I want to report that putting all the "comments" and "questions" in the guest book, is not what it's for, I have a Forum for this, I will put what I wrote in reply to everyone here, and a link to the Forum so that I don't have to cut and paste my life away. I want to respond to the comments and questions on the same page, and give ANYONE a chance to respond, that includes the people who run PTRP and the people in PTRP. Use the bravenet gif to put in your reply, I will do my best to line all this up.
 
What I wrote in reply is gone,in my effort to reply to the next sets of comments it got erased, my falt. It looked like my Integrity was being tested, I wrote a "Shame on you" to the Capt. but he was not pointing at me, and now you can read my reply to the guest book entered on March 14.
PFC "SKI":
First off i'm glad Sir that your remark was not aimed at myself, I have no reason to Lie about what I went and did, however when I was in, like I state at the bottom of the page it was very different. I really hope that your the same LT I know at the FLW because you helped. Do you remember PFC Alcus,Donald from Manchester NH hard accent late 20s stockie guy and Anderson with his rotor cuff , it was 2000 in the late summer, I started going to rehab with Alkus from PTRP, if you are the same LT Fisher you will remember at least one of these guys and the damage they had, if so please write into the forum about it so I can have a more open talk with you.As for me I ended up spending the longest time of any PTRP PVT. at the time, if you have a clue of who they were you will know who I am.
As for you SSG JOHNSON you will be happy to know that I do have "information" from "to many to ignore" Army soldier and trainees from 2000 up from all ARMY PTRP units. The information in the guest book alone would warrent action alone, if you don't think so look at it again! It's only the fact that PTRP has changed and my 1st Army value that I have not sent "information" to the correct people! The only reason I have the "information" is because SOME NCOs toss out the 2nd 3rd and 6th Army Values and-or just plane "have a bad day" and find "ways" to take it out on the trainees.It's the few who are in the NCO ranks that do wrongs and place the hate seed for PTRP. As well as I know about the bad SGTs I know about the bad PVTs.The bad PVTs were in, and some lied, and they got nothing, however an X-ray does not lie, an MRI does not lie. Pure Hate was dished out at times, not military training, I know the differance because of my extended time "down range". NOBODY is watching a lone NCO that has to work on a SUNDAY. You know what, at one point in Aug. 2000 one of the NCOs started putting us in formation on Sundays, for no reason, for hours, in the sun, no head gear, I have dark patches were I was burned with blisters from the sun, the next day I really thought that was it for me, takeing a shower was pure hell,nobody said a dam thing about getting burned, or asked questions on why we were burned.Things got worse, after doing 2 fireguards a night people started going AWOL during Fireguard. Check the records,88Ms Chems, MPs in AIT takeing off, even two 12-Bs. Check the records, do you think those many people would just get up and go because the they mis MAMA? It was real and it happened all you have to do is look it up SSG JOHNSON!
SSG JOHNSON, answer me this I seen a Soldier with screws in his leg gets a choice of either doing "front, back, gos" that will take weeks off his recovery or a "Article 15",he took the Article 15 so he can get out of PTRP. I know what your saying SSG JOHNSON "his profile" well Major Sides did write the profile to the point that he could run limited distance but it did not say he could not do "Front, Back, Gos" it was a common sense call for the SGTs, even tho he could do limited running it didnt say he could not do Front Back Gos, and going by the book the SGTs would play a good hand. He never got the A15 because he got Major Sides to call our CO. Yes SSG JOHNSON I know the "RAINDEER GAMES" It's to easy to get around a profile.
SSG JOHNSON, I know how people try to beat the book, lessons learned working as a Loss Prevention Detective, going to court and teaching loss prevention to some City of Erie PA Police. This is the kinda shit I seen SSG JOHNSON, check on how many "broken" PVTs in PTRP and PVTs still with their Companys on FLW got leave just before 20/20 came for a report in 2000. I have a full bag.
SSG JOHNSON, As for my Top, he showed me the report ending in 2000, he wanted me to be part of the few who made it out, after the full range of damage to me was found out he never forgot to bring me a "USA Today" while I was in the Hospital. If you think I made that up thats fine, I know the truth and my First SGT and so does PVT Crawly (Louisiana Crawly not Wisconsin Crawly), I think he came to see me just for the paper. As for the report, i'm sure that he would have not let me walk away with it, facts are facts, I had no reason to think any different about the %,why would I lie about real facts? Why don't you take a look? while your at it, look for AWOLs and people killing themselfs. I'm not sure why you think everyone is lieing? If I wanted to lie about things they would have been better lies, and the page would have been filled with them, or is that what you think? Whats written in the guest book are not lies, I was in with some of them, and seen it, and some are still in the Army!
SSG JOHNSON:
"I know you say what about the legit Medboards yes the "really hurt pvts that jump off the top of their bunks and brake dance and run for chow that are so hurt they cant hardly move"
Clearly if you think this you should not be working at PTRP.Tell me what action a soldier "deserves" to get PTRP?Do you think the Army does'nt hurt you, it's your action in the Army that hurts you, like if you fall and get hurt you should not get PTRP but a bus ticket home? If I miss read this please clear this up.
SSG JOHNSON:
"1. The pvt is simply not ready to be away from MAMA. 2. The pvt doesnt have a lick of drive thats right imagin that a pvt who just doesnt want to work for anything. 3. The pvt is a legitamate injury that cannot be fixed or helped. 4. The pvt had the injury prior to coming into the army and is looking for a free fix. The list goes on and on."
Anyone reading this sees your hate, funny #3 is not your first written down. So I truly hurt soldier has a 1 and 4+ chance in your book to be treated correctly by you? Do you really think somebody would join the Army to get something fixed? Come on get real, don't put on a show for the nonmilitary people reading this!
SSG JOHNSON:
"Next you dog out a man that put his heart and soul into his job. A man that was overwhelmed with hurt pvts. Its easy to judge a man until you have walked a mile in his combat boots."
What did you read? I stated that I was not lieing, the Capt. seemed to be placeing blame on me, and when he wrote in again he cleared it up.
SSG JOHNSON, You have no idea what kind of mail I get because of this web-page! The people who write besides the PVTs are Parents, Wifes, Husbands, Sisters, Brothers, Aunts, Grandfathers the whole 9 yards!
You have my word as a "Did Basic twice" as a OSUT 12-B, Promoted before going on TRDL, HONORABLY discharged,held a job at building 470 getting my TRADOC patch, Retired from the Army without challangeing the med board, entering as a E1 leaveing as a E3 "RA" Soldier,No A15's, that I have allways told the person who writes to get them to "STAY IN"! Do this, write the woman who's in the guestbook about her daughter and ask her what I wrote, go down the list and ask them all, don't even try putting me on the ropes!
SSG JOHNSON, Only one thing hurt in the ARY and it wasn't the crushed nerves turning into "RSD" (A good soldier checks his barrel before he fires his weapon, SSG JOHNSON, i'm 100% sure I know more about what happened to me and about RSD then you do!I hav'nt told you the mechanism of the damage to myself, how can you conclude?), the ordered 3 hour formations in MO summer sun without head gear in PTRP, it was leaving the Army that hurt.After all the training ,testing and rehab, training twice,holding a real job, I had to go and recive my Flag, I lost, I fought hard and lost because of a "poor choice of a Drill SGT" I went to every doctor I could in the Army trying to stay in, months in FLW hospital with every LT to full bird pokeing and prodding, and I would have reuped again if they said they could fix me and send me to do my job. I even got bit by a brown lacrouse spyder and allmost lost my leg from the knee down.
This web-page still is a place to find old friends, not a PTRP BASHING site and if people want to bitch about what happened "let them" let them be judged by who reads it!
As a side note, I was thought to be a faker for a short time, my damage really did'nt show up in a X ray or MRI, think about that next time you dought somebody, blackballed by trainees or not.
You don't know a 1/4 of my time in, as a report came out about "why I was in so long" I was ordered to goto JAG,I did not do what JAG said I should do to the Army. I had alot of brass look into why I got hurt. I did the old school soldier thing and placed no blame, even tho they had all the facts and names, this also gos for PTRP. I really thought it was different, but I may have been wrong.
I await your reply!
It should also be noted that the day after I wrote this reply I got a letter from yahoo, it seems somebody was drawing alot of bandwidth to the login area in my name, yahoo thinks it was somebody trying to get in or block a login. I have the control number given to me by yahoo if you think I'm lieing, I would also like to add that I have disabled the "vote polls" seems that 2 people have beeen trying to leave a bad feedback string over and over. How do you know only 2 people? I have the ISP address.
