[QUOTE="Blackhorse, post: 554504, member: 1365"] Hmmm. Just because some REMF didn’t see combat it wasn’t likely their fault. Just a roll of the dice in some clerk’s office where unit assignments are made. And just going to a combat zone doesn’t make one a combat vet. Again, it’s chance not choice that took them there one way or t’other. Heck, I was assigned to the 11th Armored Cavalry, one of the hottest combat units in Nam, as a medic. I came under enemy fire and slept through gas attacks. But I don’t claim to be a combat vet. Just kinda unlucky on occasion. Sure, I did my part...but my real respect goes to the boys of today’s military...doing 3, 4, 5 and more tours. OMG. My hat’s off to you gents, for real. [/QUOTE]
