You're in the Army -ow!

The following is advice from various U.S. Army journals and instruction manuals:

--When the pin is pulled, Mr. Grenade is not our friend.

--Five second fuses only last three seconds.

--A slipping gear could let your M203 grenade launcher fire when you least expect it. That would make you quite unpopular in what's left of your unit.

--Any ship can be a minesweeper...once.

--"Aim towards the Enemy" (printed on a rocket launcher).

--Cluster bombing from B-52s is very, very accurate. The bombs are guaranteed to always hit the ground.

--It is generally inadvisable to eject directly over the area you just bombed.

--If your attack is going too well, you're probably walking into an ambush.

--If the enemy is in range, so are you.

--Tracers work both ways.

--And lastly..."If you see a bomb technician running, try to keep up with him."
 
--"Aim towards the Enemy" (printed on a rocket launcher).
Hey ... I think that really is printed on the side of the old Law tubes ain't it?

US Army ... we change our minds more before 9:00 AM than rest of the world does all day. :D

Yes, the Claymore definitely says that on the front. I had forgotten about that. If you'd been in the Army with some of the idiots I was in with ... you'd understand why. :D

I once had 20 of those d@mn things daisy-chained on the demo range at Graf all go off at once. I now have a noticable hearing loss on the right side. I doubt I could get a Class 1 medical with it now in my old age.

Man, do I feel stupid or what?

Geezus.

I just noticed Falcon20driver submitted a similiar thread *yesterday* and I didn't even notice.

Nuts.:rolleyes: :confused:
