Huh?

Reminding him that he repaired radios is now belittling him?

Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!

Sauer never does.

Good for him. Does he try to inflate his service by claiming he saved lives
by repairing radios?

If not, good for him.

He is the one trying to inflate his service. I am not
"belittling" him at all, I am reminding him that all he did was
repair radios.

 RC> So Klahn fixed radios eh, well someone had to do it!

Fine, but he's trying to say his repairing radios somehow makes him better
than me. He's even tried to insinuate that he's done more than Stan.

If you have anything else to add, keep it to yourself.
