And no, not terrified in the slightest. They conceal and carry. They try to convince me to buy a gun. He has like 5 guns in the house, lol the fuck do I care? None of them have ever given me a reason to fear them.

I refer to them as lord emperors of humanity to soothe their egos. It's important to them.jediuser598 wrote:Sure.

Well I always called them Jarhead Faggots to their faces, just to let them know that I didn't give a fuck, and was fully prepared to knock that block off their shoulders, any fuckin' time, any fuckin' place. They think their fuckin' tough, you gotta call them out to let them know you don't think so.Viktorthepirate wrote:I refer to them as lord emperors of humanity to soothe their egos.

We got along with Recon, mutual reconnaissance admiration society, but fuck rifle company, they can eat shit.

Re: Trump to shock world and announce fag genocide in monumental meeting
The Marine Recon guys were cool, but they were definitely at the top of the pecking order, there was no MARSOC back then, so they were the only MARSOF at the time, everybody cut them a wide berth, and when they told the other Marines that we were "Recon", then they stayed out of our way too, there was a kind of aura around the Recce tasking in the Marines.
They were all older guys, mostly NCO's, some Vietnam vets too, all the other Marines sort of worshipped them, Scout Snipers, Combat Divers, they were hardcore, we learned a lot from them actually, they really knew their shit, particularly in the maritime environment which wasn't really our forte.
They did not however, get along with the 82nd Airborne, was about an hour at the bar, the Crown Royal was flowin', and then it went ballistic, exploded into the parking lot, fur flying everywhere.

The book Generation Kill follows those guys around.

This was back in the 80's, the two Gunny's, the Master, and the Sergeant Major, they had some harrowing tales indeed, but it was all I Corps, 1st Marine Division, and Recon, Republic of Vietnam. The Master and the Sar'Major had been at Khe Sanh during Tet. The Gunny's were younger, one of them was Force Recon in Vietnam in 71', the other was at the Fall of Saigon in 75'.Viktorthepirate wrote:The book Generation Kill follows those guys around.

I watched the Ken Burns documentary and all I could think is I'd be scared as fuck if I was those Marines at the embassy. I didn't know they thought they got left behind for awhile.
Too bad those the Marines do every position a rank lower that everyone else and get told it's because they are badasses as opposed to the corps don't wanna give them the same pay for the same job as everyone else.

The guy who was at the Fall of Saigon had a crazy tale, they were at the airport, evacuating Americans, then they airport got shelled, so planes couldn't take off, and they were told a helo would come get them, there was a truck heading back to the embassy, but they thought "fuck it lets wait for the CH-53", but then the helo didn't show, and the truck had already left, and there was no officer, and their Master turns to them and says "boys, we need to commandeer a vehicle here, otherwise, we're gonna have go back downtown on foot, at the double time..."
