I didn't write this, but thought it was worth sharing...

• Soldiers don’t fight because they hate the enemy. They fight to protect their buddy.
• Racism exists at every level of society.
• Just because you are on the same team doesn’t mean all the players have your back.
• The government pays way too much money for many substandard products and services.
• There is a large difference between a clean weapon and an armorer approved clean weapon. “Go try again Hill!”
• No one joins the military because they are too stupid for college. I wish this stereotype would hurry up and die already. I served with some of the most brilliant minds of my generation.
• A soldier with a car is a popular soldier.
• Polishing boots is indeed a Zen practice.
• Clothes last ten times longer if you dry clean them.
• Take care of home and never air your dirty laundry in public.
• Women play as many games as men do. And they’re often as unfaithful.
• It is possible to run while still drunk from the night before.
• Not all officers are suitable for command.
• There is such a thing as bad NCO’s.
• Technology can cause as many problems as it is supposed to solve.
• It is possible to drive with zero depth perception.
• Loneliness hurts but it won’t kill you.
• It’s not that easy to die.
• Motrin can solve all of your health problems. If not, take some Cepacol.
• Having the right roommate matters a lot.
• The closest distance between two strangers is a hot plate of good chow.
• Stay alert, stay alive. At all times. In this day and age this might just safe your life.
• Misery is always better with company.
• Hospital food is better than army chow hall food.
• Even a grenade launcher can get boring after a few hours.
• Nothing can cheer someone up like news from loved ones at home.
• If you donate plasma beforehand, getting drunk is a lot cheaper.
• Many times in life, we are required to do things that do not make any sense.
• Wet weather gear will often make you wetter than you were before.
• Humvee’s are horrible vehicles. It takes around 3 hours to replace a Humvee turret by yourself on a Friday evening in the motor pool.
• People will abuse the uniform.
• Heat is a killer.
• If your not pissing clear, time to drink water.
• You can save quite a lot of money by cutting your own hair.
• We are all pawns of more powerful people open to the random chances of fate.

Right!? You haven't lived until you've been on a FRAM II Gearing class destroyer in the middle of the Bering Sea in January. The stories are epic.

I've been in a walrus hide boat in the Bearing Sea but it wasn't January.. The ice pack doesn't leave until April or May Most years we were iced in from November to April or May. Spring whale hunt was the end of April.

You were north of where we were I bet. We weren't hunting whales. Us engineers rigged steam lances to cut the ice off the superstructure. It's kind of scary when the roll of a Destroyer starts getting sluggish.

Seriously, have you ever met someone with chronic sea sickness? We had a girl that started puking on day one and it would last 2 weeks, every time we got underway...She was headed to the mess decks for some food once and a buddy yelled out, "Hey Locke! What are you doing, reloading?"
Whole place fell apart.
Me? I always loved rough seas. Nobody in the chow line. It is hard on equipment and it does make working on anything difficult. You don't want to be in a high power cabinet during rough seas. It also wears your ass out! .

Barrow, AK...

This is the fall whale hunt in September. No ice yet so they drag it onto the beach.

But if you HAVE been on a Fram, it's a miracle you still live!!!

Didn't mean to get all you swabbies panties in a twist...

IT's OK the Coast Guard is there to save you.
