He was pushed down some stairs by an another airman who was horseplaying or
bullying him.

He was given the choice to stay in and recover or to take a medical discharge.

He took the latter, which was his choice.

Having said that, he doesnt have any room to talk about the service of
others, especially if those others served full commitments.

A shoplifter has no standing to call a bank robber a thief.

A College dropout has no standing to call a graduate a dummy.

Ross' service got trashed the minute he started trashing the service of
others when his own could not stand up to comparison, ie no full
commitment, furthermore his service got trashed when he tried to embellish
his service, ie tried to say he was a full A-10 weapons mechanic, when he
length of duty past basic could not have supported any of said training.
When you served, you spent 42 days in basic, then you were sent to a tech
school, were you not?

Dont expect anyone to show compassion to Sauer, like Wayne he spent too
much time sharing his biography with everyone else and later he got caught
in a lie.

 BK>  I play by the rules of the echo. Is that your justification? Or

I am certainly not trashing your service, in fact I defended it just the other day.
