In this time of tin-foil hat alerts, I thought a little humor would help.

What do I say to the fact of "Never happened"? WHO CARES?! It works for me. And even if no one ever said it, perhaps they should have a few years ago!

This is coming from a vet so don't flame me.
I think the marines are pretty bad ass looking the way they were their hat's down in the eyes and all, but...
how do they go anywhere without bumping into things. Seems to me they wouldn't be able to see anything but the brim of their hat.

She needs to smile when she says MARINE.

They are just a bunch of loveable Sweethearts.

Sounds like she got a fur ball caught in her throat.

It's called a 'cover', and seeing around it is a secret they taught us at Boot Camp.

I don't know if this is a true story, it's probably an email hoax, but there is a REAL, TRUE story very much like this, which you can read about at FIRE's web site:
Deming, an associate professor of Geology and Geophysics, criticized an opinion column that stated: "Easy access to a handgun allows everyone in this country . . . to quickly and easily kill as many random people as they want." A citizen who holds protected beliefs about the Second Amendment, Deming responded with a letter that stated: "[Her] easy access to a vagina enables her to quickly and easily have sex with as many random people as she wants . . . and spread venereal diseases."

Thanks for the R. Lee Ermey site!

He has a poll on his site:

How should the US punish Bin Laden?

I chose this one:
- Let the 'frustrated webmaster' grab him by the throat and squeeze until his %@#**$ eyes 'POP' out!
<---PICK THIS ONE...I have a 55 Gallon Drum of Asswhoop that I'm dying to Pour On Somebody!

Simple .... it makes you raise your chin and hold your head up high .... unlike a bunch of civilians that I see everyday staring at the ground in front of them.

1. That cammied-up Marine in the image above (btw, always capitalize "Marine". Thank you.) is wearing his cover (not "hat") a tad lower than most Marines would.
2. Some Marines, the drill instructors, can wear their covers anyway they want because they have eyes like a fly.
3. In the field, grunts will often don "bush" covers, which are those soft lids with the wide brim all the way around. They are more comfortable and keep more rain off you.
4. Marines don't bump into things because things make sure they get out of the way.

Semper fidelis,
LH
