I guess you gotta be military to really appreciate the humor.
That's true - Or at least closely associated - There is a lot of truth in the joke (now only if they would have thrown in some of the jackas$ procedures put in by the JAGs who are ruining the military it could have been perfect).
And now for the rest of the story.....
Meanwhile, newly appointed Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff, Marine General Pace sends in one United States Marine Corps Recon Team who kills all the terrorists, and saves the day.
Mission Accomplished.....
Semper Fi!
Regards,
Joe
PS - Good Joke though.... lol
You sir are an idiot...having been both SF & Ranger, I can tell you that your jocular approach to this situation is stupid!...You posted BS, and I'm calling you on it.
Have a great American day.
Naw, you just have to have read Black Hawk Down.
Either your wit was a little to dry on me and I'm not sensing your humor - Or I'm calling you on your claim. Because had you been either (SF or Ranger) you'd be laughing your as$ off.
While trotting past a double-timing unit of Airborn Rangers, a bunch of us soldierettes sang the cadance of, "I wanna' be an Airborn Ranger...Run like hell in the face of danger...Thunder and lightening make me cry."
It was evil, and I'm almost embarrassed. We had no idea how seriously the guys were about their well-deserved eliteness.
"You sir are an idiot...having been both SF & Ranger, I can tell you that your jocular approach to this situation is stupid!...You posted BS, and I'm calling you on it."
If you have actually been in the military, I would advise you to take a trip to the VA and see how hard it would be to have that stick removed.
Why would I be laughing my arse off? I don't see the humor in posting a joke such as this... Regardless, this type of competition between the two entities (SF is a branch for officers & enlisted, Ranger is MOS immaterial), is stupid, bullets hurt people...it is not a joke.
I don't see the humor...people die, others live!
Democratic response to everything....see the VA
Sir, move on (it's a joke) - You obviously have one sad life - and Thank god you are "former" - Best regards -
What was your point in doing it if you couldn't stand your ground?
So the SF guys are primadonnas...but still worth it.
Darn it! Beer out the nose! LOL!
Best Regards

Sad Life...no, just attacking anyone who doesn't have a clue when posting "jokes"....have a great day...out here.
I'm sending the thread/link to my brother. He was a Ranger first then SF. He'll get a kick out of it.
Some rules for a SF guy are:
1 Dont get lost
2 Look cool
3 If lost, look cool, heh I always liked that one
Anyway, GreenCell, you would know there are plenty of differences in Ranger Regiment or in Group if you were in any of them. The thread joke has been in the military since time began so don't act like you haven't heard it before. So relax, and chill out.
