Full disclosure - I like that, Commander! :-)

Reminds me of an old joke at a Marine Corps ball years ago.


A Navy admiral and three generals from the other three DoD services were standing around arguing about which service was superior to the others. Each was making passionate points, and the argument was beginning to get overheated. Suddenly there was a flash of lightning that struck nearby and knocked all to the ground. As they got back on their feet, they found a glowing note with beautiful script that read:
---------

Each military service has its strengths and weaknesses, but all servicemembers - regardless of uniform - serve honorably. Inter-service bickering, especially among general officers, only detracts from this honorable service. Be grateful for all military services and their members.

Signed,

God
U.S. Marine Corps (Retired)

It's only a joke 'cause He's still on active duty.
