Speaking of being a "Dipshit."

Who was the Dipshit who started a Dipshit of the Year poll and nominated himself to be a leading contender?

Take a bow, COIdiot!

While we are commemorating dates; Oct. 23rd, 1944. The remaining part of the Japanese fleet attacks the US invasion forces in Leyete Gulf. The only defending ships are five tin cans. The 16 jeep carriers have no defensive armament. The Japanese have the super battleship Yamato plus three other battlships, four heavy cruisers, and a dozen other ships. As the jeeps tried to get up steam and raise anchors (their best speed was still less than the slowest Japanese ship) the tin cans made smoke and attacked and overwhelmingly superior force with torpedoes and five inch guns. Taking hit after hit the tin cans pressed the attacked to the point of launching torpedoes. Two ships were sank quickly by gunfire. The USS Johnston withdrew having a 15 degree list and missing one stack. After suppressing the shipboard fires the Johnston once again engaged with nothing but guns coming close enough to a battleship that the enemy guns could not suppress to fire on them. Still enemy cruisers sank the Johnston as they emptied their magazines. Only the USS Hermann survived the attack. Meanwhile the jeep carriers were launching every aircraft, armed or not, at the Japanese fleet. Not have any armor piercing bombs that best that could be hoped for to damage a cruiser or battleship, maybe sink a destroyer.
This suicidal agressive attack by the United States Navy convinced the Japanese commander that a larger task force must be just over the horizon. He retired leaving the 100,000 soldiers untouched on the beach.

This was the highest quality of bravery in the face of a superior enemy.

Second Marine Dies In Operations Against ISIS
Oct 25th 2014 2:45PM

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Pentagon says a Marine who died Thursday in a noncombat incident in Baghdad was the second U.S. military death associated with the campaign against the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria.

The Marine was identified as 19-year-old Lance Cpl. Sean P. Neal of Riverside, California. The Pentagon isn't providing more details and says it's investigating.

On Oct. 2, the Navy said a Marine who ejected from an MV-22 Osprey aircraft over the Persian Gulf was presumed lost at sea. The Osprey flew from aboard a Navy ship supporting U.S. operations in Iraq and Syria.

That was the first death associated with the fight against ISIS. But Pentagon officials say that Marine isn't on the Defense Department's public list of deaths because the official paperwork hasn't been completed.

Party!

my only regret is i didn't get the chance to go to Jerusalem, to the Wailing Wall. My Dad visited it in the US Army in the early 1950's.(Korea) my Granddad served in the Army in WW1. most of my cousins served in Vietnam. most in the Navy or Air Force. my family has served our Nation. 3 generations and counting. Hell, i'm the only one that didn't get drafted. I volunteered. Join the Navy, see the World. including Haifa Israel. Shalom!
