1992 and the following 8 years are *always* going to be embedded as some of the suckiest years of the military since I originally joined in '82. Which is one of many reasons I *don't* want to see another democrat in office as long as I am serving, which just happens to be about 8 years until retirement. Understand that this is not my only reason for voting for McCain, but after serving under three republican presidents (Regan, Bush and Bush) and one democrat (Clinton), I have to say that the Republicans have the military dialed in.
And as an aside, I was talking to my interpreters today over tea and smokes, and all of them want McCain to win. Go figure.
