I've also been at sea on 2 carriers (including trap landing and catapult take-off), I've spent a week at Fort Knox on an Army officer training exercise, and flown with the Air Force. My son spent 8 years in the 82nd Airborne including a tour in Iraq. And at the end of this month I shall be a guest of honor at the Chicago Navy/Marine Corps birthday ball. So stick your stupid stereotypes where the Sun doesn't shine. Which force were you a member of. Nice Resume'! I'm fairly impressed. Got to say, I'm not. I've known Yeomen to do more (Yeomen to be the epitome of paper pushing "support" personnel for the navy)P.S. Navy already had it's ball at the beginning of the month. You gonna be a date for a marine on Nov 10?"There is an art, it says, or, rather, a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss."

jgoose71 0 #27 October 31, 2013 DanGDo Marines do more? Do they regularly re-qualify to infantry standards? Um- yes, actually they do. U.S. Marines, no matter what their MOS is are always infantry first. Or at least they were when I was in the military."There is an art, it says, or, rather, a knack to flying.

However, I've yet to meet a liberal SEAL, Force Recon dude, ODA Team member, Combat Controller, or any other person of that nature. And I've worked with a lot of them. If there out there, they are as rare as Unicorns."There is an art, it says, or, rather, a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss."
