But I do agree that the Army gets sh*t on more then anyone else.
Actually the Marines get **** on more than anyone else. The Marines are the first in and usually the last out. The nick name "Jar Head" is not a term of endearment. There is no other service that I respect more than the US Marines. - Alas, I am not a Marine though.

let me tell you why I think most army nuts are dumber than birdsh*t.
You dig your own grave to sleep in
This "grave"is called a fighting position. Fight is something every soldier is taught how to do.

The nick name bullet catcher, has more truth to it than you'd like to admit
Through all the years as a soldier and interacting with all branches of service and getting **** faced with a good number of them, the term bullet catcher has never been used. Perhaps you as a civilian can enlighten the forum on the origin of this derogatory remark towards the men and women that faithfully serve and protect the country you live in?

TDY for us means "vacation", TDY for you means "HELL"
I do not know where you are getting your facts from, or better yet your misinformation but TDY (Temporary Duty Station) means either school, or an assignment less than 6 months away from your permanent duty station. By what you are stating though is that zoomies utilize tax payers dollars to take a vacation when they should be conducting official government business. Nice to know that the Airforce represents the United States Government so well.

Now, Im not going to knock that you guys are some of the hardest working, abused, and unloved SOB's the US military has ever turned out.
Again the hardest working in the US Military are the US Marines and the Special Forces to include Rangers and Airborne.

If it werent for you my hubby would probally be god knows where.
Perhaps you truly need to learn something about the origins of the US Airfoce before you go spouting off more crap. The US Airforce used to be part of the Army, before being split off to form it's own branch.

The IQ thing, is a fact though.. only the craziest mofos, or the stupidest want to be infantry....
Now I'm not crazy nor am I stupid BUT I am Infantry. I serve my country where my country needs me most. I am not going to listen to some newly wed zoomie dependent that has no military service to EVER call an Infantry Man crazy or stupid. You're an ignorant, self righteous ***** whose husband if he had any respect for the uniform he wears would put you in your place regarding respect of other services. Until the day you ever don a uniform legally and serve honorably in the US Armed Services shut your pie hole and respect anyone that is willing to serve and possibly give the ultimate sacrifice for your country.
