Not to put words in his mouth, but it sounds to me like he is saying you guys want the easy win and not the hard win, not that your department has any intention of going after the street gangs once you get rid of the bikers.

1) In addition to not being infantry, I believe you are also a leg. Other than those two incredibly obvious problems, what is your biggest regret about your time in the service? -I really wish I had made NCO a few months faster. If I had tried out for jumpmaster school they would have rewarded me with a CPL stripes and a fire team. I didn't have much time with the team and wish I'd been able to wrap my head around that role a little more before everyone shipped out.

2) Conversely, what would you consider to be your greatest impact or accomplishment?

  • There are several times I avoided pulling a trigger when, by training, I should have, and could have "gotten away" with it, but it would have done a lot of harm and I'm glad I didn't.

3) Of the people you served with, which one took the least expected path after discharge? - We had a guy we were all sure would end up in prison who now works for the CIA.

4) What is the most bonkers thing you saw overseas? - I was once kicked out of a shower trailer in Mosul for being too dirty.

5) If you have any experience with the VA, how was it? -Mine has been mediocre, but they pay me.

What models do you repair most often? For me, I've never had a vacuum that would, in my mind, justify calling a repair man. I spend about 100 bucks and I'm on my second vacuum in 12 years. Am I doing something wrong?

Are there any robot vacuum cleaners that are worth a damn? I bought an old Roomba at a garage sale. Thing didn't do jack. Did I get a lemon?

What vacuum do you use in your home?
