I'm all for abiding by the rules of deferrence and precedence, but if someone is knowingly in a position where their rank insignia isn't visible, this reaction is ridiculous. This type of person is the same sort of Jabroni that visits the NEX at Pensacola every day so he can wear out his shoulder receiving salutes from flight school bubbas and junior Marines. You undoubtedly did the correct thing protocol wise, but I would have been sorely tempted to tell Francis to lighten up and just keep walking. After all, JOPA doesn't salute each other or call each other Sir. Unless you're a SWO in Norfolk...
Is it Yut or yut?Or you can be a Marine and always sign S/F or R/S.
Maybe I missed it during my quick perusal of the thread. Is this the second coming of princess Melanie? I mean, holy shitballs batman. . .
Is it frowned upon to post the entire princess Melanie chain in this thread?
Having no idea what you're referring to and wishing to be entertained, I say do it!!
WOW. All these years I'd been missing out on that gem. Speaking of famous email threads, can any Marines hook us up with the Miramar Osprey squadrons that stole each other's mascots and got into a pissing contest about it? Or is that also hidden here somewhere?
