"Don't drink and drive, PT formation 0530 Monday, Have fun!"
The briefings in Germany were a bit better:
"If you get in a fight, win. Don't get caught by the Polizei, there's no police brutality here, they have submachine guns, and those spring-loaded batons of theirs hurt bad."
you win! LOLOL!!!
...and don’t forget to take the M57 Firing Device with you down range when you set it up...
Your battle buddy just may be the lowest common denominator in your squad.
i think post#23 might be that lowest common denominator
Kinda looks that way. Like a walking buckshot bomb.
Impressive edit. Hard to beat the original.
oh yeah... TADSLOS won.
Dumbest ever “Don’t ask Don’t tell”
Basically said “LIE”
Same here: plain. It was the Guard, but we were a spit-and-polish MOS and unit. The commander spoke it to the platoons at the end of last formation after each drill and FTX before dismissal.
Wrap it before you tap it
We had to brief our comm team not to sun yourself on the top of the sitcom trailer (next to the microwave transmitter).
Found a new A1C sunning himself on top of the trailer while the transmitter was active. We saw him and pulled his dumb ass unceremoniously down. He already had a sunburn and not from the sun.
We scared the snot out of him telling him he had cooked the swimmers in his nads.
“Lord loves a working man, Don’t trust Whitey, See a doctor and get rid of it.”
Our version of that was on a klaxon alert don’t pull the alert vehicle up behind the aircraft in the event it will be a quickstart.
Year?
When I was in the Marines we had a kid who was working on his third case of the drip. He knew he would get NJP and a reduction in rank so he tried to hide it. Caught him coming out of the shower and his nads were badly swollen, black and blue.
Told him to get his ass down to the clinic and I had him escorted.
The Navy doc knew him from past bouts walked into the exam room, sighed, told him to drop his drawers. The doc stared at him silently, then sighed again and told him, son, you waited too long and those are going to have to come off.
The kid let out a groan and passed out. The doctor laughed and told the corpsman that he hoped that would scare him enough not to repeat again.
My roommate on my first ship was a Corpsman told me about a patient that we had to medivac off the ship on our previous deployment ...
Basically 1/2 the guys manhood was dead and black and to save the guys life he just broke out some scissors and went to work and stopped cutting when the guy started screaming. Patient made E1 the day of his flight off the ship (he was an E5 just before the flight)
He lost a Lot that week
I am of the opinion that there is no innate knowledge of “common sense”. Everything is learned. Of course dropping a book on your toe as a child hopefully will come to mind before you pull that pin thing in the tank. Of course that would require some working knowledge of the tank to know what that pin really did.
Of course over the years I have learned (often the hard way) - not to be messing around with stuff that I have no clue on how it works! (Like tanks!)
