Quoted: Quoted: dude that lost his rifle got lucky as hell I got a kick out of the sgt. walking through them all, casually picking up rifles as he went. Oh, no, not lost it like that. Lost it as in dropped it or it fell off his ruck when he was walking down a dirt road at O'dark thirty without a light. He realized he dropped it said, "I'm sooo fucked" and turned his flashlight on and went running back. Dude found it. Lucky bastard should have bought himself a lottery ticket. LOL |

Quoted: Shit guess I missed it. A teacher of mine was a Green Beret. He is without a doubt the toughest mother fucker I've ever seen. |

Quoted:
A teacher of mine was a Green Beret. He is without a doubt the toughest mother fucker I've ever seen. My best friend was one, now a cop. He is one of the most mild-mannered, laid back guys I've ever known; Mr. Average. Blows my mind he went through that and more. Same deal. A guy who I flew with at TWA retired as a Major then got into flying (apparently, the Green Beret's don't abuse you enough...  ). Nicest, laid back guy. He had a great, self-deprecating sense of humor.
He's had a tough go in the airlines since 9/11––had a couple shot out from under him. I hope he makes out in the end. TC P.S.––Has anyone seen my puke? I thought it was right here in my pocket.

Quoted:
Bartender at the local Ruby Tuesday's was a 2nd Batt Ranger that went to Q School. Said it was the hardest damn thing he's ever done in his life. This is what I hear about the Dive school at Panama City, FL. SEALs, Rangers, Recon, and Green Berets have told me it was the hardest school they ever attended. The Navy Corpsmen attached to Marine Recon have the toughest course at that school. |
