Unhappycamper appreciation thread-we are so lucky to have him here.
Edited on Tue Oct-12-10 06:45 AM by w8liftinglady
unhappycamper has worked tirelessly for years to keep us informed on the things going on in the DoD,the wars and the politics behind all of it.He has offered a wealth of thoroughly researched information,which is critical when we go up against the Tea Party "keyboard brigade".

A personal note:He has also been a true,unwavering friend to me through all my son's -and my-issues.I will always be eternally grateful for his friendship and information.he keeps me motivated to keep speaking out.

peace.
Beth

4. Second that motion. KNR.
Thanks for the often fascinating glimpses behind the "iron curtain" of DoD procurement and subculture. Adds a great deal to the value of reading DU.

I salute you, unhappycamper!

9. unhappycamper is TOPS!
The guy's pegged the owners and operators of the military-industrial complex for the warmongers they are, a true patriot.

22. He documents more waste and fraud of the Defense Dept
than any place on the web over the years

I said he should write a book or put it on his own website
I always look for his posts.

56. I can't begin to say how much I've benefited from Unhappycamper
His posts keep me informed and as a veteran, son and grandson of veterans and the father and grandfather of 1 vet son and 1 active duty son and 1 grandson, it is just the best. (sorry for the run on sentence)

I'm glad I am not too late to :kick: it.

Being the caregiver of a disabled veteran and in constant need of information and news, unhappycamper's threads are a godsend.

I'll :beer: to that.
