The Air Force seems to have been working eight hour days. Imagine.
Hands down the Army had the worst food and the best card players. Never had Air Force chow. The Navy mess on Guam was fantastic. Marines drank too much, unlike swabs who all can hold their likker (grin).
Speaking of Marines, a couple of old ones were selling poppies a few years back. I stopped a minute to BS. Wife was present, the Marines were gentlemen (believe it or not most Marines are gentlemen) and we talked a little of the old talk, but without "colorful" language as there was a lady present.
I fed them the old line "the Marines are part of the Navy". (True, of course.) The reply? "Yeah, the men's part."
How can you not like such great guys?
