Mustang, what are you saying our wars werent nothing?? You try fighting a enemy that you very rarely seen, boobie traps all thru the jungles and fighting with equip that was used back in the Korean war and WWII eating C rats that where made in 1944. Did we have bullet proof vest? hell no we didnt did we have armored vehicles hell no we didnt. did we have encoming on our base camps dang near every night hell yes we did. This war in iraq is nothing different then what we went thru but one thing we old salts had was morals and we had NCOs that would burn your arse for some of this crap thats going on. You Talk PTSD I have PTSD and i know several others that have it also and i know for a fact I would not kill something that was not a threat to me.. and i know for a fact the brothers i know wouldnt either..

No, no, no, not at all! What I said was "We, the younger generation, know nothing about the pain endured in Korea, Viet Nam, or even the first Gulf War, but you also haven't walked in his/her boots and fought in this war."
Which means exactly that. You all went through some pretty serious shat, in a different war, in a different era, on a different battle ground. Stuff I can't even begin to imagine.
Just as you were so quick to defend your experiences and anyone doubting what you went through, I am trying to do the same. Think about how you would feel if some one started causing a big stink becuase they found out that during a patrol you had shot a Vietnamese dog. Regradless of what the circumstances were.
I have nothing but respect for all my fellow Vets of other wars. The way Viet Nam vets were treated upon their return was shameful. Just remember that they are all different. Our Marines are experiencing this every day as well (Code Pink, etc)
We are all on the same team, that was all I was trying to say.

Hrscowboy, as an aside...
I did mention in another post, in a different thread that he does deserve punishment if indeed found guilty. NJP, office hours, whatever the commander sees fit pending the outcome of the investigation.
Innocent until proven guilty.
