    Being vegetarian in the Navy?

    We had a vegetarian in our platoon when I went through jrs., he made it just fine. Can't remember exactly what was said when the staff found out, but it happened right in the middle of the chow line. On the plus side we could usually trade MREs with him.

    Gun up for Alaska

    One of my good buddies is from Alaska and he hunts/fishes/hikes etc. I think he uses a .300 win mag. I'll check with him to see which brand and I'll see what he has to say about pistols. I talked to another friend of mine this morning who currently resides in AK and he mentioned something...

    Flight Physical?

    A marine will pick you up from the airport, until then just relax in the USO (I was there for about 2 hrs, but mileage may vary). You can't eat or drink anything (other than water) after 1900 the day before. You'll get all of the following tests and maybe more if you're really lucky...hearing...

    Gun Laws in your state

    My buddy actually came up with an idea as to why we Texans have so much pride for our state. I mean it is JUST a state correct? Well it boils down to the same reason why we as Americans have American pride, men fought and died for this country, for our rights and freedoms. Plain and simple...
