    What was your MOS? There are a number of "Communications" MOSs. What I am really interested in is what your MOS was when you "kept important people safe from harm".

    Whichever MOS, it was to support the 11Bs.

    "just not as fanatical as you"... of course you're not, you're worse. I criticized Obama for things when he $#@!ed up, but you are incapable of even having the ability to recognize that Trump doesn't walk on water.

    You're not going to explain the term, because it is obvious why you used it, it was an attempt to follow the same right wing talking point about the government having departments that they don't think are necessary. That's how much a partisan you are, in a question that was not political in nature, you couldn't even shelve your partisanship in your response.

    Two times in the past, one in the AF during and after Vietnam, two tours, the other training for a position I decided not to take. After the AF I really didn't want to work for the government.

    Have had friends that worked for government. One quit because he couldn't get anything done or it would make others look bad, the other works at the VA and the only way (before Trump) you could get fired was if you became a whistle-blower.

    When Donald Trump said to protest “peacefully”, he meant violence.

    When he told protesters to “go home”, he meant stay for an insurrection.

    And when he told Brad Raffensperger to implement “whatever the correct legal remedy is”, he meant fraud.

    War is peace.

    Freedom is slavery.

    Ignorance is strength.

    Absolutely correct.

    There are two branches in the Army... Infantry and Support.

    Everything exists to support the ground force.

    Ah, so you are resorting to calling everything you dont agree with as fake news or alternative facts, eh?

    I'd like to know two things

    (1) What was the motivation of the OP in changing the question
    (2) Where did the OP go after he was called out for the question.

    Sort of like you calling everyone you disagree with a white nationalist and racist?
