Dude... the 12th... 12th.

It started out as “recruit don’t know sir” and evolved from there.

Dang...that was the 5th GO...I am getting old...had to google it and even forgot there were only 11.

I can still tell you how to talk your way on to Kadena AFB on Oki, even in uniform!!!! That should make up for any lack of memory...

From your profile page:

We didn’t just fight the British. We were British subjects at that time and we fought our own government!

Thanks for the reminder.

Truth is, there are only 11 GO's....the "12th" is a bit of creative license. I think this might be the Navy version of the "12th."
