when MIA's are identified), in a war they didn't want us to win in exchange for huge profits for companies like RMK-BRJ (the 'J' stood for Johnson as in Lady Bird). I went as many Vietnam Vets did....ask us if we would do it again for a country that SPIT on us when we came back and screws so many Vets out of care and benefits that we THOUGHT we earned !!! GO DONALD TRUMP-make us great again :-)
So Donald J. Trump didn't go to Vietnam......we we... (show quote)

Were you drafted and then decided to join the Navy to try to avoid combat?


I had a dependent Mother, I couldn't have been drafted. I joined the Navy because it was the right thing to do.

My apologies, but I still disagree with your initial post. Bone spurs can make it difficult to stand, let alone march or fight.

I have had bone spurs. My argument is that he lied (what a shock). He just didn't want to go, but there were a lot of guys who didn't want to go but did anyway and died.

And a lot of guys chickened out and ran off to Canada. Others claimed conscientious objector status. I know a few of them that were no more conscientious objectors than I was. Then our ignorant politicians gave the Canada runners a free pass to come back after the war was over. I don't hear you ridiculing them? Since we are suppose to forgive them why not Trump as well? Is what you're accusing him of so much different? Bone spurs can vary in severity and very debilitating. Can you prove he lied about having them?

No proof. Just more lies and verbal flatulence from the Left.
