Each would then be 1/3. But you would have increased by 50%.
Two divided by two equals one.
Three divided by two equals 1.5. 50% more.
Enough of that its bed time.

each service has a job to do, I was first in the U.S.Air Force as an aircraft mech. then in the U.S. Navy as an aircraft mech. I was stationed on seven different bases and two different ships the best food I ate was on the USS Midway it was home ported in Japan but was only allowed to stay in port a max. of two weeks except at Christmas we had an extra week, I should point out there is a difference between an aircraft mech. and an engine mech.
I am nothing more than a 'grease monkey'. :roll:
A bad one, at that! :lol:

Of that, I have no doubt. We needed our t***sportation via air or water! :mrgreen:

We wouldn't want to "lose" him into the 'nether world'. It would be best if he stayed where he is.

I agree with you Ginnyt. It was a foolish and unwarranted action.

I am a proud Marine, but will defend my brothers and sisters in the other branches with all I can muster. Of course, we all enjoy intra-service humor and jousting. That
does not distract from the respect each branch deserves. Each serves our country proudly!

My husband was an ex-Marine. Even in civilian life he walked and stood as if he still had the hanger in his jacket. Do you have the same problem? :roll: :roll: :roll:

No Alex, I wouldn't believe that. He wouldn't even wish that on Rayon, 669, Jack14, or any of their associates.

I've never had a problem with having served in the USMC, or remaining proud of my service...if that answers your question. Painful war-time memories aside, I have no regrets. Was was/is Hell.
There are no ex-Marines...only inactive ones. "The change is forever."

There is no ? , is there? Salty was/is right.
My suggestion was your working for Malaysian Airlines would prevent malfunctions leading to crashes.
Besides, Salty and I need you for our threesome get-together when I make it out there! :thumbup:
