People who say you were in the ARMY.

I just don't think some people really know and/or recognize/understand the difference. I've had a few people say it over the years and I'm quick to correct them; but, they just don't know any better is all I really think.

On a side note, some of the funniest, but most unsat things/people I ever saw in my eight years was at Army Airborne or jump school. Too many funny things to list, but trust me it's just like that movie Stripes (for those of you who are old enough).

I gotta tell you guys , this post site really makes my day sometimes. Theres stuff I havent remembered for years and years,but then Ill read something on here and bamm right to the forefront of the old thinking cap and it all rushs in like yesterday. Back in the day I was working for this aerospace company, I was in QC, we hired this temp for the overload, he was a "new" hippie, since this was late eighties. well everyone in my dept knew well that I was in the corp and damn proud of it with no qualms to silence about telling someone who stepped over the line of respect. So one day were working and this hippie starts going off about how wicked and evil the US is because we start most of the wars and all were good at is bringing death and destrucion to poor innocent couintries who dont want us there anyway but we stick our nose in so we can rape them of their natural resources and ****, I mean on and on and on. Man I had had just about enough of this ****, I walked over to his stool ( no not that kind of stool) his chair, and I let him have a freaking earfull about all I ever hear out of him is his *****ing about the country, well who the hell does he thinks make sure his hippie ass mouth can do that, who does he thinks make sure him and his tree hugger hippie skank can go out and protest about whatever they feel like, and who is it that makes sure hes making a good salary here in the aerospace feild, who the hell does he thinks makes sure he owns his own car, has his own apartment, has the right to go out to his vegetarian dinners on the weekends, man I must have made quite a ruccass cause the nex thing I notice is my boss standing in his office door and everyone else is up out of their chairs and watrching me rail this long hair a new ******* for ****s and giggles, well when I finfihsed he just sat there and looked at me like he was going to cry, I turned around and my boss just smiled and shook his head and went back into his office, everybody else did the same, the next day he quit, never came back and I never heard a word about it. Damn I never felt so good.

Happens all the time for me, too. But the best one was when I was on leave after boot camp.

I got into town late and I was hungry. I went down the street to a 24hr cafe. I was still in my Alpha uniform. Some jerk in the restauant said loudly "Hey, look at the army guy". This woman got up, pointed at me and declared (even louder) "That's no army guy, THAT MAN IS A MARINE!".

Made my day.

These are great recollections, can't wait till I earn the title of U.S Marine and have funny stories like such...

"Never Give Up Never Surrender"...(NGUNS)
