I wasn't looking specificly for subs or Doms really, just curius about the number of people in the lifestyle who also serve. When I first got into the lifestyle, I was primarily sub (and still like to play sub to Liz sometimes). I have been in the Army for 6 years now. Done my time in Iraq, got the T-Shirt and was saved from having to go back again by PCSing just in time. I have met a few people at work who will talk about interest in BDSM (after you do a little fishing) but most I talk to seem to think its kind of weird.

One reason I chose the Marines is because they aren't big on "ring knockers" from the academies. When I joined David M. Shoup was commandant. He was an ARMY ROTC graduate.

A large number of the officers in Second Force Recon were also mustangs.

THAT's the way to run a military organzation [grin]

After a few beers at the mainside E-club, I watched this guy pick up a decent size spider that was crawling on a wall, put into his mouth and not just swallow it, but eat it.

Hey... call it crazy, stupid or whatever - But I know quite a few fellow Marines that were impressed as hell. LMAO!

Thanks for your kind words. It was unintentional - I was in an officer program (PLC), got kicked out the second summer for being a fatbody, and felt so humiliated by that I enlisted - sort of knew I had to redeem myself. I made it back to OCS a few years later as a Cpl. So it was OCS, THEN Boot Camp (PI) THEN OCS again.

All I can say is, that takes a lot of HEART to be humiliated like that in OCS, and then go back through the enlisted ranks, only to try again later. Most guys would have walked away and quit. Plain and simple.

Quite a few NCOs were transferred when Second Force Recon was set up in the early 60s, but this was probably after than. In any case, it sounds like any of a number of the guys I worked with.

Johm the "ringknocker" comment just brought back a great memory.

I went to tank school with the US Army (Congress took away Marine tank school years ago) - Armor Officer Basic Course. One of the five officer cadre instructors we had was an Academy graduate. At AOB there was a bizzare vibe from the cadre - they would leave us alne - and then "pop" in a few times a day to try and catch someone goofing off - it wasn't real supervision and it wasn't trusting us as young officers to do our thing. it inspired a kind of juvenile gamesmanship on our part - we developed eleborate, pantomne hand and arm signals to let the rest of the class know when a cadre member was on deck (we had eight Marines and 59 soldeirs in our class).

So for the Squadron CO (for some reason we were organized in Cav troops and squadrons), who was samll, very physcially fit and tough, but tiny little fellow with a strong nose, and a Caesar like fringe of grey hair around his head, we called him "Pizza Pizza" after the Little Caesar's mascot. On the radio you might pop on, "Pizza Pizza in the AO" on the net, or if you saw him enter a room, make a fist up and down motion like you were holding a staff to indicate "Pizza pizza on deck."

Our Marine Acadmey grad? You would make a fist, and pantomime knocking the middle finger knuckle on a desk - "Ringknocker on deck."

Oh - our whacky hi-jinks!

Sometimes, I'm amazed when we are allowed to get anything new at all. Being a Marine is like being the second kid in an incredibly cheap family. You don't get nothing until "the big kid" outgrows it.

I had joined the reserves back in '94. I was sent to Fort Dixx to be certified as an LVS operator...we had Rick Moranos ( from honey i shrunk the kids) as a SSgt. short little guy. most have been admin because he wasn't very intimidating. on the weeks we were there our down time consisted of 35 gallon trash cans alot of ice and beer. we took over the top floor of the barracks and invented our version of a casino. every room had a name and either playing cards or dominos. well, Rick Moranos come out looked like he was trying to be pissed off and about 3 hours later he was out playing cards with us......Army guys couldn't figure out why it sounded like a party up there...

I was on my non active time when I was called up to go. So when the war was over and my time was over... I actually got to come back home.

nope I would NEVER willingly volunteer to live in Barstow. I lived out in the Yucca valley area for about 12 years and although the nights were absolutly breath taking (city boy here) I hated it. now, I live close enough to the beach. hence the Screen name.

Phew - I wish I had got it right the first time to tell you the truth. But yea, I learned a lot, and I sure am glad I made my early, young mistakes as a Cpl and not as a Lt - I hurt less people that way.

Thanks for your faithful service - thanks to all of you who served.

i remember military men returning to civilian life after Vietnam. All of them i met were secretive about their service, and seemed very sad. We never acknowledged their service adequately, in my opinion...one reason the Vietnam Memorial feels so moving. In our quest to end the War, we failed to acknowledge and thank men who served.

i think most people will agree that a substantial portion of the homeless are Vietnam Vets. This is so repugnant to me; if a Man has risked His life to serve this country, we owe Him at least the goods/services that would allow Him to live in a degree of dignity and comfort.

i support our troops in Afganistan and Iraq but i worry we are beginning another Vietnam; an endless war that has no end-game. i worry about the disruption of the lives of reservists called upon to serve longer tours, or more than one tour. i worry about active military; young people who joined when we had no conflict underway and who are now at risk in a conflict we cannot fully support here in the US.

It is beyond me to imagine the risk that our troops feel; or the suffering they or their families undergo as someone is injured or killed. If my kid was there i'd be in church every morning. Begging for his/her survival, intact, and return.

I guess this isn't the place to talk about my unit getting new F-16s or some of the places we deployed too. Yeah we did Kuwait and Quatar for the 'desert stuff' but we also deployed to Italy, Singapore, Australia, England, The Azores, Chile and a few more. Of course we didn't get to play with the snakes and scorpions so they made us stay in hotels...... Maybe I better quit now.
