We Marines are well aware there are some good Squids among the many. The fact they were somehow induced into joining the Navy rather than the Marines shouldn't be held against them. Shoot fire, all Marines aren't Chesty Pullers even if striving to be so. For all those who may be unacquainted with Chesty, may I suggest you Google him. He is, to the Marines, almost what, I don't want to appear blasphemous, Christ is to a Christian or Bull Halsey is to the Navy. (Please don't get upset over my analogy.)

Five Navy Crosses, nothing to sneeze at and Chesty being only one of two ever to receive five!! Slatten has mentioned Chesty Puller rather reverently a time or two. See, I do pay attention. Y'all are always prompting me to go look up something you've tweaked my curiosity with!!

Yep, I consider badbobby a bud even if he is a Squid. He furnishes good transportation and even better chow when travelling with he and his fellow Squids. We also love taking their money when playing Acey-Ducey and poker.



in your dreams Poppa :lol: :lol:

What would life be if we couldn't all go to a barn dance, get the NPP's and dogs, Searching and llamas (do they train easily?), Armi and mules, Oldy can supply some music, BB can kick up a leg, of course, everybody's welcome. Get Aunti and we'll have plenty of food. Get Slats and we'll have no food, but plenty of fun.

But, lo and behold, it's Saturday and everybody will be off shopping, or complaining about the beach and getting sunburned, or boating and waterskiing. Oh well, off to clean house!!

Thank you for capitalizing 'Jarheads'. You do have some redeeming attributes after all. However, I am wondering why you don't capitalize 'Squids', is it because you are aware they are several rungs below Jarheads in the Naval Service? :lol: :lol: :lol:
