REDs PATRIOTIC BUNKER

Right back at you TH - Hopefully 2014 will turn things for the better in America!!!
 

After noon on the first out here on the left coast. Belated Happy New Year, may one and all have many outstanding finds in 2014.
 

These are supposed to be the Marine Corps rules for engagement. Perhaps you former active duty, or active duty Marines out there can verify if they are true or not. Sure seems like they might work for more than just the Marines.

Marine Corps Rules:

01. Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one.
02. Decide to be aggressive enough, quickly enough.
03. Have a plan.
04. Have a back-up plan, because the first one probably won't work.
05. Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
06. Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun whose caliber does not start with a '4.'
07. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap Life is expensive.
08. Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend (Lateral & diagonal preferred.)
09. 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.
 

I like 6 and 7 best.
 

Perhaps you former active duty, or active duty Marines out there can verify if they are true or not

Happy New Year to All,

~ The Old Bookaroo

Thank you.

It's just another working day for me except for the month, date and year all changing at the same time on the paperwork.

That's partly because I don't partake of adult beverages any more, and partly because I'm working today.
 

Here's another email I got from the same guy. It's probably a joke also. I checked snopes and they have never heard of it, for what ever that's worth. Anyhow it's supposed to be a directive from the Navy.

U.S. Navy Directive 16134 -- Inappropriate T-Shirts )

The following directive was issued by the commanding officer of all Naval installations in the Middle East .
(It was obviously directed at the Marines.)

All commanders promulgate upon receipt:

The following T-shirts are no longer to be worn on or off base by any military or civilian personnel serving in the Middle East :

As far as being authentic, your call ???

The email itself might be a joke, but I guarantee you any military man or woman wearing these shirts will be keel hauled.
The most politically correct institution in the US today is the US military, because of the regime that's in power, and the Soviet style purges that have taken place over the last few years.
 

Happy New Year!!!!
Sorry, I will be on here when I can. Have some projects pressing right now.
