Alright soooooo much to address here but I'll start on the $$. Strip clubs really havn't interested me in a long time. Overpriced booze, sweating coked out chicks, and now a "sin tax" just to walk in. No thanks.
And as for my training yes, basic was a joke although it wasn't anything like what he described in that video. I'm sure things have changed since my visit though.
My training didn't get started until a couple weeks after basic and let me tell ya it is considered one of if not THE most difficult of ALL services with a 95% washout. Seals get the glory but here's a little known fact.... there's almost always a Scarlet beret in the mix. It's a team ya ole knuckle dragger.
You havn't lost your gov issued crayons have you?
To everyone else reading this, FB knows I'm just teasing him back. It's what all services do but when it comes to game time we've got our brother back. FB, QUIT EATING THOSE CRAYONS!
I damn sure know what the PJ's are, it was hell for them in Nam with them old Bull nose chopper and a Jungle Perpetrator, there a many of down pilots that owe their ass to them, besides I really thought the Sandie's that covered their ass was awesome the way they protected the PJ's on extractions, they could mow the grass, and even today I watch that National Geographic Combat Rescue, them guys are slick as Owl shit! If I needed help, I would be glad to see them coming. It was hard war but, every now and then you see somebody really doing their job like that and you just sit in awe..
