Scott if it only snows while I'm home thats good enough for me but it has to be enough to plow n blow around.

Ok so normally my job is pretty slow wait on others to do things at there pace or do what I tell them, Well tonight was working on some hydraulics and a few other issues in a gun, While waiting I started looking at things on the vehicle platform, Checking the batteries taking the plugs out to check electrolyte levels young sergeant comes to see what I'm doing when he sees what I'm doing he says yeah we need to add more battery water, I ask waht makes you think that? I started to explain that they were full because the fluid was up to the line at the bottom of the whole, As I was explaining they need room to expand and such he sticks his fingers in the hole and!!!! I looked at him and said you know thats battery acid? He said ohh I said are you really that stupid? No reply!!!! I have seen lots of dumb ****es in my day but that one topped the list.

Well gents had to share that.

I remember when they used to take 11Bs & put them in a deuce & ½. They'd never driven anything bigger than a car before & thought they were truck drivers. Good thing they were multi-fuel then. They had no idea what they were doing, but they were doing it. Just don't get in their way.

They need to go back to the multi fuel would save money on injectors and engines for sure. Heck you should see them in the MRAP's 2 1/2 was nothing trust me.
