Do we or do we not have a list moderator ? This is a genealogy list, is it not? If I was on a political list where this was a relevant subject and I disagreed with the individual then my simply hitting the delete button would be an appropriate response. However, this is not a political list and this isn't even a personal observation of the individual. It's just out and out SPAM. Broadly circulated bandwidth choking SPAM. Plus snopes.com gives it as probably false spam, Camp Bondsteel being in Kosovo not Bosnia. But that's not the point. It's SPAM. I'm subscribed to a Rootsweb gene list where the subject is about Neosho KS--not SPAM.

He said if such a thing happens, we wouldn't be able to count on the support of France. I told him that it didn't surprise me. Since we had come to France's rescue in World War I, World War II, Vietnam, and the Cold War, their ingratitude and jealousy was due to surface at some point in the near future anyway. That is why France is a third-rate military power with a socialist economy and a bunch of faggots for soldiers. I additionally told him that America, being a nation of deeds and action, not words, would do whatever it had to do, and France's support was only for show anyway. Just like in all NATO exercises, the US would shoulder 85% of the burden, as evidenced by the fact that the French officer was shopping in the American PX, and not the other way around. He began to get belligerent at that point, and I told him if he would like to, I would meet him outside in front of the Burger King and beat his ass in front of the entire Multi-National Brigade East, thus demonstrating that even the smallest American had more fight in him than the average Frenchman. He called me a barbarian cowboy and walked away in a huff. With friends like these, who needs enemies? Sincerely, Mary Beth Johnson, Lt Col, USMC
