That must have been a shock. USMC had some exercises in Phoenix not too long ago as well.

They run into a 75 year old Klinger in drag?

"We do support the troops completely," she said. "More than anything, we want them home and alive."
Sure you do..That's why you are interrupting their training exercises that will help them stay alive over there.

Welcome to the New World Order. First they train the
Military in Urban Warfare in co-operative cities--then
they pass laws banning all firearms-then they use the armed forces to enforce the law.Anyone seen those
re-education camps --or the special rail cars being prepared?

hehe, what she will never understand is that Marines volounteer to put their lives on the line and FIGHT for what they believe in...protecting her rights as an American. Keeping them "home and alive" is not part of the Marine Corps mission. :)

Nothing like stupid people who don't understand the mission of the military.

Yes.

When the train drops you off at the re-education camp, wave to me. I'll be the guy in mirror sunglasses, riding a Humvee, behind the Minigun.

Take two aspirin, drink lots of water and call the doctor if symptoms do not improve.

This post brought some memories back. I have lived near Camp MacKall all of my life. We used to have some fun with the soldiers doing maneuvers around here. My little brother used to take food to the spots where they were camping and, in return, they always gave him some trinket or another and some were cool enough to let us shoot the gun mounted on the jeep. We used to give them directions to a particular rendevouz spots when they were lost 'cause we knew these woods like the backs of our hands. It was a lot of fun. I am sure that we got in their way but they never complained. It was never surprising to look out into the woods and see them filled with soldiers. I miss that. My boys have never got to experience that.

"It's their right to freedom of assembly," he said. "If I didn't believe that, I wouldn't be doing this."

This makes me even prouder of our boys in uniform.

Yeah, and I'll be the guy looking at you from behind the 12X scope at 800 yds. Rule .308. :)

You obviously need to add more tin foil to your hat.

Fields of fire are cleared out to 4,000 yards of pool-table smoothness. Rule 120mm.

Just yankin' your chain. I would never question your authority to round up enemies of the state.

Hell, I was just yanking StonyBurk's chain.

Jeez, people, worry about important stuff, OK? Like the prospect of getting done in by a crazed Wahabbist...

We did the same thing in downtown Hinesville with role-players before I went to Bosnia. That training is invaluable - probably the single most important training event we did. It's *very* important to learn how to deal with civilians on the battlefield (COBs) - like when you're about to throw down on a "bad guy" and suddenly a 7 year old walks up to you and says, "Hey, Mr. Soldier, is that a real gun?"

I'll wave, but only if you promise to wave and say, "Tell Goober, Gomer said say, 'Hey!' --- Hey!"

Deal?

That could really interrupt your groove...

Can I be the driver, wearing a Rebel kepi? I always admired Private Hitchcock ...
