You did not know "GIs" who had Type 1 and who were then

Sigh. Doctors and nurses are commissioned officers, not
inducted.

What happened to those "GIs with Type 1 diabetes" that you knew?
When
did
they transmogrify into doctors with commissions?


They didn't. They were always GIs. Even draftees were
referred to
as GIs. its military slang. But then, you weren't worthy of
serving,
with you having been rejected as a useless defective.

Hey, I wasn't the one with the five 4Fs. You were apparently a
useful
defective. d8-)


You think tahat's funny? I was born sick. I have survivied into
my
mid 50's in spite of being told I wouldn't. I've survived medical
problems i was told I couldn't. You have to try a lot harder than
that.

No, it's not funny. But after you called me a "useless defective," I
thought
you might want to reflect on the fact that you've described yourself
as a
"defective," five times over. Then you might wonder why you're saying
such
stupid things.

Do you ever think about what you've typed, Michael, before you post
it?


Yes, he does, and that's the problem. The guy is simply a jackass. All
you have to do is read a few of his posts and that's perfectly clear.
He's obviously a bitter, loser and it shows in what he writes. The
highlight of his life was being in the military so he's constantly
talking about how great and important he was then. He's pathetic. Which
is why I won't waste any time on him. He has nothing positive to
contribute. So all he does is talk about how valuable he was to the
military or criticize others. Like I said, he's a jackass. Screw him and
the horse he rode in on.
