I take it that you don't have kids. I also know that I've :

been on more deployments
reported to work earlier
kept my Marines later
worked more weekends
done more field time
missed more Birthdays, XMas's, Thanksgivings etc

then you ever have.

Oh yeah, did I mention I have two kids and have been married since I was a PFC?

Quit yer *****in and expect more from your troops and in turn demand more from yourself.

This is a tangential discussion from another thread. It sounds more like personal business rather than an open discussion.
I thought you should be made aware of the situation. I'm sure there is no personal animosity toward you involved.

Semper Fi!

P.S. Send my best wishes to your young Marine in Iraq.

[VMGRMech]

Look out folks we got us an internet bad ass on deck!

Sgt of Marines who the hell are you to give me advice. Who the hell are you to assume thats you've been on any more deployments than I ever have you ****ing prick. You don't know a thing about me. You want a cookie for deploying and doing what a Marine should. I don't give two ****s how long you've been married unless you've seen this issue from my POV I suggest you STFU

[SSgtOfMarines]

Ya see killer, I have seen it from your POV. I see it everyday. But as a Sgt in the USMC, you don't gripe about the Corps, especially on the ******* internet. You also don't do it where you have potential Marine recruits on deck.

Your initial post wasn't tongue in cheek. Just another Sgt ef'n whining. Ya sound like a damn troop.

You were the one who said people with kids don't do sheat and skate out of everything. I was proving you wrong.

Internet badass? Hardly. Calling you to the carpet? Definately.

Like I tell my troops: Suck it up, or get out.

wow,,, well Sgt E,,, as namgrunt said,, guess this was a contiuation of something that I missed,, so I prolly should've not responded,, but as a retired veteran if it involved the old married troops get special treatment issue,, I'm well aware of that old adage... having been both a single soldier and a married soldier I've been on both sides of the street so to speak,,,

anyway,, there will always be the "perception" that one side has it better....

and Namgrunt ,, thanks for the info,, and my young Marine hasn't left the states yet,, they changed the date AGAIN.... thanks for the support

Glad to hear your son is still within hugging range, Sarge.
I'm sure you'll make the most of that while the opportunity exists. He will make you proud, no doubt about it. When he ships out, let me know so I can add him to my priorities list when talking with the Big Boss.

Semper Fi!

VMGRMech:
Being also from the Air Wing, sometimes it is best to keep our personal remarks and feelings to ourselves. Maybe in Your squadron this may have been the practice. It isn't the Marine Corps Policy to let Married personnel have more liberty then the single personnel. We had to hold our own, remember we wasn't issued a wife. Then I may be talking about the "OLD CORPS". another subject.LOL


SgtOfMarines:
Man from your profile you are not even a Marine. Are you hiding something? Give us some background about yourself. It will help other know where you are comming from, that what the profile is for.

SheWolf:
Jump in anytime, make yourself known, speak your mind, Damn I do, right namgrunt:

david43844:
glad that you kept it simple.

Roger that, Gunny, no doubt about it.

Your son is on my list now, and your daugther will be if and when she goes. Consider it done!

Question:
What Marine would call his men "troops", when they are Marines?
The Army has "troops." No offense intended, just curious.

Been here since this place had two members. But ya busted me Gunny, I'm not a Marine.

Ask any active duty Marine, from the rank of Cpl and up what the refer to the Marines under their charge as.... betcha you hear the word "troop" out of damn near everyone's. But, of course I'm lying. I'm not a Marine

Roger

First lemme apologize for not keeping in touch with ya'll over here. I read every day, just don't post often. Spend most of my time in the "other hooch" But in regards to this thread It's all good bro. Too bad a few of my friends here didn't have the gonads to vouch for me oh well.

Oh, btw, good news. Got the cast off of my hand. The bones aren't dead, and the blood supply is back to normal. They won't have to do surgery. Looks like I'm gonna be able to keep it and stay in the Corps. Guess thats one thing the Iraqi's didn't take from me.... my hand. Just a little blood. Bad enough those fukkers took one of my best friends away from me.

Since the hand was jacked up for so long, they moved me to the Bn Legal section. Been there a few weeks now. As a matter of fact, I sorta like it. It looks like I'm now going to be able to execute those orders back to the School of Infantry in August. The re-enlistment package is a go again. No more med waiver required. Can't wait to teach the younguns a thing or two.

You know where to reach me brother.

Sorry to read of your injury, SgtofMarines, and my condolensces on the loss of a best friend. It always hurts inside when that happens, regardless. If it won't break some trust, could you tell us his name so we could honor his memory as well?

I won't address the comment about asking any active duty Marine above rank of Cpl. I served my time, fought in combat, and was out of the Corps before you were even born, son. Perhaps things have changed, and the term is now commonplace, I just don't recall from my memories. There is no further need to go there, unless another p***ing contest is in the works. I'm not interested in participating in one.

I had read your profile, and saw you said are a Marine. There was no need for sarcasm, son, by stating, "But, of course I'm lying. I'm not a Marine." I've known men who pogoed from the Army and joined the Corps. I was curious if you were one of these, so I asked.

Semper Fi!
