    Default Finally! In response to sequestration; an end to stupid safety briefings!

    Commandant Gen. Joseph Dunford, who led “Safety Last’s” initial design, reportedly told senior leaders, “The center of gravity for this mission is Darwinian natural selection. We let the Marines exist in a Lord of the Flies environment, without external supervision, in order to forge a stronger, smaller, more disaster-free Marine Corps after the purge.”

    Funny post.
    Since when have they put their safety first. We drop them off at beaches and tell them "fend for yourselves, boys". What will we do if they all survive?

    Maybe we should try this with politicians...

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.

    We didn't just steal from the Army. Although it was easier than stealing from the Navy.

    A smart .mil person doesn't need to steal anything. They make a call or drop in to someone's office. 24 hrs later if that, it's been delivered. At least that's how it worked years ago.

    Steal from the Navy & we'll drop you off on a hostile beach.

    Credit TFOGGER : Liberals only want things to be "fair and just" if it benefits them.
    Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
    Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
