OT: Military Assistance By Non-Military Personnel

[Guest guest]

Hi y'all,

 

Now its time for some serious discussion. A buncha y'all been writing

me off line and asking what you could do to assist the military in this

great venture they are about to take on with regard to putting down the

idiots who support terrorists in our own country. Well .. somebody sent

me this nice set of rules .. supposidly written by the Major whose name

is at the end of the list. Not sure if he wrote it or not .. but I am

sure its a right nice set of rules and I hope it is of some benefit to

y'all who been asking. :-P Butch

We know that the current state of affairs in our great nation have many

civilians up in arms and excited to join the military. For those of you

who can't join, you can still lend a hand. Here are a few of the areas

we would like your assistance with:

 

1) The next time you see an adult talking during the playing of the

National Anthem ... kick their ass.

 

2) When you witness firsthand someone burning the American Flag in

protest ... kick their ass.

 

3) Regardless of the rank they held while they served, pay the highest

amount of respect to all veterans. If you see anyone doing otherwise,

quietly pull them aside and explain how these Veterans fought for the

very freedom they bask in every second. Enlighten them on the many

sacrifices these Veterans made to make this Nation great. Then hold them

down while a Disabled Veteran kicks their ass.

 

4) If you were never in the military, DO NOT pretend that you were.

Wearing battle dress uniforms (BDU's), telling others that you used

to be " Special Forces, " and collecting GI Joe memorabilia, might have

been okay when you were still seven. Now, it will only make you look

stupid and get your ass kicked.

 

5) If you witness someone calling an enlisted Marine " Sir, " just stand

back ... a Marine will kick their ass.

 

6) Next time you come across an Air Force member, do not ask them, " Do

you fly a jet? " Not everyone in the Air Force is a pilot. Such ignorance

deserves an ass kickin' (children are exempt).

 

7) If you witness a bunch of long-haired slobs harrassing some young GI

in a bar, just step back out of the way so as to not get blood on your

clothes and when its over, buy the GI a beer and congratulate him/her.

 

8) Roseanne Barr's singing of the National Anthem was not a blooper ...

it was a disgrace and disrespectful. Laugh, and sooner or later your

ass will be kicked.

 

9) Next time Old Glory prances by during a parade, get on your feet and

pay homage to her by placing your hand over your heart. Quietly thank

the military member or veteran lucky enough to be carrying her .....of

course, failure to do either of those could earn you a severe ass

kicking.

 

10) What Jane Fonda did during the Vietnam War makes her the enemy. The

proper word to describe her is " traitor. " Just mention her nomination

for " Woman of the Year " and get your ass kicked..

 

11) Don't try to discuss politics with a military member or a veteran.

We are Americans and we all bleed the same regardless of our party

affiliation. Our Chain of Command includes our Commander in Chief. The

President (for those who didn't know) is that person regardless of

political party. We have no inside track on what happens inside those

big important buildings where all those " representatives " meet.

 

All we know is that when those civilian representatives screw up the

situation, they call upon the military to go straighten it out. The

military member might direct you to Oliver North. (I can see him

kicking ass already.)

 

12) " Yo mama wears combat boots " never made sense to me ... stop saying

it! If she did, she would most likely be a vet and probably kick your

ass!

 

13) Bin Laden and the Taliban are not Communists, so stop saying " Let's

go kill the Commie's!!! " And stop asking us where he is! Crystal balls

are not standard issue in the military. That reminds me ... if you see

anyone calling those psychic phone numbers; let me know, so I can go

kick their ass.

 

14) Bus Driver, Jar Head, Grunt, Swabbie etc, are terms of endearment we

use when describing each other. Unless you are a service member or vet,

you have not earned the right to use them. Could get your ass kicked.

 

15) Last but not least, whether or not you personally become a member of

the military, you can still support our troops and their families. Every

Thanksgiving and religious holiday that you enjoy with family and

friends please remember that there are, literally, thousands of troops

overseas wishing they could be with their families.

 

Thank the Great Spirit for our military and the sacrifices they make

every day. Without them, our country could get its ass kicked.
