    Laugh The Rules

    MILITARY RULES BY SERVICE

    Marine Corps Rules:
    1. Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one.
    2. Decide to be aggressive enough, quickly enough.
    3. Have a plan.
    4. Have a back-up plan, because the first one probably won't work.
    5. Be polite. Be professional.But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
    6. Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun whose caliber does not start
    with a "4."
    7. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive.
    8. Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral & diagonal preferred.)
    9. Use cover or concealment as much as possible.
    10. Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours.
    11. Always cheat; always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose.
    12. In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance,or
    tactics. They will only remember who lived.
    13. If you are not shooting, you should be communicating your intention
    to shoot.

    1. Look very cool in sunglasses.
    2. Kill every living thing within view.

    1. Walk in 50 miles wearing 75 pound rucksack while starving.
    2. Locate individuals requiring killing.
    3. Request permission via radio from "Higher" to perform killing.
    4. Curse bitterly when mission is aborted.
    5. Walk out 50 miles wearing a 75 pound rucksack while starving.

    1. Curse bitterly when receiving operational order.
    2. Make sure there is extra ammo and extra coffee.
    3. Curse bitterly.
    4. Curse bitterly.

    2. Adjust temperature on air-conditioner.
    3. See what's on HBO.
    4. Ask "what is a gunfight?"
    5. Request more funding from Congress with a "killer" Power Point presentation.
    6. Wine & dine 'key' Congressmen, invite DOD & defense industry executives.
    7. Receive funding, set up new command and assemble assets.
    8. Declare the assets "strategic" and never deploy them operationally.
    9. Hurry to make 13:45 tee-time.
    10. Make sure the base is as far as possible from the conflict but close enough to have tax exemption.

    2. Drink Coffee.
    3. Deploy Marines

    Well now I know what branch I want to serve in...

    Very funny! Maybe I'll follow in my grandfather's footsteps and join the Air Force. I like what HBO has to offer.

    Later...

    Coming from a 2nd LT who is currently in IOBC.......ugh....I guess there's always a few bad apples.

    On a side note, I'm surprised the Marine who wrote those rules spelled everything right! Way to go!
