I Did Not...










  • When I was downrange a pretty universally hated, fairly senior NCO left his camera in the guard shack at the entry control point. We did not take turns shoving it down our pants and taking pictures of our junk. Further, as an NCO myself I did not encourage the lower ranked soldiers and Marines to do the same.





  • The same NCO considered himself quite the sniper hotshot after a short course back at Hood and being issued an M14 and scope. He absolutely berated one of our Marines when he asked to be allowed to have his picture made with it. I mean really- he intentionally tried to make a fool of the kid for no reason. I did not when that weapon got left in the guard shack call that Marine off his post and take pictures of said Marine rubbing his junk all over the weapon. I further did not provide the Marine with the NCO's email address to send pics to said jackwagon of an NCO once the Marine got back home.

I did not add a little flavoring to a CWO's coffee after he sent me to "fetch" him one.

Because that would be wrong.

Nothing like teabagging a sniper rifle.

Bet he felt a little cock-eyed when he looked through that scope.

R-Z, Ha. Yeah and i'm not filling any blanks in from my side of our world either.

Jarhead- You got that right. That kid is one I've wanted to follow up with. I'm really curious to know if Jackwagon got his 'proof of defilement' pics.
I'm sure the Marine wanted a HARD pic to send back to his buddies on the block also, but his stated reason was because he felt that rifle was so iconic to MC history- went all over me...
