    You do... but it still doesn't count towards finding the duties. You can quadruple your pushups or do them until Adm. Nimitz is tired.

    Carry on.

    Fleet Admiral of the United States Navy (FADM), or more commonly referred to as Fleet Admiral, is a five-star flag officer rank and is presently considered the highest possible rank in the United States Navy. A special grade of Admiral of the Navy, which ranks above Fleet Admiral, does exist but has only been confirmed once in the history of the Navy. Fleet Admiral ranks immediately above admiral and is equivalent to General of the Army and General of the Air Force; there is no established equivalent five-star rank in the other four uniformed services. The Fleet Admiral rank is reserved for war-time use only and the grade is not currently active in the 21st century military

    Let's add more fun to it. A group of 3 officers are approaching you. You outdoors, not in a working party, are in your Service Charlies and covered. The group of officers consists of one male Marine Captain, one female Marine Captain and one male Navy Captain.

    1) How many salutes are you required to cut.

    2) Who do you greet first? How and why?

    3) If coming up behind this group, what side do you pass them on, if any?

    You earn 20 bends and thrusts for each correct answer.

    An incorrect answer earns you the bends and thrusts as well as 10 Blood n Guts.

    A barf bag and a gallon or two of water are recommended if you want to survive.

    1. Good... it goes without saying that you would wait until they have rendered their salutes before ending yours.

    2. Good job on this one; although a stickler would prefer Good afternoon, ma'am. Good afternoon, gentlemen.

    3. You were doing so well.... Add 10 Blood N Guts to your prescribed PT and get me an answer that isn't unsat.

    As for everyone else, I hope you enjoy your weekend. I'll be back on Sunday or Monday.

    Semper Fi.

    There were two Generals of the Armys ... Pershing and Washington .. Washington is senior among the two. Neither had an 0-11 pay grade and actually Washington was a 2 star.

    Do they still have the "Marine Gunner." He wore a bursting bomb one one side of his collar.

    I don't think it says anything about when they were in service, or if they still are in service.

    Yes, they just replace the CWO insignia on the left collar with the Bursting Bomb insignia.

    Worked for a Marine Gunner Alexander in 1st MarDiv Ordnance. This guy refused to salute 2dLt's at any time and had the General chewing his azz for not doing it. The guy had over 30 years active so I would say he gets a pass.
