  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

The V-22 Osprey is in full production now. I think the marines ordered around 250-300 Ospreys. I may join the Marines just to fly an Osprey ;).
I know all about the Osprey's...great HeloPlane ;)...I'm gonna try to get a good look @ its manuevers here in the near future.

mostly the A-10, but i like the new F-35 because of its verticlal takeoff abilities

is the F-35 like the Harrier the Marines fly?? We have lost a lot of Harriers recently, the most recent one landing on a neighborhood out in town with live ammo on board :eek: Wasn't a good day for the USMC that day. Thankfully no one was seriously hurt, but several houses were leveled. It wasn't great for community relations here I can tell you that.

The F-35B- Navy

If you are planning to enlist, I would suggest the Air Force. The Air Force has the smartest enlisted members. The officers in the Army and Marines send the enlisted off to fight. The Navy officers and enlisted fight on a boat, but the Air Force enlisted send the officers (pilots) off to fight. Just kidding! I would recommend anyone of the services. I only prefer the Air Force because I am in it!

You obviously don't know the same Marine I am joining because frankly...I see the Marine and Army officers in the same suck as the Enlisted men....

That crack about the Marine officers is a crock. My husband is enlisted and I am saying it is a crock. As a matter of fact, the last deployment my dh had, there wasn't enough room to get the whole unit home at once and the officers who weren't flying their own planes stayed behind so the rest of the enlisted men could get home first. Every single USMC officer I know is right out there with their guys. So I guess that shoots holes in your AF has the smartest members argument. :mad: You are clearly speaking from opinion and not actual fact.

Go Intel...they get some great reenlistment bonuses, although it is a tough job if you have a family, they are gone A LOT. ;) Glad you are feeling better, I had pneumonia in June, man I have never been so sick. :thumbsup:
