Reply #14: Never saw any squidies in the CCU I was in, [View All]

[razors edge]

would have been interesting though to see them going to marine boot camp, or the closest thing to it you'll ever do. I just failed a piss test, guess my CO didn't like the taste.

Just kidding, I and three others were "Failed" on a piss test we never took, complete fabricated chain of custody reports and all, due to the fact we were witness to the CO telling two E-5s a certain barracks thief had better "fall up the stairs" on the way to his office. The two Sergent's stabbed the kid in the heart and went UA for a month before getting found. Too bad they got the wrong guy on top of it all. As defense witnesses we were quickly made less than credible with a Less than Honorable. I always wondered if they stole the idea for the movie from that incident.

If I ever have the pleasure of meeting my CO or XO ever again, I am pretty sure they will fall up some stairs themselves.

If 3 hours of PT, 4 hours of busting rocks with a 16lb sledge hammer and the remainder of the day polishing 50 year old toilets is your idea of a good time I suggest you try it sometime with a marine DI wannabe screaming at you all the while, (that part never bothered me though) but the worst part was probably the close proximity to the pig farm.

That was all more than 20 years ago and I don't think about the CCU or the pig shit anymore, but occasionally I would love to kick the living hell out of my Commanding Officers. So you see I have no respect for the military as a whole, the government as a whole, or any corporation really for that matter since their pervasive corruption does not deserve it in my book.
