dan 10 Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 Evmori Why would you ask if WHEELER is yaworski? That thought never even crossed my mine. My though was that he very young and just wanted to see how we (BSA leaders) would handle different and unpopular ideas. Link to post Share on other sites
LovetoCamp 9 Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 Who's going to make up participating in the rescue attempt in the desert in 1980? It was an Army Delta operation. A 20 year old Marine would have never left the ship. So, by participating he meant he was doing KP in the galley, serving the Navy Officers their ice cream and mocha lattes. So, I believe him when he says he's a 44 year old Troll. Link to post Share on other sites
evmori 11 Posted February 19, 2004 Author Share Posted February 19, 2004 dan, Some posters are of the impression there is a poster on the board who IS yaworski using another name. You need to lighten up a litte, dan. hops, Good catch! Ed Mori 1 Peter 4:10 Link to post Share on other sites
WHEELER 10 Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 Thanks for all the feedback. Link to post Share on other sites
dan 10 Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 evmori ?!? All I did was ask you why you thought WHEELER was another poster? I am sorry that you felt that I was being heavy handed in my post, I did not mean it that way, and as I reread my post, I do not see how you could have taken it that way? Can you explain to me what I did in the post that made you say, that I need to lighten up? Once again I am confused!?!? Link to post Share on other sites
Fat Old Guy 11 Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 TP showed his ignorance with, "Who's going to make up participating in the rescue attempt in the desert in 1980? It was an Army Delta operation. A 20 year old Marine would have never left the ship." Pardon me but you're a. . . we'll leave that unsaid. If a 20 year old Marine never would have left the ship, how do you explain the the four Marines that died that night? Here's a buck, go buy a clue. They used Navy helos and where the Navy goes, so does the Marine Corps. Marines serving in the wardroom? Gotta laugh. Here's another buck, go buy another clue. Link to post Share on other sites
evmori 11 Posted February 19, 2004 Author Share Posted February 19, 2004 dan, I might have mis-read your post. Sorry. I don't think Wheeler is another poster. Just trying to provoke responses. Ed Mori 1 Peter 4:10 Link to post Share on other sites
LovetoCamp 9 Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 As you were, They were Marine Helicopters, not Navy Helicopters. To anyone serving in the Marine Air Wing, my most humble apologies. I meant an inner-service jab, not an insult. FOG, you served as a Marine on a ship I take it? Link to post Share on other sites
hops_scout 9 Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 You know that's why they formed the 160th SOAR(A). In other words, the Night Stalkers!! An ARMY unit, BTW;) Link to post Share on other sites
Fat Old Guy 11 Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 TP, get your facts straight. The helicopters were from HM-16, read their history at http://members.aol.com/helmineron/hm-16.htm. The confusion is understandable to the layman. Marine Squadrons have an "M" in them as in "VMA-214" so you could jump to the conclusion that HM-16 was a bunch a flying Gyrenes but Marine helo squadrons have a three letter designation as in "HMX-1" or "HMM-165". HM-16 was a Navy Helo squadron. As for whether I was a Marine. No, I didn't have that honor. I was a Naval officer. Link to post Share on other sites
SR540Beaver 116 Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 Evmori, Wheeler = Yaworski? Nah, Wheeler's writing and "knowledge" is too polished. I have always suspected that FOG was Yaworski. It might be all coincidence, but FOG showed up after Yaw left and the attitude, writing style and many elements of their background are very similar. I could be wrong, so I won't be taking any bets. Link to post Share on other sites
packsaddle 753 Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 SR540Beaver, that is a really astute observation. I hadn't considered it but I like it. As for me, I have always wondered what happened to Zorn? You don't think....nah! Link to post Share on other sites
WHEELER 10 Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 I do not post for the fun of it or to goad anything. I am deadly serious about everything I write. I stand behind everything I write and say. Life is not game that many on this website take it as. It is dangerous serious business. Nature kills fools. As Thycidides in his history likes to point out "...Like causes are always followed by like effects: that kind of sequence makes experience possible, and therefore allows some sort of foresight of things to come..." Padeia pg 389. That is why history does repeat itself because human nature does not change. Link to post Share on other sites

"The society which scorns excellence in plumbing as a humble activity and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy because it is an exalted activity will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy: neither its pipes nor its theories will hold water." -John W.

WHEELER 10 Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 Old Grey Eagle, I follow an higher Wisdom. Acts 5.29 "We must obey God rather than men." I John 4.6 "We know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error". James 4.17 "Whoever knows what is right and fails to do it for him, it is sin." Keeping silent is not an option. Titus 2.15 "Declare these things; exhort and reprove with all authority, let no one disregard you." ITim 4.11 "Command and Teach." A definition of effeminacy is available for all men so that they will know the truth. Who else provided it? A definition of virtue is available for all men so that they will know the truth. Who else provided it? Certainly not the Boy Scouts of America with its marxist gender neutral language. Virtue is a word used for thousands of years and all of sudden it disappears especially from an organization that touts itself as (originally) training boys to be men. How can a boy become a man if he has never heard the word virtue? A definition of a Republic is available for all men so that they will know the truth. Who else provided it? Who has pointed out the hypocrisy of the BSA with its promotion of the socialist organization, the UN? Who provided the original intention of the BSA program? You have done none of these things Old Grey Eagle. I have. Who shows a greater love of the organization? One who keeps or the one who obscures? Link to post Share on other sites
