[QUOTE="kejo, post: 942531, member: 12330" Coast guard award for drug bustin’ and earning our squadron’s first Battle E in its history. Maybe my shooter tour EOT.

Speaking of the Coast Guard, looks like they are doing pretty good. However, as the crewmember pounded on the hatch, a better phrase would have been: "Who is the U-Boat Commander?"

I really wish (and I know it's a fairytale wish) that journalists would stop equating deployment money values with individual bust/off-load values. It's not that hard. JIATF is generally very consistent with it's drug values. But "17K pounds" (or even 39K pounds) doesn't equal $569 million.

That said, their deployment total is very impressive.

I was kinda hoping for something like this:

That’s the idea.

But will NAMI grant a waiver for it?

Stumble back to the room after a Red Sox game and saw that, first thing I though was that it was a seizure waiting to happen. I needed more or less whisky before seeing that. You tried, Director Sessions.

Can you choose not to wear a particular ribbon?
Yes. I only wore my “best in show” ribbons when I had to wear them like in an official inspection. If combined all my ACDU stuff with my ARNG stuff I started to look like a third world country “Field Marshall.” (Especially with affiliated cords and such for infantry and some units). Guys like Marshall and Nimitz had three or four rows of ribbons...I certainly didn’t need six or more.
