Draftee 2nd louies were fun.
But some of the really nuttiest 2nd louies were the gung ho marines.
Master Sargents were tough old boys and most times knew their stuff. Great watching them mentor younr officers with mush for brains.

No Such thing. Now draft induced OCS/OTS grads, aka 90 day wonders, yeah. Lt. Calley comes to mind.

Now wait one while I go find an NCO to ream you a new one. One particular Chief in missile facilities at Offutt AFB comes to mind. Wonder if he's still alive and kicking? That was a long time ago.

I thought so. I was one of the Master Sergeants. ;)

Working together, we could have him almost literally chasing his tail.
