WhaT tool do you use to take an oil adapter off a 1993 jEep grandcherokee?

If it is the same as the 90deg adapter as on the 97 Grand Cherokee, you will need a short, male torx that fits on a socket driver. It has to be short because the adapter is so close to the inside of the tire well.

If you are removing it because it is leaking oil, you can buy the o-ring set from a dealer for about $10.00. Change the whole set - not just the one that is leaking.

Does the Navy have Police?

Yes - in addition to the formal Master-at-Arms rate (one of the original 3 created in the Navy), each afloat command will typically provide senior sailors to act as Shore Patrol members while on liberty in some foreign ports.

For larger vessels (Carriers, e.g.), in addition to MA's, there is usually a contingent of Marines stationed aboard for higher security. Marines also guard higher security Navy bases.

Have any Navy SEAL's been killed in action in 2009?

Upon reviewing online casualty lists from both Iraq and Afghanistan, to date (August 14, 2009) there have been no SEAL's apparently KIA this year. The worst SEAL losses were likely in 2005, when several members of SEAL Team 10 were KIA when their helo was shot down while attempting to reinforce a SEAL recon team under fire.

However, it's important to keep in mind that most SEAL missions are highly classified, and in many cases casualties aren't reported publicly until the mission is over and the members debriefed, and the family notified. So it's entirely possible there may be an unknown number of SEAL casualties we may not know about yet.

Does a navy person who received a less than honorable discharge still receive a flag?

Yes, but not for members with Bad Conduct/Dishonorable.

Members with and OTH (Other Than Honorable Discharges) are still eligible and can receive a burial flag. There are no laws that prevent someone from purchasing and draping a casket with a flag however one will not be provided military honors by the guard to fold and present it to the next of kin if you have a dishonorable discharge. You must have at least an Honorable or OTH discharge.

Who ranks higher captain or comandor?

Commander is a rank exclusive to the Navy. It is the equivalent of an Army/Air Force/Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel (O5). A Navy Captain is equivalent to an Army/Air Force/Marine Corps Colonel (O6), whereas a Captain in the Army, Air Force, or Marine Corps is O3. A Navy Captain outranks a Commander, but a Commander outranks an Army, Air Force, or Marine Corps Captain.

Is discharge bad?

No, it is a perfectly normal process for girls and women, mainly girls are worried about it, and they are going through puberty. It's normal, don't worry. It usually means that you're getting ready for your period. It should be white-ish and shouldn't make you itch. I started getting discharge at age 11, and then at age 12 I had my first period. Hope this helps. xx

How do you find out fake navy seals?

Real SEAL's are very quiet concerning the work they do; if you don't know them very well, you'd never know they were SEAL's to begin with. They never brag or draw attention to the fact that they are part of an elite unit.

Fakes on the other hand typically will brag that they either are SEAL's, or used to be. One way to call them is to ask for their challenge coin - no real SEAL would be caught dead without one.

How much does a retired Navy Commander earn?

There is no set limit - it depends entirely on the year of separation, years of service, type of separation, COLA adjustments, and many other factors, including disability, POW status, etc. There are so many factors that there's no way to determine the pay for any given retired Naval Commander. Even an active duty Commander's pay isn't easy to determine, since it depends also on service time and other factors, such as sea pay, hazardous duty pay, dependents, housing, etc.

Where is Lt William Callie?

A Vietnam veteran, Ronald Ridenhour, threatened to reveal what he had been told about My Lai. This forced the United States Army to conduct an investigation into the incident. The official inquiry resulted in the court martial of only Lt. Calley. The Army did take steps to prosecute others involved in My Lai. About two dozen men were charged, including Captain Medina, but Calley was the only one convicted. On 29 March 1971, Calley was convicted of the premeditated murder of 22 civilians. (He had been accused of killing 109) He was sentenced to life in prison at hard labor. President Nixon intervened on Calley's behalf and ordered him to serve his sentence under house arrest. Various appeals brought his sentence down to 20 and then 10 years. Calley was released after serving three and one half years under house arrest, most of the time served at his apartment in Fort Benning, during which time he was allowed visits by his girlfriend. Many felt (feel) he was the scape-goat for My Lai. From the information I can find on the net, at sites like Find Law.com, William Calley is currently living in Ohio, is 63 or 64 years old, and working as a jeweler. MrV
