• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

As a Jarhead I have to disagree with #12 There's no "five-second rule" when it comes to dropping food on the ground. If you were really hungry that rule could easily be extended to 10-15 seconds. I know "eww"!
 
We did not worry about anything like that during the Hunger Winter in WW II or when I was in New Guinea and SE Asia.:amen:

When I was in Ranger School my Ranger buddy and I ate a C-ration we found in the woods....up near Dahlonega

The Army quit using C-Rations in 1983.

This was 1992.......
