Tell me, were you an 0151 in the Marines? Food service? Radio operator, maybe? You reek of pogue.Naw, I was the guy shooting the Ma Deuce out the side door as the helicopter hit the LZ.

Really! I often thought about getting out of the Marine Corps and joining the Air Wing ;)
Actually you guys were MARRIED to those helicopters. I'd drive past the air station at Pendleton and there would be guys turning wrenches all hours of the night. And how can forget the teething troubles we had with the 53E? What a nightmare. Good bird now, though.

Thank you Poohbah for your service. But you know, I'd respect you and thank you if you served as the dishwasher, cook or sewer cleaner. All our servicemen, no matter there jobs deserve respect, imo. Apparantly IGOTMINE would disagree.
