FROM HOMELAND SECURITY, WE NOW HAVE SOME EASY TO FOLLOW CIVILIAN
RULES OF CONDUCT.
>
> Military Rules for Non-Military Personnel
> "Dear Civilians, "We know that the current state of affairs in our
great nation have many civilians up in arms and excited to join the
military. For those of you who can't join, you can still lend a hand. Here
are a few of the areas where we would like your assistance:
>
> (1) The next time you see an adult talking (or wearing a hat) during
the playing of the National Anthem---kick their ***.
>
> (2) When you witness, firsthand, someone burning the American Flag in
protest---kick their ***.
>
> (3) Regardless of the rank they held while they served, pay the
highest amount of respect to all veterans. If you see anyone doing
otherwise, quietly pull them aside and explain how these veterans fought for the
very freedom they bask in every second. Enlighten them on the many
sacrifices these veterans made to make this Nation great. Then hold them
down while a disabled veteran kicks their ***.
>
>
> (4) (GUYS) If you were never in the military, DO NOT pretend that you
were. Wearing battle dress uniforms (BDUs), telling others that you
used to be "Special Forces," and collecting GI Joe memorabilia, might have
been okay when you were seven years old. Now, it will only make you
look stupid and get your *** kicked.
>
> (5) Next time you come across an Air Force member, do not ask them,
"Do you fly a jet?" Not everyone in the Air Force is a pilot. Such
ignorance deserves an ***-kicking (children are exempt).
>
> (6) If you witness someone calling the US Coast Guard 'non-military',
inform them of their mistake---and kick their ***.
>
> (7) Next time Old Glory (the US flag) prances by during a parade, get
on your damn feet and pay homage to her by placing your hand over your
heart.
>
> Quietly thank the military member or veteran lucky enough to be
carrying her---of course, failure to do either of those could earn you a
severe ***-kicking.
>
>
> (8) Don't try to discuss politics with a military member or a
veteran.. We are Americans, and we all bleed the same, regardless of our party
affiliation. Our Chain of Command is to include our Commander-In-Chief
(CinC). The President (for those who didn't know) is our CinC
regardless of political party. We have no inside track on what happens inside
those big important buildings where all those representatives meet. All
we know is that when those civilian representatives screw up the
situation, they call upon the military to go straighten it out. If you keep
asking us the same stupid questions repeatedly, you will get your ***
kicked!
>
> (9) 'Your mama wears combat boots' never made sense to me---stop
saying it! If she did, she would most likely be a vet and therefore, could
kick your ***!
>
> (10) Bin Laden and the Taliban are not Communists, so stop saying
'Let's go kill those Commies!' And stop asking us where he is! Crystal
balls are not standard issue in the military. That reminds me---if you see
anyone calling those damn psychic phone numbers, let me know, so I can
go kick their ***.
>
> (11) 'Flyboy' (Air Force), 'Jarhead' (Marines), 'Grunt' (Army),
'Squid' (Navy), 'Puddle Jumpers' (Coast Guard), etc., are terms of
endearment we use describing each other. Unless you are a service member or
vet, you have not earned the right to use them. That could get your ***
kicked.
>
> (12) Last, but not least, whether or not you become a member of the
military, support our troops and their families. Every Thanksgiving and
religious holiday that you enjoy with family and friends, please
remember that there are literally thousands of sailors and troops far from
home wishing they could be with their families. Thank God for our
military and the sacrifices they make every day. Without them, our country
would get its *** kicked."
>
> "It is the soldier, not the reporter who has given us the freedom of
the press."
>
> "It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of
speech."
>
> "It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who gives us the
freedom to demonstrate."
>
> "It is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag,
and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to
burn the flag."
>
>
> (Please pass this on so I won't have to kick your ***!) :-)
>
> "If you can read this, thank a teacher"
>
> "If you are reading it in English, thank a veteran."
