Like any group, there are bad apples..
We had a wife beater in one of my units...
he moved into the barracks and fell down the stairs a few times....

I'm sorry you got such a bad apple....

We had similar incident, a guy who got caught stealing when we were in open barracks...he uh, went thru the second story window!

Never did steal again! Within a year, dishonorably discharged :thumbsup:

I know what you mean and it's true but whether the Army , Marines or any branch one bad apple can't ever spoil the whole bunch...Marines are OK with me and I have always felt the Coast Guard did not get near the respect they deserve...any of you Coast Guard Members out there...:thumbsup:

I'll second that!

Remember, this is in fun only..atleast from my point of view. As I said before, we'd be screwed as a nation, as a people, if we were missing any of these specialists.

God bless our Military....sums it up best :drink:

I was in the USCG from 1965-1969. I agree and paraphrasing Rodney Dangerfield, "We get no respect."

IIRC, there's at least one other member who was (or is) in the the Coast Guard.

I've come to rely on the advice that I get from everyone on here. I've saved thousands of dollars on projects because of TBN and the great people on here!!!!!!

If I want to start a project, or find out about something, this is where I go to post a question.

Thank you everyone,
Eddie

ditto that for sure.... heck.. if I run across something i'm unfamiliar with.. usually a quick post to tbn nets 5-10 hits with half of them being the exact info I needed to proceede..

gotta love it.

I have not made it to any of the TBN get togethers.

I always wonder what everyone is like away from the computer. Ie, All of us type different than we talk, and there is no personal inflection on a keyboard. By that, I mean the subtle nuances of voice, facial expression ect.

I have met a couple people in person from another board, and we have been good friends since. But, that was before the WWW. We met back before Windows, and GUI's. In the mid 80's, we had email digests. Back then, the Home Brew Digest was just that, a once a day email digest.

i hang out at a couple other sites and while at shows and such i have met in person say.. 6 people that I met from tractor sites. always nice to put a face to a name.
