Spent two summers there. The first time I got back my young daughter didn't know who I was. Seeing how it ended makes me physically ill. If I'm more obnoxious than usual on Golmud, blame the liquor.
Any other Afghanistan vets on here?

Kapitanium, Thank You for your service!
I have been staying away from the news. Once again our fine men and women serve with honor -- and our politicians never feel the shame they deserve.
No, but lots of respect to you and all your brothers, both here and gone. Sacrificed their lives just for Afganistan to fall in the end :/
At least we were able to stall it.

Interesting take. Afghanistan falling?
The way I understand things is that the people of Afghanistan, or any other country, can select their leaders/government as they see fit. Do you think the US, or any other power has a right to decide for the afghan people?
I'd say this statement is inherently political, why am I the one to get a warning for replying? Are only the ones with the "right" political opinion(s) allowed to post about politics? Looks that way to me, maybe you can clear it up.
This statement:
Thanking someone for their service is not a political post and the above statement is fact. These are our forums Fluff, not yours. You seem to forget that. you always looking for a fight..well I can end it real quick. This Charlie Brown mentality you have of "why is everybody picking on me" is getting old. Grow a pair or get the fuck out.
Sorry, saying Afghanistan "falling" was in relation to the government collapsing when the Taliban took over the Kabul this week after US troops pulled out. I didn't mean to show any political bias specifically due to that no politics rule, merely meant to reiterate from the news to accompany my remark on all the lives that were lost in the process of trying to keep this very thing from happening.
Apologies if I brought any offense or it seemed political in nature, but in hindsight I guess a country being taken over is politics in a way.

Most of knew you meant nothing by it.. Dont worry about it.. My son was there as well.
I don't have any issue with the thanking part, which is why I edited it out.
Your house, your rules. How you manage your house is up to you, of course. I am just raised to believe that rules should be applied equally. So warning me for replying to a political statement doesn't make sense.
I like

Welcome to AARP, where the rules are arbitrary, and you'll be called a nitpicking crybaby if you ask admin to clear up a misunderstanding.
