Wow I'm impressed JimLad. You've been on the tarmac when bodies have been loaded have you? You're my hero.
Just how heavily involved were you in these incidents you cite?
Bullets incoming? Big bangs going off near your soft skinned truck? Or writing some admin drivel about the incidents (as I suspect) after the event?
You've made your bed I'm afraid. And your argument seems to still be along the lines of "hey we deserve the pay!".
Let me broadcast this to you clearly:
YOU DON'T.
The guys on the ground deserve better. You civilian wage mercenary "volunteers" are on a good number and you know it.
How dare you compare yourselves to serving airmen.
I'm not going to join you on the DII thing thank you. You've had just about as much spleen as I can vent for now. (And I'm not on the system)
I will make this clearer for you this time.
When you see bodies coming home, I hope you sleep better at night having read your bank balance.
Your type make my blood boil and I wouldn't p*ss on you if you were on fire.
