seriously, here folks. Little stewardess asks me "Or what?" I respond "I dunno. What, am I gonna hijack the plane?" As in, there's nothing I can do. I don't know what the hell she heard. Where's the threat in that question? She knows I'm a "F"ing soldier and that I've devoted my life to serving her and the other assorted pieces of slack-ass **** that call themselves citizens of this country, and that I'm on leave from fighting terrorism. WHERE DO YOU READ A THREAT TO HIJACK THE PLANE? And, what kind of so-called officer decides to punish a bunch of unconnected strangers, who have no idea of what the hell is going on, for his mis-conceptions of one man's wrong-doing? A chinese fishing vessel. JUNK.

PS. Jason, I wasn't going off on you, dude, not at all. There's no anger or hostility in any of these posts of mine directed at any of my brethren. Oh, and I'm a Master Corporal, not a Sergeant. In the Canadian Forces, "Sergeant" is a senior NCO.

I personally think the stewardess just wanted PC to herself and was trying to keep him from getting back to his wife.

Yea! You were crapped on by some unreasonable, paranoid people. [thdn][thdn]

The fact is, if you saw your best friend Jack Smith in the airport and yelled out "Hi Jack!!". You would have went through the same thing.

Verboten words . . . "Bomb" "Hijack" "Kill the Crew" "C-4" "I have special shoes" etc., etc., spoken in jest or error will probably at the minimum get you tied up for longer than you want and at the worst case, locked up.[ziplip][ziplip][ziplip]

A delayed welcome back. [][thup] Hope you kept the names of some of the Airport Security and/or LE to give to your CO and that the CO is willing to call and hear a supporting version of your sad tale. Hope the rest of your stay is either uneventful or the best time of your life.[][][][][]
