Airmen told 'no uniforms in city'

A bit like blaming the stick for hitting you, not the person wielding the stick.
It makes no sense to taunt the personnel.

I think a good kick in the balls with military boots would dissuade further taunting.

That cheered me up

It's not right, but Harry Staish has done the guys a favour here.

Airmen wear Uniform off duty...
Airmen get taunted and abused...
Airmen decide to respond in traditional manner...
Civvy Police turn up...

Who do you think will get arrested and then find their career going nowhere?

Yes there are section's of the General Public who need a good kicking...
But doing it in Uniform is not the right way.

Hakahura · 03-07-08, 04:44 AM

Just been informed...

It's Harriet not Harry.

Oops

Argh Torplexed, you beat me to it

I dont see how you can show disrespect to someone in uniform... it is in my opinion hypocritical and downright rude. poor poor showing

fredbass · 03-07-08, 07:49 AM

We, in the USA rarely see this happening anymore. We learned from those mistakes during the Vietnam War, so now we've grown up and have learned to respect those in Uniform and take our complaints to the Government where everyone should, if they disagree with policy.

It's extremely disappointing that it should happen in this country, generally we tend not to be that silly. Government policy and actions tend to be regarded as seperate from the uniformed people.
