Arizona man shot, wounded in Army-Navy argument

A Christmas Day argument between two servicemen over which branch of the military was better - the U.S. Army or Navy - escalated from a fight into a shooting.

[Tater]

Navy apparently wasn't told to not show up at a gun fight without a gun!

 

[Ben Draughn]

i say they are both lucky there wasn't any Marines in the room.

 

[Golden-Eagle]

What was that, a .22?

 

[Tater]

I thought marines was department of the navy?

Oops forgot about you on here, might have saved that one for later

Of course Seabee's are a different breed too

Have you seen the new shellback shirts on 7.62 Design.com?

Those shirts look pretty sweet.

Yeah, Seabee's aint a different breed, we are a different species all together.

I was a floatee until I saw the light and cross-rated. Was on an amphib with 1000 Sailors and 2000 Marines. Needless to say, both groups had a lot of fun making fun of each other on that boat.

definitely not a .22

Yea been there. Green and Blue Chow lines and the Navy always went 2 blue 1 green. Would always **** most Marines Off until they realized they were on duty

On-reps still haunt me though

I do remember this one time during on-reps the supply ship had a HUGE LSU Flag. I thought that was cool but wondered if that was legal per-say. Probably took it down when going into port.

Saw something similar in Afghan in early 04' LSU Flags on a dozen or more Humvee's. Come to find out, it was a NG unit out of Farmville, LA. north of Ruston. Went over there and had a good laugh with those boys. They were building showers for the troops @ Tarin Kowt. Ah the good’ol days….

We use to mess with the Marines big time. You guys never seemed to mind standing in lines. One time on deployment, me and two other buddies stood in line by a broom locker that was locked up. We had a few Marines come up and ask what we were waiting for. We told them that this was where you could check out DVDs and they were suppose to be opening soon so we wanted to be first in line. They got in line behind us. More and more Marines started getting in line behind them. About 10 minutes later, there was about 15 Marines in line. We turned around and said "Crap! We need to check in for duty, can you hold our spot?". We walked by an hour later and there was about 40 Marines still waiting in line.

What people to do to alleviate boredom underway.

I still think about on-reps. Hated them.

*******

I can vouch for that. We do stand in line for most everything. Shot call, Roll call, Ammo, Armory lines, Chow lines, forever and ever and ever and ever ...yawn... get kind of used to it and plus a lot of jack-assery goes on in those lines like the good'ol powder in hand slap! "Hey Ducote is this what you were talking about"....As Ducote turns around *OPEN HAND SMACK* in the face with a hand full of baby powder!

 

[SeventhSon]

Yeah, we were.

But they would get us back. We would have to do maint. checks in the fan rooms in troop (Marine) berthing every month. They locked me in there one time. Dogged the doors down and put a broom handle through the lock. Ha ha very funny. I just had to wait until someone in my Div came checking on me. One of the best naps I ever had.

I learned to lock the hatch open after that.
