  2. +09jitters it's an inside joke, Marines that ETS'd and joined the Army or Army reserve. One was in the Beirut barracks bombing.

  3. +09jitters one would think that a USMC DI would know how to spell Parris Island.

  4. I'll give you that one, got bit in the ass more than a few times by spell check. Worse is predictive text. Besides, by all accounts, it's Paradise Island.  ;)

  5. +Sam Whitmore yeah, but there are things that can be said to weed them out. I had quite a few buddies that had a hell of a time at Paradise Island. I had a much easier time at Dix in '82.

  6. And this is how our own nation has taught one and all to eat their own. Especially when this retired Army guy managed to Google the answers in under two seconds. I've also served with reformed Marines, aka ETS'd and went to a softer MOS, such as US Army infantry. Actually, most were infantry, one was injured LOD and went admin MOS in the Army. In moments of inter-service rivalry, I remind every Marine that their paycheck has Department of the Navy stamped upon it.  ;) Those overlapped with are always welcome for a free drink and vice versa. Interoperation is the rule since 9/11, but already planned. So, if you really feel like challenging, try Marine slang, terms unofficially in use in a specific time period, etc. Otherwise, I suggest slack until you meet face to face and can show a DD2A or CAC card or similar US DoD identification cards. Or more simply, stop trying to eat our own in our zeal to uncover some piece of shit unworthy of such an effort online, but well worthy of doing so in person. Where the suspect can attempt to stand at parade rest. Or recite a specific manual of arms within a set amount of time. Or even the specifics of clearing a jam in a specific weapon. General orders?! WTF, over?! Did you not advance beyond Lance?

  7. +I Don't Know oh? Prove some pervert was grabbing some 13 year old's ass while the cop was ascertaining if a federal crime was committed. Yeah, enforcing federal law is stupid.

  8. +I Don't Know he was breaking the Stolen Valor Act of 2013, if he wasn't actually a veteran. If one does not report the violation of the law, the law never gets upheld. Or do you want federal agents as plentiful as local cops?
