Huntarr Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 ALL RIGHT MAGGOTS NOW LISTEN UP! There’s some scuttlebutt floatin ‘round here like the smell out of a Navy chow hall’s head (that’s LA-trine for you Army pukes). There’s talk of Hard Chargin Marines going feet wet. Something about the Army having issues with Iraq’s neighbor. You know who they call when they need someone to knock on the front door while they pull one those fancy “Maneuver Warfare” jobs. So start getting your trash squared away cause we are not about to miss out on this one. OoHRah Get back up to speed on some of the trash the good taxpayers have been so kind enough to let you borrow. http://www.flickr.com/photos/huntarr/collections/ Now remember just because you saw some whizbang gizmo on some silly ass Squidie TV show (yeah Mack that’s you) doesn’t mean your gonna get to break it. You know how tight the Navy is with our money. Carry on… SITREP to follow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Kettler Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Huntarr, Love the ones with the sand fleas (still remember the Jack Webb diatribe in the movie where he was a Parris Island D.I. teaching field discipline and some recruit swatted a sand flea) and the ATM. Dad was in the Navy during the Korean War, and his dings were on the shins from high hatch coamings. Talking bone dents! I know the military uses some peculiar spellings, as in "aline" for "align," but shouldn;t the last one read "rapelling," rather than as shown? Oh, and my brother, who was in the Army and has now, happily, retired limbs intact (80% service related disability rating, though:ears, back, knees, respiratory, etc.)despite multiple brushes with death, hated recruiting. Mom was the Marine in our family. SSGT (Communications) FMFPAC, Pearl Harbor. Dad was ET1 and met Mom while also assigned there at Pearl doing radar maintenance (gapped WW II radar transmitters with a matchbook cover once) after a tour on the U.S.S. Passig, a fleet distiller.

Passig, a fleet distiller. I'm sure it has to do with potable water or something, but seeing the phrase "fleet distiller" just warms my beery heart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purpheart23 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 "Recruiting is just about the worst job in the military." Amen to that. Let's just not restrict it to the military though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chainsaw Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Huntarr, whats up with that "irish pennant" thing? US marines have a hate for Irish or whats with it? (im swedish so not to much into rituals and stuff of the US forces) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntarr Posted August 12, 2008 Author Share Posted August 12, 2008 The following is a dramatization. For the satirically impaired this a joke.... Huntarr, whats up with that "irish pennant" thing? Who said that? Who the f*&$ said that? Who's the slimy little communist s$^&, twinkle-toe down here who just signed his own death warrant? Nobody, huh? The fairy frickin godmother said it. Out-fricking-standing! I will PT you all until you frickin die! I'll PT you until your aholes are sucking buttermilk! US marines have a hate for Irish or whats with it? (im swedish so not to much into rituals and stuff of the US forces) Well, no s***. What have we got here, a f***ing comedian? Private Chainsaw. I admire your honesty. Hell, I like you, you can come over to my house and f*** my sister! LOL, I'm glad you asked Chainsaw. No, My Beloved Corps has given many-a Devil Dog this unfortunate neurosis… Irish Pennant A string hanging randomly from a Marine’s uniform. Longer ones are sometimes called rappelling ropes or cables. A squared away Marine will be free of Irish pennants, particularly at an inspection. They can be removed by using a lighter and burning the offending thread from the uniform but that has the unfortunate effort of burning the image into the mind of the offending Marine. The Corps does not discriminate against any culture, they want to travel to exotic foreign countries, meet interesting and stimulating people of an ancient culture... and kill them.:eek: Thanks Chainsaw for playing along. That was a good question. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
