How do you knock out a platoon of U.S. Marines in two easy steps?

[BikeWriter]

1. Throw a bucket of water on a brick wall and yell "Hit the beach!"
2. Repeat step one.

[sakabatou]

1. I don't get it...

[BikeWriter]

4. Are you out of the Marines or are you still in?

[LostinVA]

12. hahahhahahahhaha!

[sakabatou]

16. Never was in, have never been in

[BikeWriter]

19. Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you may have served. ;-)

[sakabatou]

36. That's okay

I'm exempt do to medical problems.

[LostinVA]

2. I must tell my grandfather this (30+year Coast Guard and Navy man)

[BikeWriter]

6. We do love to tease the Marines, but they're handy in a firefight.

:patriot:

[LostinVA]

11. He used to talk about getting into fights with them

in bars...

[BikeWriter]

21. No shit, Pard, and when Marines came into town the prices...

on ALL the local valuable items doubled!

[realisticphish]

3. ha ha

:rofl:

[BikeWriter]

7. Hee hee hee!

[puerco-bellies]

5. LOL.. (Ex Navy) n/t

[BikeWriter]

8. Zoomie here, Pard. Thank you for your service. :-)

:patriot:

[Benfea]

9. Army folk are even easier to mess with.

Wait for them to pass out or fall asleep, then yell "Alert! Alert!" at the top of your lungs while running around in circles and waving your arms.

[xmas74]

17. My brother is former Army.

He'd tell you to fuck off.

His mouth got him into trouble all the time when he was in.

[BikeWriter]

23. Yeah, It would have gotten him an ass kicking in my part of Nam, too.

[BikeWriter]

22. No, no, no. That sounds reminescent of the standard alert...

in VietNam. It went like this:
When in trouble,
when in doubt,
run in circles,
scream and shout.

It worked for us.

[ET Awful]

32. Actually, based on my experience in the Army, you're more likely to

get something heavy thrown at you than to get any other response.

:P

Us infantrymen really love our sleep :)

[Left_Winger]

10. I heard it another way...

Instead of water, it was a handful of sand.

Be glad that I'm a former Marine with a sense of humor, or them's fighting words, lol.

:hi:

[BikeWriter]

24. Welcome home, Marine! Thank you for your service.

;-)

[Orsino]

13. That brick wall trick only works on lieutenants.

Possibly only second lieutenants.

[BikeWriter]

25. Sheeeeeeeit, the hell you say.

:)

[Swede]

14. In God we trust,everyone else keep your hands where I can see them.

Anything worth shooting,is worth shooting twice.

[BikeWriter]

27. Some things three times.

[Pacifist Patriot]

15. Helicopters go by a variety of names in the armed forces.

In the army they are choppers, in the navy it's helos. The marines just point and grunt, "ugh, ugh, ugh."

[BikeWriter]

28. Oh, I see you know some Marines. ;-)

[Wcross]

18. Wouldn't work on my old unit.

I was in a Marine Corps tank battalion.....

[BikeWriter]

29. Oh, bull shit. it still had second louies in it.

[Left_Winger]

33. So was I

:hi:

[Lilith Velkor]

20. ...

:spray: :rofl:

[BikeWriter]

30. Hee hee hee! I'm glad you enjoyed the joke. ;-)

[Floogeldy]

26. This joke is a compliment to Marines.

Brick wall? Ha ha ha ha. Child's play. ;)

[BikeWriter]

31. LOL! To some Marines I know, yes! U.ncle S.am's...

M.isguided C.hildren are a force to be reckoned with.

[Left_Winger]

34. My favorite tranlation of USMC was

yoU Suckers Miss Christmas

[BikeWriter]

39. Yep, it's so true. Marines catch the worst missions!

[Allenberg]

35. At least they can figure out blousing straps

unlike the Army. :D

[Katherine Brengle]

37. Hey! You're mean!

LOL, it was funny, but some of them are smart guys (my hubby for example).

[BikeWriter]

38. ROFLOL! Being a dependent you are required by regulations...

to say that! Most of us vets learned in the school of hard knocks we could rely on Marines. Tell your hubby a zoomie Vet is sending him respect and thanks for his service. :)
