Do you want to know what WE used to say about your patch, back in the day?

I won’t post it unless you ask.

I REFUSE to post it unless you ask.

I won’t do it.

I JUST WON’T DO IT!

The HELL I won’t!!!

We used to refer to the horse you never rode and the line you never crossed and the background color was the reason why. But it was all good fun back then!

Back in the Nam I used to come back to our base after a mission and I would go to the EM club. There I would hear stories of combat by guys that never left the base but were there each night. Sometimes I would hear stories that I had told except that I wasn’t in the picture - people would paint themselves in the picture.

Oh well, things don’t change just lots of people want to cash in the glory without doing the deed.
