Re: putting up the flag....because i can
Thanks for posting that.
As you may know, I am a Vietnam era veteran.
I hope that the American people soon learn to be grateful for what they have, and do not fall prey to Socialism and Tyranny. It almost seems that there are too many "sheeple" out there.

Re: putting up the flag....because i can
Being in the Navy theonly action I saw was sinking one of Muammar Gaddafi Russian Nanuchka-class corvette during "The Line of Death" Two A-6Es from VA-55 attacked a Nanuchka-class corvette which was heading towards the USS Yorktown (CG-4 , prompting CG-48 to vector Intruder to deploy Rockeye munnitions, consequently, striking hostile threat and eventually sinking the vessel off the coast of Benghazi. A Libyan missile installation near Surt (Sirte) launched two Soviet-made SA-5 "Gammon" surface-to-air missiles at us, but missed.
The worst damage we received was when we went to the Black Sea and the Soviet frigate Bezzavetniy rammed us.
I did get a metal for the Achille Lauro hijacker intercept
I can't hang a flag here at my apartment, but my Dad does everyday for me.
