In Ranger School it was, "Drive on with Darvon."

Motrin fixed everything when I was in.

I can remember running behind the battery as the XO, and almost getting drunk from the fumes coming off the members of the unit.

Back in the mid 80s the Navy still allowed smoking but there was a serious campaign underway to eliminate it. Our CO was almost rabid in his dislike of smoking.  During the Command annual PT test a couple of the officers ran to the half way point of the run portion of the PT test, Stopped and smoked a cigarette, and then finished the test.

The CO was pretty hot when he found out but when they turned in a faster time than his he lost it. Heard from the andmin staff that he was cussing a blue streak.

 

He even went so far as to put out a standing order that there would be no smoking during the PT test.

Dobby is not free until his first enlistment contract expires. (Currently 8 years) Lots of individuals learned that the hard way during our foray in the sand box.

Dang. I was not aware they had M16s during the Korean War.

 

But obviously they did, otherwise how would that obnoxious old fart know how the gun worked?

Things you cant make up

Remind me of high school. We wore white gloves as part of the band uniform. But if you play a clarinet or a flute, you have to cover holes with your fingers. All the other instruments you either press down on a valve or you push a lever and it causes a pad to cover the hole. But flutes and clarinets had open holes that you had to cover with your finger. So flutes and clarinets, while we still had to wear white gloves, cut the fingertips off. So we could play our horns.

 

Why did we wear white gloves? Because the band director told us to.

 

And why is that French horn player wearing a mask? Because her superior officer told her to. But you can't play a wind instrument wearing a mask, so you cut a hole.

Or just do as you are told

I think the answer to that is to be found in the frame.

I completely missed that.  My time was on DDs and a FFG. We hunted the "silent" targets. 

Take care,
