Ms. Behavin & Old Sarge | 06 JULY 2006 | Ms. Behavin & Old Sarge

Posted on 07/05/2006 7:04:50 PM PDT by Old Sarge



Army?

Navy?

Air Force?

Marines?

Coast Guard?


Why did you choose that particular branch?


Where did you go to Basic Training or Boot Camp?

What is the name of your unit? (Division?) 

What is their (your) mascot?


Tell us how much you loved your DI!

How long were you at Boot Camp/Basic Training, before you questioned the parentage of the senior Drill Sergeant?How long were you in service before you realized that the instructors were right in all that they taught you?

 

Your first landing on an aircraft carrier

Your first parachute jump

The heaviest vehicle you got to drive

The largest weapon you got to use

Did you serve before email?

Did you have a personal nickname?

It is our pleasure and honor to be here for our Troops, past, present and future...
and especially during this Week, the 4th of July we remember that we owe our freedom to you.
Thank you for your service and sacrifice, and God bless you.

         

A gentle reminder from Ms.B:  
Please, no politics in The Canteen. 
The Troops need a place to rest, relax and relate, and that place is The Canteen.
Have fun and play nice!

Today's FEEBLE

YOKE :

A very successful lawyer parked his brand new Lexus in front of the office, ready to show it off to his colleagues.

As he got out, a truck came along too close to the curb and completely tore off the driver's door. Fortunately, a cop in a police car was close enough to see the accident and pulled up behind the Lexus, his lights flashing.

But, before the cop had a chance to ask any questions, the lawyer started screaming hysterically about how his Lexus, which he had just picked up the day before, was now completely ruined and would never be the same, no
matter how the body shop tried to make it new again.

After the lawyer finally wound down from his rant, the cop shook his head in disgust and disbelief. "I can't believe how materialistic you lawyers are," he said.

"You are so focused on your possessions that you neglect the most important things in life."

"How can you say such a thing?" asked the lawyer.

The cop replied, "Don't you even realize that your left arm is missing? It got ripped off when the truck hit you!"

"OH, MY GOD!" screamed the lawyer.




















"MY ROLEX!"

waiting for the time to leave for work.

I don't know how some of you do it....Get up and come to the Canteen before leaving for work. I get up at 0430 and leave the house at 5:15 or so, so that I can get to work by 6. If I were to get on the computer before leaving the house, I'd be late everyday. Once on, it's hard for the me leave the computer. LOL

How's the weather up there?

Going OK. Chuck has a little bit of a sore throat but otherwise is up and at 'em this morning.

Brother and his son will be down later today. Son had some things he had to do so they delayed their trip to today.

Going to find out later today what updates will come down from Windows Next week.
