Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Damn Charms (whos got stories?)
Took the kid trick-or-treating on base. Afterwards he dumped out all his candy to see what he got, and I found some Charms in there. 3 packs!
Somebody has a sick sense of humor.
Anybody have any good Charms stories from when they were in?
I'm not tracking.
Charms? You have a sample of these "Charms"?

I'm active and live on base. What are they?
I've heard about it here and there:From WikipediaA superstition exists among troops about the Charms candies that come with some menus: they are considered bad luck, especially if actually eaten. Some attribute this to a case of a dislike becoming a superstition (i.e. not eating them 'just in case' or because it might make one's comrades uneasy).

Just Charms. Not Lucky Charms, so therefore the must be Unlucky. They used to come in MREs.
They bring bad luck (extra bad if you're in combat), you eat them or even keep them later and you get the Charms Curse. If you're the field training, it will start raining... you're deployed, you'll hit an IED or some other bad stuff that nature.
Hide some in your PLs truck if he's a douche.
Must only be bad luck for crunchies. Now apricots or chicken bones, bad juju for a tank.
Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Haw haw haw?..
