      Me too. Haven't been there since I was a child, but Montana is definitely at the top of my list for states to retire to. Born and raised in Orange County California. Lived here all my life, but am so disappointed in our state government. Soft on crime, tax on everything and cost of living through the roof. I'm retiring in seven years with a nice retirement, but living here, money won't stretch as far so I'm outta here Fall of 2031.

    I was a naval aviator for 15 years, and had a run in where someone had to immediately justify a decision that was made from the top in a weird and intrusive way. I was going through an advanced SERE training in Spokane, WA, but had already been through normal SERE 7 eight years earlier. Subsequently, I'd done an sea tour and a shore tour and was joining a special projects squadron that had higher SERE requirements.
    It was the day Bergdahl was released from the Taliban. I actually didn't know that it had happened, and just got out of bed, and went to class. All the students are in the theater and one of the instructors storms in. He was the only Navy instructor, and was generally a pretty chill and jolly guy, to the degree a SERE instructor behaves this way. That day he starts off by ripping into us. Telling us we have no idea what goes on to recover POWs and that if we had "preconceived" notions, we were naive. So the whole class is looking at this guy, trying to figure out what he was going on about. Previously, his lessons were friendly in nature and had a lot of jokes, but his attitude was 180 degrees off (after this, he went back to his normal personality). Then he said how the president negotiated a prisoner exchange to get Bergdahl back, and to think the US policy was anything other than this, was stupid (oceania has always been at war with east asia vibes).
    A lot of the guys in the class were very junior, not even qualified in their platforms yet, and pretty intimidated. Additionally the instructor said there'd be no questions, but I was the second ranking member of the group, the highest ranking Navy student, a recent combat veteran of Iraq, so I felt enough moxy to stand up and ask one. I told him that when I went to standard SERE eight years ago they told me the US government would never negotiate for a POW release unless it was unilateral from the other side with no caveats. They wouldn't pay ransoms. They wouldn't trade prisoners. They'd do everything they could to get us out, but if never give into demands. One reason is that it will encourage taking prisoners rather than say, leave a wounded enemy on the battlefield for us to pick up. Another is the enemy could always use it as propaganda against us that our government was doing nothing to get us out, because they weren't meeting their demands. And that many men survived hellish conditions for years in Korea and Vietnam, and kept the faith. I told the instructor this, and he didn't even answer, just glared at me and stormed out of the room. Strangely, that same day he was very nice to me, like more so than usual. I would bet that he was made to give this speech, and didn't believe it himself (how could he...).
    After he left, I asked the rest of the class, who mostly just finished SERE, if they were told what I was told, and, of course, they had. I told them, not to listen to that day's outburst, and assume the policy was the same as before. Everyone agreed, and the instructors went about the rest of the day as if nothing happened. It was such an Orwellian experience, and not the only, or worst, time in my career. I just thought I'd share based on the ass covering email to the SEALs after the pride month post.
    PS - When I was in high school track, during the cross country season, I'd only eat a cup or rice and a can of tuna, and some onions slices, and I was in amazing shape. I am a believer in the rice and tuna diet!

    • @procram

      Regarding your PS, I did that too in college (tuna and rice, not cross country) to stay in shape and someone I knew got mercury poisoning on the same diet and I switched to chicken breasts. They're more expensive but mercury poisoning looked very painful.

    • @LesWhinen
      @LesWhinen 4 месяца назад

      @@procram That was too expensive for me growing up. Another factor was you didn't need to prepare the tuna. So you could cook enough rice for a day or two, and not have to do anything else. I got lucky though with the mercury poisoning, because I ate so much tuna.

      @JR-ju3kj 4 месяца назад +1

      @@BostonsF1nest I saw that interview! It was pretty good! I liked that Andy wasn't star-struck by interviewing Kevin Costner. I'm the same way with how I see celebrities and in that I also don't get star-struck. Celebrities and public figures are still just people like the rest of us. And I couldn't agree with Andy more on what he said about Al Pacino fathering a kid at 83. I've said the same thing about it, too. It's Pacino's life but it isn't just about him with him fathering a child at that age, it's also about the child, too so when you look at it in that respect, I do think that it's irresponsible and reckless because the odds of Pacino being around by the time this kid is even 10, never mind 18, aren't good. If he had the kid in his fifties, like how Sylvester Stallone fathered all of his daughters( who are all now young adults doing well in their twenties) in his fifties, the odds are still at least decent that he could be around by the time the kid's in his twenties or thirties or even forties- so he could still be around long enough to see the kid become an adult and to make an impact on the child.
      I'm in my forties and fairly healthy and I don't have any children yet but fathering a kid in my forties or fifties IF I feel like I was in the right position to do it and that it's reasonable to assume that I'd be around long enough to see them grow up and become adults( even young adults), is something that I would do. But I would never want to become a father in my sixties( like Clint Eastwood and Warren Beatty) or seventies or eighties. Pacino's an acting legend but I agree with some of the people who have been calling him a dirty/ horny old man( and I hear that Pacino's health isn't all that great these days, either).
