Ranger Luna: Believe me, I understand where you're coming from! That would be my inclination too. However, riots by our own citizens are not war. Even the deliberate destruction of property does not justify the use of deadly force. The ROE for riots are specific: you cannot shoot someone for throwin...

Ranger Luna:
They did a lot of things, but nothing that justified popping caps, IMHO.

Malarkey, the burning of the ROTC building brought the Guard to the campus, but that actually had very little to do with the shootings two days later.

. . . and trim the nosehairs, for God's sake!!!!!

Ranger Steadfast: Thank you for allowing me to add my .02 to this thread. I think this was a great idea for young Malarkey, especially since he lives in the area. He certainly knows a lot more about the subject than he did. As for my creds, as I have listed in my signature, while I was in 5th Grade ...

Malarkey87:

Impressive length and bibliography. I will fully analyze your effort and make a recommendation to Ranger Steadfast tomorrow. I have other more important commitments this evening.

The utter stupidity of this elitist left-wing cretin is breathtaking, even for a "northeast college boy". There are probably a fair number of jackasses around the country that agree with what he wrote, but to have the mind-numbing ignorance to put your name to it defies description! He's s...

I am not authorized to stake out the new Lt and leave him as bait in order to save the plt from The Predator!

Some strictly tanker ones: I am not allowed to dispose of main gun rounds accidentally taken off the range and into a secure area by dumping them into a pond. It is wrong to shout "On the Way!" on a live range while my cherry loader is on a ladder at the end of the main gun tube boresighti...

I'm in Wooster, but went to school at Kent from 1979-1982. Malarkey, are you up to Ranger Steadfast's assignment? You better be, the unit that did the shooting was mine, although I wasn't in it at the time. Several of the weapons used on the hill that day were in my arms room and I know several of t...

I am not allowed to play Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" over the command net during an attack on the OPFOR, even if the RCO is of German descent. It is wrong to set off smoke grenades during the Gay/Lesbian Valentine's Day dance on campus, even if they ARE lavender. (Purple!!! They're pu...

I am not allowed to yell to other officers across the room, as we are saddling up for a day in the field early in the morning, when the RCO is asleep on the other side of the wall. I am not allowed to laugh when the RXO comes in the room to tell us to shut up. When asked to say a few words at the sq...

Here's a couple more from us: I am not allowed to replace my body armor plates with MRE cartons because "The shit is too heavy." I am not allowed to perform mock interrogations with the new privates even though I am a SERE graduate. I am not authorized to ask POWs if they are "Special...

Ranger h8train1/75 and I have been trading a few "Skippyisms" (see thread entitled 213 Things) and we'd like to hear some of yours. Here are ours so far: 1. I'm not allowed to go fishing with C-4 and a blasting cap. 2. I'm not allowed to take flashbangs from the Ammo point for the 4th of J...

Lexlawgirl:
Welcome! You aren't the only lawyer on this board, but certainly the best looking one! I've been a member of the Ohio bar since 1989.

I thought you all would enjoy this. I got it at Avalanche Tankers The 213 Things Skippy is No Longer Allowed to Do in the U.S. Army By: SGT Shawn Stanford Once upon a time, there was a SPC Schwarz stationed with the Army in the Balkans. SPC Schwarz was either very clever or very bored; but probably ...
