I wish!! But remember, I live in New York. That's like asking the police to come in for a coffee and a chat! :laugh:

@Gunny (http://www.debatepolicy.com/member.php?u=30) @CSM (http://www.debatepolicy.com/member.php?u=36) do you have this in front of your home?


12546Sergeant Major was US Army. He would not have a Marine Corps sign. I, on the other hand :halo9:, have had that on a tee shirt, a sign in front of my house and a bumper sticker, at different times.

Promise you, and I have been told this by more than one senior back in the day: Nobody brings me to the party for my negotiating skills :)

In my 30 years of service, not once has anyone characterized me as the epitome of tact... not once.

I've been told I have the tact of a nuke, so there's that ;)

No problem. Gunny and I are of the same cloth, just different pattern.

This old sailor is proud of all of you fellow Vets.

The only sign I remember about sailors comes from a time in the Sixties when being a sailor in NORFOLK for years only got one kind of sign...https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/proxy/XL1D4f6b7RbApTJWddDgl0fpwwvmIdQMK-iV_b_FqviEfQlA75_KBuRoE7N1HouKYF86bUKNiMtAnAa6ihst GcuIKfudKQLzlVcP0Evi-IcePnr0TSVE1t-vw6XUTRPXKK_pQTdU4Jc3lYS9B6pop9p9acrsZWAVzxc5


I thought it was just a joke till I saw one in person on Shore Drive in Norfolk near the Former Roller Coaster just outside of the Naval Air Station in 1965.

Like Rodney Dangerfield used to say "We just didn't get any respect" (during Vietnam).
