2-250 depending on what organization you go with.... but I think the banner in my sig says it all :D
You can usually scoop up a Tony's Track day slot for cheap from someone selling their spot last minute if you're quick on the draw. There's also auctions. You can also come to an event, cornerwork & earn money towards a future event.
sounds good
lemme know when ur goin niles, ill try to hit it up with u, maybe grab jay, njus, and twheat as well?
yea, i can almost guarentee njus wouldn't do it, the kid has practically fallen off the face of the planet. jay would be up for it, he's got all the gear, thinks he's a moto GP racer as it is, so it's just a matter of timing for him. Twheat I'm sure would love to join in, he seems like he's always up for a ride. We'll try and work it out
team work... gotta love it :hellyeah:
just make sure your motogp buddy keeps any ego he may have in check. It's always the next Valentino Rossies that ends up highsiding themselves into oblivion while going up Highside Hill (turn 4) :P
Umm sorry about that but I believe your wrong. (although it used to be that way) Ask a recuiter.
We do give you an MOS as an 11B (Grunt infantryman). But You have to go to the Warrior transition course.
Back on topic... Hey Jarhead, get you but to the track so I have someone who is slower than me! :poke:
Brainwashed is right!!!
The Army is not trained to "retreat". It is called a flanking manuever or a Tactical withdrawl :). Sometimes they can be very smart options. :poke:
The biggest difference in the Marines from the Army is that EVERY Marine is trained to be a rifleman first, where as most of the Army just THINKs they are a rifleman first. It is all about thinking, something Marines don't do alot of. :poke: :D
Oh and how do you say Hooah with a dick in your mouth?
Hoorah!! :lol:
I love this interservice rivalry stuff. :)
Huh? It really seems like you would ONLY know that from personal experience though.... :dunno:
Oh and as for the Marine/Army Basic thing... I checked and someone told me that the Marines take our Basic and we take theirs if you transfer to either service. Neither take the Air Force or Navy's :lol:
#1 - Thanks for serving and I'm truly sorry for the casualties your fellow soldiers have suffered overseas.
#2 - Certainly the Air Force and Navy would detect such an attack early and do a lot of damage to the attacking forces from air and sea before they ever reached American soil. That's what the Air Force and Navy do to help the Army and Marines, so I wouldn't discredit their air and missile strikes which greatly add to preserving the lives of many ground troops.
#3 - Your scenario is outdated. The threat now comes from hijacked aircraft, ships, barges, submarines and ICBMs. Ground troops will do little against an attack of this type on the US. Again, it's the Air Force and Navy that are waiting in the air and at sea to intercept these threats.
#4 - I think you've confused the roll of the Army and Marines. Their job is not to kill, but rather to save. The Air Force and Navy could have completely obliterated Iraq, but instead we struck strategically and then sent in Army and Marine ground forces to preserve innocent lives that the Air Force and Navy would have taken in a more destructive attack.
#5 - Air Force Veteran
Seeing as how im an unbyassed person here allow me to throw my 2 cents in. I dont think one branch is any more important than the other. Dont they all have their specialties? I mean the navy provides Ships and big GUNS (I.E. Missles) which allows us to attack from further ditances thus saving american lives. they Carry jets with them which both the air force, marines and navy fly correct? The Airforce creates air superiority eliminating the oppoents chance to launch fighters and bombers. The army brings in the heavy artiliary tanks etc... and whipes out ground forces. The Marines basically go door to door taking out enemies on the ground. So to me its a pretty sick 4 pronged attack and with out one or the other I dont think our Military as a whole would be as dominant.
Am I wrong?
Ohhhh....!! I was waiting for this! :popcorn:
Some VERY good points there Cheese. :)
You will always need forces on the ground. To hold the ground.
Personally if the Air Force and Navy make that ground an impact zone with bodies strewn about I am happy with that. It makes my life a WHOLE lot easier.
A Soldier and Marine are doing their business in urinals next to each other in an airport bathroom. They engage in some small talk, mostly some pot shots at the others branch of service. They both finish around the same time. The Marine goes to the sink and starts to wash his hands while the Soldier just heads for the door. The Marine looks at him disgusted and says, "At least in the Marines they teach us to wash our hands after taking a piss." The Soldier looks at him and says, "In the Army they teach us not to piss on ours". :poke: :lol:
Well the first part of the problem is youæ±*e an "AIR FORCE" vet.. :poke:
Secondly, my scenario was a total hypothetical situation only to prove a point about the psychology of training and it's consequences in a wartime scenario. Don't misconstrue my statements as any sort of tactical battle plan, or whether or not we would be faced with that type of situation with an enemy. You're rebuttal and argument was totally irrelevant to the point I was trying to make.
And 3rd: At what point in your senior year of high school did you realize you weren't man enough to join the Corps and decided to throw the towel in and sign-up for the Air Force??? :poke::poke:.......................
I don't doubt the Air Force and Navy are very good at what they do, I was a forward observer in the first gulf war, and I've seen first hand what each is capable of. I've called in fire missions using Naval battle ships and also worked closely with Air Force and Army Air control liaisons while in the gulf. However this discussion is mostly focused on A Marines/Soldiers training and how intense each one can be. Now, Air Force boot camp is just laughable. Then again, the Air Force doesn't need highly trained warriors to go out and kill using brute physical force. I also take offense to your comment about the role of Marines and Army soldiers. You are speaking "out the ass" as they say when making a statement like that. Make no mistake, it always has and always will be, the job of both to kill the enemy. We may be doing it smarter now and the way in which we are fighting the Iraq war may be a little different due to urban warfare and trying to win the hearts and minds of the Iraqi people. However, this is but one war in a long line of wars and, I'm sure, certainly won't be the last. We just tailor our war tactics and how we fight to each individual war. Doesn't mean we don't still kill! (only someone in the Air Force would make such a statement!.. ).

I guess it's difficult to rebut a hypothetical situation that no longer exists and was designed to prove one's own point.
It was after earning high ASVAB scores and being requested to serve by all 4 services. Unfortunately the Army and Marines weren't able to offer careers that fit my strengths and goals beyond the military. The Navy offered nuclear power options that I wasn't interested in and the Air Force offered a position working in R & D on a little project now partially unclassified and affectionately called the Cruise Missile. So although I had a cake-walk basic training and never marched into combat with a rifle, the work I did has proven to be very effective in clearing hostile environments so that your fellow Marines can march in safer. Um .. your welcome.Quote:

I didn't mean to say you don't kill. Merely that the Air Force and or Navy could have killed all, but instead we took our best shot at what we thought was the enemy and then let the ground forces thin out (kill) the enemy that is buried deep in the civilian population.Quote:

As for your score card; Unless it's another hypothetical thing to benefit yourself, I suggest you let the other forum members keep score.
It's all good. Doesn't really matter what we all do in the Armed Forces, point is we all stepped up to the plate and served our country. I'm fully aware that each service plays a very important role to the sucess of any mission/war. I just like giving people a hard time about military service and due to the fact I was a Marine and cocky as all hell.
Cheers....

But isn't the Marines just a department of the Navy??
I'll give you it's the "Men's" department but it is still a part of the Navy. :P :poke:
A bartender is sitting behind the bar on a typical day, when the door bursts open and in come four exuberant Marines. They come to the bar and order five bottles of beer and ten glasses. They take their order over and sit down at a large table. The caps are popped, the glasses are filled and they begin toasting and chanting, "51 days, 51 days, 51 days!" Soon three more Marines arrive, take up their drinks and the chanting grows, "51 days, 51 days, 51 days!" Two more Marines show up and soon their voices are are joined in raising the roof, "51 days, 51 days, 51 days!" Finally the tenth Marine comes in with a picture under his arm, he walks over to the table, and sets the picture in the middle and the table erupts.
Up jump the others, they begin dancing around the table, exchanging high-fives, all the while chanting, "51 days, 51 days, 51 days!" The bartender can't contain his curiosity any longer, so he walks over to the table.
There in the center is a beautifully framed child's puzzle of the cookie monster. When the frenzy dies down a little bit the bartender asks one of the Marines, "Whats all the chanting and celebration about?"
The Marine who brought in the picture pipes in, "Everyone thinks that Marines are dumb and they make fun of us. So, we decided to set the record straight. Ten of us got together, bought this puzzle and put it together. The side of the box said 2-4 years, but we put it together in 51 days."
BAAHAHAHAHAHA!!! :lol:
A Soldier was in a bar, he leaned over to the guy next to him and says, ''Wanna hear a MARINE joke?''
The guy next to him replies, ''Well, before you tell that joke, you should know something. I'm 6' tall, 200 lbs, and I'm a MARINE. The guy sitting next to me is 6'2'' tall, weighs 225, and he's a MARINE. The fella next to him is 6'5'' tall, weighs 250, and he's also a MARINE. Now, you still wanna tell that joke?''
The soldier says, ''Nah, I don't want to have to explain it three times.''
Making a proper thread for this stuff.

by the way, Doc, I don't know where you're getting this sh*t from, but the joke involves a Marine and a sailor... the sailor being the grossed out one after the Marine doesn't wash his hands, the Marine replying "In the Marines they teach us not to piss on ours"... check out the beginning of 'The Negotiator' and you'll see what I'm talking about... of course I'm not basing my argument on the fact that the joke is written that way in a movie... 'The Negotiator' was NOT the first time I heard that joke :shredder:
Doc: "But isn't the Marines just a department of the Navy??
I'll give you it's the "Men's" department but it is still a part of the Navy."
and no the Marines are not a department of the Navy. The Navy and the Marines are their own separate entities under the Department of the Navy. Don't confuse the Dept. of the Navy w/ the Navy itself, not the same (even though, granted, it seems like they are because of the name).
As for you other branch supporters, this ain't your fight, stay out! anyone can stand 3000 miles away, punch in a grid coordinate on a computer, and press a button. It takes balls to kick in a door, aim your boomstick at a guy 10 feet in front of you, and pull the trigger.
Nilez and Nakeddaytrader = 10
everyone else = -2
:wiggle:
on another note, WHO WANTS TO GO RIDING!?!?!?
I am "Getting them" from how I have heard them. :) Beig in the Army I am sure they are told a little differently then being in the Dept of the Navy.
I always thought the Marines were a tough group of guys... I then met Daytrader and realized how much of a little bitch he is... I hope Nilez is tougher....
Anyways you guys want to know pain and sacrIfice??!?
