The only people we have wilder than them are the SEALS.
SEALS go in when it doesn't matter what means are required.

The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop. Ten minutes went by and the professor proclaimed, "Here I am God. I'm still waiting."
It got down to the last couple of minutes when the Marine got out of his chair, went up to the professor, and cold-cocked him; knocking him off the platform. The professor was out cold.
The Marine went back to his seat and sat there, silently. The other students were shocked and stunned and sat there looking on in silence.
The professor eventually came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the Marine and asked, "What the hell is the matter with you? Why did you do that?"
The Marine calmly replied, "God was too busy today protecting America 's soldiers who are protecting your right to say stupid **** and act like an a*****e. So, He sent me."
A HUGE "Thank You!" to ALL of you boys!

Heres how I think about it. When I was at MEPS getting swarn into Active duty, I was swarn in by an Army Lt, standing in a room full of people going into the Navy, Marines, Army, Air Force, National Guards, Coast Guard, Reserves, and you know what i noticed....we ALL raised our right hands, said the same words, swore the same oath to defend this country and uphold the constitution. It dont matter what uniform you wear, or what you wear on it, in the end, we're all doing the same job.

That's true and in total we're a mighty cohesive offensive and defensive fighting force. I salute each of us (Snowbunny gets a kiss.)
But on this poll ... Marine/Navy beats Army
nubee1, you crack me up, lol, you gotta' come to the G2G!
