Semper Fi!

You can get phone service in the rooms. Cell phones are usually the order of the day, though.

jarhead said:from what i remember (6 years ago), TBS rooms sucked ... then, a few years later, as an F/A-18 pilot, i lived for 8 weeks during the winter in a non-heated A-frame metal hooch out at 29 Palms for a double CAX,,, then lived in a sub-freezing muddy tent in S Korea for 3 weeks, i thought back and said, "damn, how sweet would it be, as a fighter pilot, to live in anything that had a decent rack & a heater" .......... suck TBS up, it WILL get worse
(and i'm not b!tching, Lord knows i lived a lot worse when i was enlisted in the grunts)

So do you guys know who gave Bravo Co. the reputation of pant shi$tters? And do you know the story behind it? Don't be mad at me, I'm just curious.
