IF some folks had their way in WW2.. Pinups would have been banned and bombers grounded..

I guess there is an inherent price to be paid by some and not others.. No reason or rhyme to this one..

Maybe a fellow Muslim Marine might have been offended and went jihad.

Btw, I never met a Marine that was an atheist. I guess they do exist, Id certainly prefer them to be in another foxhole when the fit hits the shan.

I went though Airborne training in the summer of 1974. Because I was a taller and stronger trainee, I was selected to be the “pole man” during part of Tower Week.

Black Hats had nude centerfolds inside the tower shack; and it was emphasized to me how important it was to, “hit the hole” , a connection hooking the parachute to the frame of the frame of the the lift that raised the chute up to the top of the tower, all while other trainees chanted, “hit the hole, pole man, hit the hole.”
