Someone go get Phantom Mechanic. New NCO's need the complete Leatherneck experience.

Anyway, after a couple of beers, you can add his name to the duty roster.

Here's three sayings thay my crewchiefs hated to hear:

"Let me see if I remember how to do this."
"OOPS!"
"Oh Sh**!"

Remember these, as you may hear your instructors use...

Welcome Back to Texas!

Good Luck in Primary. I hope you have time to enjoy the beach, from sea level instead of 1500'.

Welcome Back, Roger.

I imagine you are on light duty....Miller Lite, Bud Lite, etc,

Happy Birthday Sparrowhawk!

Take the rest of the day off and tomorrow morning if you need it. Enjoy your day!

Sixguns I have to agree with you on the issue of Officer vs Enlisted. Tyro follow your heart. I know a lot of officers that are dumb as a box of rocks that have a piece of paper hanging on the...

Let me preface my comment with this statement: The Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M is like no other. Yes I am biased in this opinion and make no apology for it. With that out of the way, the...

When I went through the program, we had to take the AQT/FAR (Aviation Qualifying Test/Flight Aptitude Rating). I believe it was scored on a scale of 0-7. In order to be considered you had to score...

Thanks to jdfairman and WMjets for taking this post to task.

I would like to help, but any information I give would be outdated (25+ years). I came through the NROTC scholarship program. I was...

Happy Birthday Marine!

May you have many more in the company of friends and family.

As I understand it, and after talking with a local police officer, it refers to the obscured license plate law that has been on the books. The new law gave the local authorities the ability to levy...

Happy Birthday! Put another one in the books. Enjoy your day. Take a meritorious day off!

Glenn

My opinion on this matter is somewhat tainted. Having been through the system as recipient to writer of awards, I am familiar with the mindset of the Corps in regards to awards and medals. The Army...

I love SNCO's and NCO's

cg03 take a step back and gather your thoughts. As many of the fine Marines have posted here, you only have to worry about one MOS...MARINE! Earn that one and everything...

Don't worry about the Gunny. It sounds to me that he is taking the path of least resistance. Sixguns has given you some sage advice. Bottom line is: Do what your heart tells you. ...

Congratulations, Marine.

Now that you've earned the title, continue the hard work to maintain it.

Dragon,

Looks like you are getting quite a group together.

Let me know if you need any Helo trash to get you around.

Thanks Bob. The M14 was the first service rifle that I shot and qualified with.

How About......

Sen. byrd mentioned something about the visit to the carrier would have been an embarassment to Abraham Lincoln. Did he forget that Lincoln went to Gettysburg to make a speech that today is heralded...

I agree, we do need to keep the Apache, but simplify it. It's combat record is not that impressive. The AH1Z is going to be an awesome warfighter! As for the A-10, imagine what it could do in the...

Remember....

Sight Alignment, Sight Picture, Breath, Squeeze!

Damned Slave drivers! They actually expect me to work.

NEWB don't throw away the officer jokes, some of them are pretty good.

Bones - I started flying again, a Schweizer 300. Boy is it...

Welcome Aboard

Glad to have you. Don't forget to stop by the Slop Chute for a cold one.
Finally an OOD.

'Bones, take my name off the list.
