LOL!

I was reflecting the other day how politically incorrect we were in the 1970's. The jodies we sang, hard drinking parties. We even had strippers in the O-Club. Now I understand they don't even have the Clubs.

The Army is better equipped and has better educated troops today, but I don't know that a politically correct Army is the most effective.
