What branch of the military was Morton in?:

1. Army

3. Air Force
4. Marines

I will guess number 1.

Thank you for being one of the many that defend my freedom, Sir...

pgardn 11-12-2008 09:13 PM

Did he ever get deployed...?

I say, no.
This would probably frustrate me if I had volunteered.

geeker2 11-12-2008 09:17 PM

Definitely saw action..

and thank you Morty !

Mortimer 11-12-2008 09:17 PM

Again...almost all of you are too kind....but as I have said many times---I did not fight in a war so please give your kind words to guys who deserve it.

Lots of people did not fight in a war.
But they did not volunteer either.

Did Morton volunteer to fight in a war?

I say yes.

Mortimer 11-12-2008 09:23 PM

Of course not...we have the all draft system in affect.

You were still there if needed so accept the kind words. You do deserve them.

Stop being so nice or I will come back.

For me to accept grateful thoughts besmirches ( and I know it is unintentional) the fine work done by too many others who were risking their lives.



I was in radar repair. The only lives risked doing what I did was yours and everyone else's here.

To be honest....no.



I would have gone if ordered to, but never was.

Do they not use radar to detect incoming? You did your part.

:rolleyes:

There was no incoming where I was.

Of course if radar was repaired improperly ...you could have had incoming.

Which is what I meant.
