shipwreck survivor washes up on the beach of an island and is immediately surrounded by a group of native warriors.
“I’m done for”, the man cries in despair.
“No you are not,” comes a booming voice from the heavens. “Listen carefully, and do exactly as I say. Grab the spear from the one who is beside you and shove it through the heart of the chief.”
The man does so, and the remainder of the band stare in disbelief.
“Now, what?” the man asks the heavens.
“Now, you are done for.”

Our exchanges may be viewed as "a beautiful thing" but BB remains a butt-ugly Squid, whereas, stalwart Marines (such as myself) are magnificent sights to behold...especially decked out in Dress Blues.

USN Water Lilies may, on occasion, be "upstanding" but they generally squat to pee. Marines, on the other hand, are manly and impeccable in manner, style and appearance.

BB, you might wan'na re-read my description of the Saintly Marines: "Marines, on the other hand, are manly and impeccable in manner, style and appearance."
On the other hand, modesty is not our greatest virtue. 
Yet, Sailors have earned a right to their well-deserved modesty.
