It was never 'bad' to be a 'dirty enlisted guy'; it just doesn't pay as well as being an officer. I would suggest slowing up a mite so the happy...
Thank you very much both for the answer and the offer. I would love a paper copy if such exists. I have the regular Triton XX book. I had no...
I really have been trying not to ask this since I assume if you wanted us to know we would by now: How does what you said in the above quote...
