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 cannot join, you can still lend a hand. Here
are a few of the areas we would like your assistance
with:

1) The next time you see an adult talking during the
playing of the National Anthem ... kick their ass.

2) When you witness firsthand someone burning the
American Flag in protest ...kick their ass.

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 the
Veteran kicks their ass.

4) If you are not in the military, DO NOT pretend that
you are. Wearing battle dress uniforms (BDU's),
telling others that you used to be "Special Forces,"
and collecting GI Joe memorabilia might have been okay
if you were still seven, but now it will only get your
ass kicked. (Veterans are exempt from this rule)

5) If you witness someone calling an enlisted Marine
"Sir," stand back .. the Marine will kick their ass.

6) 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 ass
kickin (children are exempt).

7) Roseanne Barr's singing of the National Anthem is
not a blooper.  It was a disgrace and disrespectful.
Laugh, and eventually your ass will be kicked.

8) Next time Old Glory prances by during a parade, get
on your damn feet and pay homage to her by placing
your hand over your heart and quietly thank the
military member or veteran lucky enough to be carrying
her ... of course, failure to do either of those will
earn you a severe ass kicking.

9) What Jane Fonda did during the Vietnam War makes
her the enemy. The proper word to describe her is
"traitor".  Hate her or else (asses will be kicked).

10) 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, to include our commander in Chief..
(the President ... for those who didn't know) is all
that we acknowledge. 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.
The military member might direct you to Oliver North.
(I can see him kicking your ass already).

11) "Your mama wears combat boots" never made sense to
me ... stop saying it! If she did, she would most
likely kick your ass!

12)  Bin Laden and the Taliban are not communists, so
stop saying "Let's go kill those Commie's!!!" 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 ass.

13)  Finally yet importantly, 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
troops overseas 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 ass kicked.

Well said! [beer]

However I don't agree with #4 As a citizen/civilian I am a part of the US Militia and I intend on wearing and keeping my Woodland USGI BDU's and PASGT gear thank you. I would kill and die for this country just as hard as any soldier would if the enemy was marching through my neighborhood.

Ok, BDUs' are alright. Just no pretending to be X-special forces.

#14) The next time you see an American  exercising his/her freedom to do anything he/she damn well pleases, mind your own business.

Hold on now.....I like my BDUs.


I look at it this way,we are all Americans so there is no need to pretend.

Anybody who says they are Special Forces and are not is so gay that you should hold a gun on him and force him to kick his own ass.

I do not ask for mighty words
 To leave the crowd impressed;
 But grant my life may ring so true,
 My neighbor may be blessed.
