Might be the mens dept but do you know why they always ask for a ride?Because they aren't smart enough to get there on their own.
Now you're old enough to know the truth whit,not everyone rides on the short bus.hahahaha
You take the beachhead because the battleships and aircraft turned the forest into a pretty sandy beach,ever wonder what happened to the trees?
and they couldn't have done it without air support .
a team effort is everything.

Bob, Arkansas is full of the right wing whackos and you can guess were abouts within the State the known ones are in and about. You liking the 45LC can be somewhat abridged by your affinity for the ACP, right? Can you spell Wilson's? ... felix

With all the special force groups known and unknown, it must be quite confusing who does what when and where anymore. I am quite sure pay grade does not enter the equation. I saw a lot of this during my tenure (1967) at Fort Leavenworth during the computerization of war gaming exercises for the ????. I was not in the need to know circle about who was in charge of what, but only what instruments which can be drawn upon for the various directed simulations. Included every type of vehicle/ordinance you can think of. ... felix

With regards to gun control in this country, everyone should be asking themselves one question:
What is it that this government feels they need to do, but can't do, unless the citizens of this nation are first disarmed?
(I seriously doubt you can come up with any plausible answers that you will like...)
ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ
Technically this is correct. I am a Master Gunnery Sergeant, that is my rank. My pay grade is E-9 Over 30.
The Master Gunnery Sergeant is unique to the Marine Corps. We are considered specialists in our MOS and for the most part spend our careers within our specialty. Mine was 03xx
A Sergeant Major is an E-9 as well but is considered a generalist and fills a command/administrative billet at the battalion level and higher.
Master Gunnery Sergeants and Seargents Major are peers, equal in rank. However, Sergeants Major usually but not always occupy a senior position by virtue of the command billet. With respect to discipline and morale of the particular unit the Sgt Major is senior regardless the time in grade. In all other settings, if the Master Gunnery Sergeant is senior by virtue of time in grade- ordinary customs and courtesies apply.
One other slight difference is, one may properly address a Command Sergeant Major (SgtMajMC) under certain circumstances as 'sir' or usually just Sgt Maj. The only proper address for a Master Gunnery Sergeant is just that. Master Gunns is informal and usually reserved for peers or seniors but it isn't proper. Top is sometimes used by juniors in informal settings but most Master Gunnery Sergeants don't allow it. I like 'Top'

Of course the Marine Corps is a Department of the Navy.
We're the Men's Department
