I was in the US Army and the US Marine Corps so I was a Soldier, but I am still a Marine. Confusing ain’t it?

Confusing ain't it?

Nah, not to me, at least.

I was an enlisted man and later an officer, we were called mustangs. All said and done, I always thought being an enlisted man was a better deal. Are you confused by that? I doubt it.

So, Semper Fi, grunt. LOL!!!!

Just for shats and giggles, I went into the kitchen and posed the question, “Are you called a soldier, if you’re a Mar...”. Didn’t even get it all out.

Brother answered, “NEVER.” Hubby looked at me like I had three eyes. That could’ve been the beer, though. ; )

That was the shats part.

The giggles part was, “I am ashamed you are even asking that question.”

So, of course, I told the dumbarse I knew the answer, I just wanted to see his response. LOL!

xzins, it’s a Marine thing.
I don’t question it, and I don’t correct it.
