Hmm, does that mean you have to go through the Marines training too?

Yeah I did like 7 years ago. It wasnt so bad. Not as hard as it looks I guess.

The first time I pulled a 24 was when we were going to California from N. Carolina. A message came out around 1600 that there were a batch of bad transmissions in the system. OK these xsmns weigh around 1200lbs. each. We had two of them. So I stayed with a group of day-crew guys and did one and our night crew did the other. We had to pull the old one out and replace it with a new one. I didnt leave until my day shift came back to work the next day.
Also in Okinwa we were so short handed that for 3 months straight we worked 16hrs a day, 6 days a week, half day on sunday! They even brought our food from the messhall to us so we wouldnt waste time going to eat!

Well that M16 is an alright weapon, but I would take an AK-47 any day! You can bury that thing in the sand and dig it up and it will still fire!
