Re: [Re: DoD manipulates figures]

October 15, 1999

I am new to the list and I'm not really good and writing or putting my thouths

down on paper,

I have been in the military for 10 years (7 yrs in the Army Guard and 3 yrs in

the Air Guard) I have always loved the military from the time I was old

enought to remember, and like everybody else I would gladly die for my God, my

country, my family and my beliefs, but I can not see taking an untried,

unproven vaccine that has the potential to harm my family.

I am not a conspircy nut or anything, but if you were the UN and you wanted to

take over a country with out fireing a shot how would you do it?? By

disableing the military!! And to do this you need to lie about the numbers

until it is to late.
