You seem to have jumped the gun, so to speak, on DA's authorization to paint your piece.
Since I am no longer responsible for enforcing discipline, I approve. Is your M203 held on with 550 cord? or is this some high-speed, low-drag thing you young whippersnappers cooked up after I retired? |

It's pretty much army wide policy to have every sensitive item strapped to your weapon so you can lose them all at once. |

I just want to know why Blacktide has his sight with the stateside training block still in place (The little blue tab in the center)....How are you supposed to give Habibi free Lasik that way? It's not, it's hard to tell in that pic but what you're seeing may be the little blue paint markings. PEQ-2 btw. Rocking a PEQ 15 now ohhhh yeah. |

"Oh, don't worry, SFC Drang, everything will be all right." Filled me with confidence. So I go off to the initial planning meeting at S3, and as they go around the room introducing everyone they get to me and I say "I'm SFC Drang, I'm an MI Geek, and I know dick about door gunnery, am I really qualified to be RSO? BTW, my Range Card isn't stamped 'gunnery'." The S3 is all and and "We'll deal with this later", until they get to the part where they're talking about the "Mark 1 Aiming Device" for the night fire and I finally interrupt and say "English, please! WTF a Mark 1 Aiming Device?" and they realize that I really am not qualified to do the job. I guess they figured I was afraid of machine guns, or just lazy, maybe I had too many flight hours and didn't want to fly, something. Fly boys are stoopid. |

The family and I were in Bremerton waiting for the ferry back to Seattle so decided to hit Coldstone Creamery for some ice cream. A friendly Staff SGT in full uniform was standing in front of us and my 4 yr old son was completely enamored. I told my son to say "thank you for your service," which he did. The SGT promptly responded with a "thank you for allowing me to serve, young man!" My son was absolutely thrilled. Even more so when he told my son he drove tanks for a living! My son had to be pulled away so the nice SGT could finally eat his now melting ice cream. You couldn't ask for better role models for young children, which in turn create a level of respect young people have later on in life for our fine men and women in uniform.
Gentlemen and women, thank you for your service! |

I'd have stayed much longer, but God threw a nasty case of bone cancer down my way, and it was non-compatible with the Marine SOP. By the time I had beat it, I was fat, and Bravo Co. was gracing the cover of Soldier of Fortune magazine with the highest kill ratio in Gulf War I. I'd love to go back and do it all again. I still love tanks! |
