You didn't sign your life away then.

Navy- Have fun living on the water for months at a time and having cramped quarters.

Army- Chinese water torture to anybody that has a brain.

Marines- Higher class Army.

If it doesn't say "Air Force" or "Coast Guard", you made a mistake.

You already have enough other shaky loyalties to make a congressman jealous, then you want to take jabs at the real fighting forces...:rolleyes:

sometimes, you just make it way too easy.;)

It's too easy...I'm not even going to take the bait.

I respect all who have served. Having been a Marine, i obviously have my loyalties, but it is to my country first, in the context of being a citizen.

As well as I.....:)

I actually got that term from a retired Marine W2 Cheif Warrant Officer, he was my neighbor several years ago and he always called Marines "bullet bags" or "bullet cushions". He was a very nice but stern man..... He always cussed at the kids in the neighborhood for what he called "bumping music" coming from their trunks... I liked that man alot.. He up and moved about 4 years ago...
