Army to shoot live pigs for medical drill - Yahoo! News

HA HA! Now ask yourself why they didn't use dogs?


The soldier doesn't like the sight of blood! ROTF!

They use pigs because their skin is the most similar to ours, hence giving a more accurate result. Although I see a major flaw in this. Guys who get shot in Iraq and Afghanistan are shot with at LEAST a 7.62, which is what they need to be treating on the pigs. The guys who are hit with 5.56 are victims of fratricide. This is most likely a test on the new chitasin bandages.

Where is "Lardass Murtha" on this. It seems to me, his being a pig himself may hit close to home. Look for him to respond to this similar to what he did to Marines.

"Murtha was born into an Irish-American family in New Martinsville, West Virginia; near the border with Ohio and Pennsylvania, and grew up in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania; a largely suburban county east of Pittsburgh.

As a youth, he became an Eagle Scout. He also worked delivering newspapers and at a gas station before graduating from The Kiski School, an all-male boarding school in Saltsburg, Pennsylvania.

Murtha left Washington and Jefferson College in 1952 to join the Marine Corps and was awarded the American Spirit Honor Medal for displaying outstanding leadership qualities during training. Murtha rose through the ranks to become a drill instructor at Parris Island and was selected for Officer Candidate School at Quantico, Virginia. Murtha was then assigned to the Second Marine Division, Camp Lejeune, North Carolina.

Murtha remained in the Marine Corps Reserves, and ran a small business, Johnstown Minute Car Wash. He also attended the University of Pittsburgh on the G.I. Bill, and received a degree in economics. Murtha later took graduate courses from the Indiana University of Pennsylvania. Murtha married his wife Joyce on 10 June 1955. They have three children and live in Johnstown.

In 1959, Murtha, then a captain, took command of the 34th Special Infantry Company, Marine Corps Reserves, in Johnstown. He remained in the Reserves after his discharge from active duty until he volunteered for service in the Vietnam War, serving from 1966 to 1967, serving as a battalion staff officer (S-2 Intelligence Section), receiving the Bronze Star with Valor device, two Purple Hearts and the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry. He retired from the Reserves as a colonel in 1990, receiving the Navy Distinguished Service Medal."

You want to pump his lard ass? Since when were you pro Marine/military. Your hypocrisy is as glaring as your well known title as "AWE's biggest Dumbass".

Murtha as a Marine should understand meanings to "fighting hole", cover your 6", and "Semper Fi". No Marine worth his weight, and for Murtha this is huge, would ever sell out another Marine, and as a Congressman knows "due process'. In both fronts he has "stunk up the joint" in ways that makes Kerry look like a bonafide hero. I don't know a Marine would would not enjoy giving this "fat moist bastard" an old fashioned Marine Corps "blanket party".


You only like the fat moist lardass because he trashed good Marines. But then you're a dumbass, and dumbasses, love lardasses.

Since when have I been anti-military?

Pointing-out chickenhawk frauds is hardly unpatriotic, shitforbrains.

Murtha devoted the bulk of his life to the Marine corps and service to our country.

That's certainly more than you can say.

THe services Murtha has done was service to Murtha. Ever hear of "Abscam"?

No Murtha is a lardass, and you are a dumbass. Both of you are asses.

You might want to add this to teh bio:

Murtha has repeatedly maintained his innocence in the Abscam sting operation, even as recently as this year. However, his November 20, 1980 testimony in the trial of Congressmen Frank Thompson (D-N.J.) and John Murphy (D-N.Y.) and the FBI's complete undercover video of his January 7, 1980 meeting with its agent and informant reveal a man showcasing his political influence and apparently tempted to take a $50,000 bribe. On the tape, Murtha appears eager to arrange his own, long-term deal with the supposed representatives of Arab sheiks, and to cut out Thompson and Murphy. His testimony reveals that after his January 7 meeting, he looked into helping the sheiks enter the country, rather than contacting the FBI or the Ethics Committee, of which he was a member. Through the years, Murtha has maintained that he only met with the FBI agents to discuss investments in his district. His testimony, the video, and the cases of other congressmen snared in Abscam suggest that "investments in the district" was a common Abscam defense for those accused of bribery.
