Jfer's got a beef with

Jfer's got a beef with my thoughts on Army black berets, thinking that I was refering to her triathlon. Nothing could be farther from the truth. I think it takes tremendous effort to train and complete a triathlon, and everyone in that race has earned their recognition. I was especially impressed with participants who really were not physically up to a race crossing the finish line. Also, I didn't feel that just because everyone got a medal for participation, the race winner's accomplishment we being dimished in any way.
