Oh, the things they don't show you in the recruiting videos!
Actual conversation with suspect
Suspect: Why am I under arrest?
Me: For posession of CDS.
Suspect: Man, it wasn't CDS! It was E pills!
If at first you don't succeed. . .don't try skydiving!

You know an Army video is bad when it's hard for someone to make jokes about the Navy after seeing it....lol

LMFAO. I have to admit I had a lot better luck during my ten years in the Air Force, though. In fact it was all better than anyone ever described. But I do know folks in the sista services that would agree with you, lol.... Originally Posted by Roshambo

I enlisted just barely prior to Vietnam. In fact the Gulf of Tonkin incident occurred while I was in basic. Originally Posted by Roshambo

The recruiter handed me the list I could attend and I handed it back and said, "I don't want to learn a trade, I just wanna kill guys". I could tell by the look on his face that my days as a comedian would be severely limited. I took the list back and selected "Field Radio Repair" I assumed I would have a bright and profitable future as a TV repairman......
Now that I think about it, I really did end up doing what I joked about and never have fixed a television......
