A <a href="http://www.thetowntalk.com/article/20090120/NEIGHBORHOODS05/301210004">letter and response to Luke AFB</a>:<blockquote>The complaint<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">Question of the day for Luke Air Force Base:<br /><br />Whom do we thank for the morning air show? Last Wednesday, at precisely 9:11 A.M, a tight formation of four F-16 jets made a low pass over Arrowhead Mall, continuing west over Bell Road at approximately 500 feet.. Imagine our good fortune! Do the Tom Cruise-wannabes feel we need this wake-up call, or were they trying to impress the cashiers at Mervyn's early bird special?<br /><br />Any response would be appreciated.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">The response:</span><br /><br />Regarding 'A wake-up call from Luke's jets' On June 15, at precisely 9:12 a.m., a perfectly timed four- ship fly by of F-16s from the 63rd Fighter Squadron at Luke Air Force Base flew over the grave of Capt. Jeremy Fresques. Capt Fresques was an Air Force officer who was previously stationed at Luke Air Force Base and was killed in Iraq on May 30, Memorial Day.<br /><br />At 9 a.m. on June 15, his family and friends gathered at Sunland Memorial Park in Sun City to mourn the loss of a husband, son and friend. Based on the letter writer's recount of the fly by, and because of the jet noise, I'm sure you didn't hear the 21-gun salute, the playing of taps, or my words to the widow and parents of Capt. Fresques as I gave them their son's flag on behalf of the President of the United States and all those veterans and servicemen and women who understand the sacrifices they have endured..<br /><br />A four-ship fly by is a display of respect the Air Force gives to those who give their lives in defense of freedom. We are professional aviators and take our jobs seriously, and on June 15 what the letter writer witnessed was four officers lining up to pay their ultimate respects.<br /><br />The letter writer asks, 'Whom do we thank for the morning air show? The 56th Fighter Wing will make the call for you, and forward your thanks to the widow and parents of Capt Fresques, and thank them for you, for it was in their honor that my pilots flew the most honorable formation of their lives.<br /><br />Only 2 defining forces have ever offered to die for you ... Jesus Christ and the American Soldier. One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.<br /><br />Lt.. Col. Grant L.

Researchers found that the young women were more than twice as likely as non-military young women to be infected with venereal diseases.

Mark Cuban <a href="http://dirtyharrysplace.com/?p=5701">bankrolled the failed movie Redacted</a>, which portrayed soldiers as rapists and monsters, and it was a colossal dud at the box office.

One only hopes that these images will get the public incensed enough to motivate their Congressmen to vote against this war," he said.” The movie was financed by a company of Cuban’s and is thus directly supported by Cuban. Cuban described the movie in his speech at Blogworld by saying “Soldiers are bored 99% of the time, this film is about what they do with the other 1%.”</blockquote><div align="left">Obviously, soldiers do not indiscriminately kill, but apparently rich dickheads like Cuban find it in their heart to manipulate the market to their advantage when they are "not bored".

Barker says she's also heard of recruiters showing up to events with climbing walls and video games.</blockquote>Apparently public property is acceptable for everyone except the military, perhaps because they aren't viewed as the public. Or perhaps because voluntary military service is a burden to over-worried mothers who can't stand to see the sight of military recruiters.

Trial lawyers and corruption are not unusual for politics, however, so his opponents wife in his district, <a href="http://www.lawyerintl.com/attorney-218584-Belovich%20Barbara%20A/">Barbara Belovich</a>, decided to play up the weirdness of having a military background as opposed to years prosecuting slip and fall accidents.

Now he has been forced to deal with the politics of that decision. The opponent in his tough re-election fight, trial attorney Bob Belovich, is attacking Mr. Mandel’s service, arguing that he abandoned voters. Mr. Belovich’s wife, Barbara, acknowledged in an interview for this column that she has told voters that Mr. Mandel “went AWOL” (a military term for desertion) by fighting in Iraq.<br /><br />Even Mr. Mandel’s motives for serving in Iraq are being questioned. Mrs. Belovich claimed in an interview with this columnist that Mandel “put his personal ambitions ahead of his constituents.” Asked why anyone would enter a war zone out of “personal ambition,” Barbara Belovich replied curtly, “Certainly he wasn’t serving our needs.”</blockquote>Audio of CHUDs in their backroom dealings are <a href="http://blip.tv/file/1397339">here</a>. Bob Belovich then suggested the only reason he won the 2006 election was because he had a Jewish name.

From <a href="http://www.lewrockwell.com/shaffer/shaffer183.html">Lew Rockwell</a>:<blockquote>To characterize this air show as a form of entertainment is to misjudge its intended purpose. Like the annual May Day military parades conducted by the Soviet government, the objective of this exercise was to remind people of the disproportion of power that the state exercises over them. Should you harbor any sentiments of disobedience to state authority, this is what government officials have at their disposal to bring you back into line. At a time when it became known that a large body of American troops had been returned from Iraq to be deployed in American cities, the presence of such Navy hardware added to the intimidation. President Bush’s threat to members of Congress – as reported by one congressman – to impose martial law should they fail to pass the infamous corporate "bailout" measure, showed the effectiveness of menacing people with violence.</blockquote>If the purpose of the military was to quash dissenters and malcontents, SF would have been nuked many, many years ago.

From Santa Cruz Indymedia:<br /><blockquote>On the night after Columbus Day 2008 we vandalized eleven windows at the Air Force, Army, Navy, and Marine Recruiting Center in Santa Cruz County with a paint and acid mix. <!-- <center><div class="media"></div></center><br /> --> <div class="article">The U.S. government has always waged a war of extermination against land-based ways of life in order to impose capitalist exploitation of the earth and its peoples.<br /><br />For 516 years they and their predecessors have been met with resistance. Neither law enforcement nor the military can ever defeat our struggle.<br /><br />To the land and all indigenous peoples devestated by the U.S. government: we apologize for leaving this building standing.</div></blockquote><div class="article"></div>Wasn't Columbus Day a school night?

Unfortunately, these comments are usually left off an article designed to <a href="http://www.azstarnet.com/metro/262002.php">highlight inter-service support between Navy mothers</a>.
