Do the terms "Mother Superior" or "Waffen SS Guy" hold any meaning for
you? Do you believe them to be attempts at personal humiliation?


Tsk. How about "the old organ grinder" and "red-hatted
monkey?" How about "Senator Lenhorn?" "Major Hoople?"
:-)

Since Heil is bound and determined to find typos and
misspellings, all we have to do is scrutinize HIS
epic prose in here and make him wallow in his own
typographical errors...forever and ever... :-)


Oh, I'll make an occasional typo, Len.


NO!?! Say it isn't SO! You are PERFECT, you are an Amateur
EXTRA morseman!



I wasn't a draftee, Len. Nobody in the Air Force was a draftee. Nobody
in the Navy was a draftee. I enlisted for four years. The minimum Navy
hitch was for three. Draftees were non-volunteers who served two years.
Now what?


Your Air Medal will arrive shortly in the mail...


Oddly enough, I was not in the "amateur radio contesting" AFSC, yet my
contesting skills were exactly the same skills I used in my Air Force
duties.


Riiiight...your logs were submitted to the ARRL for
verification, right?


...but you went through schooling. I was actually working within two
days of my arrival at my first assignment. That was about
seven-and-a-half weeks after I first entered the Air Force.


You want an Oak Leaf Cluster on your Air Medal?!?



Have you found people who are interested in seeing your proof, Len? I'm
not offering you any proof. I have no intention of providing you
digitized anything. Now what?


Now we know that you will continue your snow-jobbery
in here. As expected...



... I never said that I never
received any specialty training after basic training. I wrote that I
never attended any military technical school.


Yeah...you DO want that Oak Leaf Cluster! :-)



... I had nothing to do with AFRS or AFRTS.


GOOD!



But...in Heil's case WE don't really know in DETAIL what
Heil actually did.


No, you don't actually know what I did.


No problem...you aren't about to provide PROOF to anyone!


He hasn't described it in anything but
vague generalities and intimations of work performed.


No, I haven't described it in detail.


No problem...you aren't about to provide PROOF to anyone!

:-)


As always to you, ByteBrothers famous phrase invoked.
