Yeah, a Soldier is in the Service named in the Consitution, and a Marine is a Sailor with a gun.  <snicker, snicker> :P


Couldn't resist ;D

Friend of mine mentioned to a grizzled old Marine gunny that the USMC was a Department of the Navy.

"Yeah," he agreed.  "The Man's Department."

...she is one term away from getting her Bachelor's at USF and moving to Okinawa to be with her new hubby. 

Go "Bulls".   I too am one.  Class of '74.   

Okinawa is a terrible place.  Warm sea breezes.  Swaying palm trees.  Lush beautiful mountains.  Sparkling oceans.  White sandy beaches.  I use to love to get stuck there every chance I could.  I probably accumulated about 30 days at Kadina when officially I was never there.

I was SUPPOSED to be in Kadena for a month and a half but only spent a week.  Didn't see much except just outside the gate, but did fly around a little.

Yokosuka, Atsugi, Misawa, and Yokota were fun too. Can't wait to get back to Japan for a bit.

What was it John Gierach said? "We Lutherens don't go around confessing our sins, because once you do, well you're still screwed up, only now everyone knows about it". ;D
