Nerdy thank you for your service and your sacrifices.
I have only seen the documentaries on what happened there and I can only say that I am quite glad you are here.
Tracey, you may need to reassess your use of the term 'functional'
I believe you meant no harm with your insensitive statement, I chalk it up to your youth.
I do not personally know Nerdy, nor do I know the extent of any service related injuries, so I would never make a public statement asking if 'it' works or allude that the males on the board must have a fully functional penis.
With the number of veterans and disabled veterans on the board the probability that some have taken trauma to the groin area is quite high. Additionally, the fact of age, medication or chronic disease makes obtaining and maintaining an erection difficult, but that does not lessen the desire to still have sex in any form still possible.
Nerdy, again I thank you for your service and your sacrifices. You and your teammates have served with honor.
Thank you Doglegg. I do apologize- it was a momentous anniversary for me, and as a single man with few friends, I had no where else to make the announcement, and to be frank I was a little inebriated.
As for functionality? It works all too well. I lost 25% of feeling in my groin and right leg. Most ladies either compliment or complain about my stamina. Feels great to me! I will say I have probably faked more orgasms than most ladies.
I also lost a really good friend that day. I spent more of last night thinking about him.
Brother Nerdy... know your unit well... and have many Gunship buddies who would have busted nuts (no pun intended) to be there for you, but... they were prevented by a certain POTUS from being there with y'all!
And thankfully, we had a smaller Task Force there! NSDQ!
....it's good to remember our brothers, because others can't understand...
Thanks for your service as well Nery. Im a fellow serviceman was off the Samali coast onboard USS Belleau Wood LHA3. Corpsman who treated many Marines and solders also did my time with 3rd Marines and 1st Marine Airwing.
Lost a few friends as well .... lost but not forgotten. So drink up bro we earned it.
