Hump Day Humor
Subject: Rules of Engagement
Marine Corps Rules:
1. Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one.
2. Decide to be aggressive enough, quickly enough.
3. Have a plan.
4. Have a back-up plan, because the first one probably won't work.
5. Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
6. Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun whose caliber does not start with a '4.'
7. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive.
8. Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral & diagonal preferred.)
9. Use cover or concealment as much as possible.
10. Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours.
11. Always cheat; always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose.
12. In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived.

"Its the coming back, the return which gives meaning to the going forth. We really don't know where we've been until we've come back to where we were. Only, where we were may not be as it was, because of whom we've become. Which, after all, is why we left." -Bernard Stevens Northern Exposure

I find this quite funny because there is so much truth to it.
I still remember my drill instructor telling us that there is no such thing as a fair fight and that our duty is not to die for our country but to make sure the other guy dies for his.
OORAH!

I've done alot of contract work for the Coast Guard and Navy. I know one thing for sure. On the water the food is the best. When doing the Midgett for the CG I put on a few pounds. Between the sticky buns and lasagna I was in food heaven.
