    Jesus fucking Christ you suck. Two days and the best you could come up with to prove you were in the military is a picture off the Internet and a uniform? I can find millions of pictures of military people on the Internet that look enough like me I could claim it was me. And it would probably take me an afternoon to find a uniform at Goodwill or one of the surplus stores. Probably with patches already on it. Just use whatever digital camera you used to take that picture to take pictures of your snapshots and end this once and for all. Because at this point even if you CAN prove what you claim you still wind up looking like an idiot.

    I crossed out part of it so it didn't show my full name or the bar code. The funny thing is we got back to Ft Bragg in Oct 2004 and I was getting out in Dec but they gave me an ID which lasted for a full two additional years. Not that I did anything with it other than put it in a box .

    Those two days being Xmas eve and Xmas day those two days when everyone has lots of family stuff to do? As if any store selling uniforms is open on Xmas day much less an alterations shop to have patches sewed on. You're basically a human dirtbag, dude.

    I cropped it close to avoid the social and all that stuff but you can see my last name (I blacked out the rest) and you can see Box 11 which lists primary MOS.

    I notice I didn't get an overseas training ribbon for Panama. I guess that's because back in the day the Canal Zone was considered part of the US.

    What I love is how Volpone thinks a Christian organization like the Good Will is going to be open on Christmas Day. You sanctimonious sack of shit. You're so full of shit it is coming out of your ears.

    Actually Volpone was also an officer in ta military. And at least attends church.

    But there are other places than goodwill in this world that sell used clothing of any kind with or without patches.

    Just sayin.

    And before you go all dinner on me for responding. I'm just pointing some stuff out. :shrug: Spew somewhere else.

    The pictures and the DD214 with the military ID don't do anything for you, huh? Also, no, at 2am Kinko's was not open.

    Wait, Dinner's a fucking veteran, and he was cheering on the cops beating veteran protesters under Trump 1.0?
    Jesus, the cheese really did fall off his cracker.

    Won’t you please give? So that we can find a cure, and help Dinner, and thousands of other Americans just like him become productive members of our society.
