That is something i will remember for the rest of my life there were people for 15 miles cheering them home and the police escort was huge, we had police oficers from almost every suburb in coulmbus and then some. I was just trying to imagine what it felt like to them to have that feeling of being a hero and the great deal of appreciation they were getting after such hard times. I was going to join the army about 4 years back but my life was in the wrong spot at the time, i think it will be somthing I regret till the day i die, i feel like it would have been a great feeling of accomplishment and that i did something so good for my country, my people, and myself. Hats off to all of you that served i dont take you guys forgranted.
i just thinks it dump period to wear military uniforms in a airport think about it if u were going to try and take over a plane and u see some one in their uniform who is the first person who u are going to kill the guy u think that might cause a problem....take marine as and example we are told not to were moto shirts or say moto stuff becasuse if something did go down we want the element of suprise but that is just my .02$ o and they also wear it in the mall i mean how gay is thatssj4sadie said:LS1marine, the commerical would have lost the meaning of appreciation, and would be a recruting tool for one particular branch of service if they had been in blues, class a's etc etc. Although it is stupid to just wear the uniform around especially(sp?) you marines and most of the army now i guess, those new uniforms are butt ass ugly. Keep in mind though alot of civilans don't know the shyt i go through in the air force, and can't even imagine the kind of dedication it takes to be a marine.
