And don't pay any attention to Trav (catman)----------He's one of us "psyco vets" like the rest of us........he just has trouble admitting it sometimes.

You'll find some real great folks around here.

Thanks All for the the warm welcome

I did not know about this site until today Bob Ryan is on another site like me Military Police Home page. He asked on the other site how to get his Military Signature working on this site. It took me a while but I got it to work for me and passed on the info. One of the members on MPHP a Disabled Vet developed them and the site. I think they are great he has been asking us for suggestions has on what to add and how we like them. They can be used on all different things I am only semi computer literate so I don't know all, Again Thanks for the welcome I will be stopping by.

[Robert Ryan]

Welcome to the site Bill :)

Welcome to Patriotfiles. I'm the self-appointed, therapist for the site. (don't mean nothing) However you must watch out for some of those Psyco's. Those Southern Boys can be real sickos and the one from Indiana has some real problems. But, even though they are sickos they for the most part are harmless.

Thanks for the link, pretty cool stuff over there!


Trav

Ditto! Nifty site!

[SergeantJay]

Hey Bill, hope you don't mind me posting on your thread here..

I'm a new member too. Robert told me and Bill about your site. I like the way the forums are laid out. Nice job.

[catman]

Welcome to the "psyco" ward! I must warn you, some of the guys on here are a bit touched!

One claims to be a retired cop from Indy, another claims he is a minister and counselor, Doc Fred and Doc Hal....well just watch those two. LT, well, he is LT but keep one eye on him...some of the others you will just have to experience.

What all this boils down to Jay is, if you want to know something about these folks, just ask me as I am the only sane one of the bunch!

Jay and Bill
Welcome to the site and disregard any comments made by anyone regarding a retired cop from Indiana.....I've met him personally and he's a great guy.
After looking at all the rank you guys earned in the service, The only thing I can say is......Ya'll did some serious suckin'-up:).....From a guy who made E-4 twice

[catman]

That was not a very nice posting was it CAPTAIN?

Geez, Captain on a Sherrif's department, that job must come with it's own kneepad allowance!


Trav

[b3196]

Trav
It did...and I used em wisely

[catman]

Good thinking! I would say you are wise beyond your years, but at your age.....I do not know if that is possible!


Bill, Jay....see what I told you about these guys!

Trav

[Keith_Hixson]

Two E-4's equal and E-8. Now, I'd say you did really well in just three years. Did you notice I got a good conduct medal.

Keith

[b3196]

Keith
How do you get one of dem good conduct medals?

[catman]

You get them by spending lots of time on your knees..........praying!




Trav

[Bill Niedzwiedz]

Thanks Guys,
Just to let you know Jay is the Designer and owner of So if you like the site let him know and if you have any input also tell him. He is very open to suggestions.

Hey B3196 I made E-6 twice I was in got out. Was out too long went back in as an E-2 through Basic and AIT all over again and made my way back up to E-6. so I should really be an E-11 :D:D

[Keith_Hixson]

Brother Bob believes that being deviant is normal. Why would he have become a Deputy Sheriff. Travis I see you have one of those good conduct medals.

Keith

[Bill Niedzwiedz]

If being LE is deviant then I am screwed, Guess what I did after I got out of the Military???:D:D

[catman]

I did real real good as I was also awarded a Reserve Component Good Conduct Medal!

When I went to the desert in 91, I had just come home from Korea and there was a National Guard Unit that was needing personel. I, and 4 others, were assigned to them and deployed with them.

When we returned, we stayed with them until they "demob" and they awarded each of us a Good Conduct Medal! Also the Unit that awarded me my Bronze Star, this was not a medal issued for valor, just a big "at-a-boy" award.

Bill
I have the same story....I got out also, but they found me and dragged my ass back to base.....Just kidding. I got the big demotion for flipping the bird with my helmet liner on backwards to $hit load of TV cameras that was doing a story on convoy supply lines. Probably would never had been caught if the stupid Army hadn't put all those numbers on the front bumper of my truck. Some people have no sense of humor.... With all that being said, how the hell do I get one of dem good conduct medals

Oh thank God! I've been in need of therapy for some time now... LOL So please feel free to analyze my post and give me your diagnosis. I like you guys already.

[Robert Ryan]

Frisco Kid is a 101st vet also from Vietnam. My time with the 101st was at Fort Campbell. I was not Airborne qualifed. But did grad from Air Assault School back when Custer was a Corpral.

Keith I made E4 twice before making E5. Things weren't going to well during certain times and salty comments have a way of bringing that into perspective. My learning curve was really a tough one. Attitude adjustments were impressed upon my person. Once I fell into step the world once again began to revolve. A model soldier I'm not but I showed up to do my bit.

By the way guys - Welcome Aboard. We can use all the help we can get. BobK is my hero along with so many more I can't begin to say. You guys have anything you need to unload - this is the place but be ready for those who know - to let you know where the road forked - if ya know what I mean.

Thank you for your service to our country and god bless all our trooper's everywhere.
