Heh. Just, heh.

No political or religious topics please. Otherwise, anything goes, as long as we treat each other with respect.

Like the man says

from the Castle Argghhh!

Now this was discussed, satirically, over at AF Blues (now Farvatoons ) a couple years ago. Talk about life imitating art.

I don't care how they spin it, there is no way on this earth it can equate to anything in the, y'know, REAL WORLD. Jesus, what did they do, choke on a cheetos while watching a hellfire impact? Spill their coffee on their crotch? Come On :roll:

Absolutely ridiculous. I'm all for the use of drone tech (keeps the most important system on the aircraft intact and out of harms way) but if you think you desearve a medal for being good at a really expensive version of COD you need a kick in the head.

Lordy :P

Although *technically, I suppose as long as they normal awards they would be kosher..

The Bronze Star Medal is awarded for "heroic or meritorious achievement or service, not involving aerial flight, while engaged in combat against an enemy or while serving in combat with friendly foreign forces"
