Your not going to believe what the US NAVY had to Apologize for

[JB @ C and L Machine]

I was listening to my favorite radio station on the way home today and wanted to throw my radio out the window when i heard this. Am sure all of you saw some of the cruise missles with special messages to Bin Laden. The US NAVY had to issue an apology for the one that said "Highjack this F*G"... Is polical correctness going to ruin this country

Why am I not suprised...

Yes, reminds me of the line used in the film "Apocolypse Now (sp)" where Col Kertz says young men are expected to die in battle for their Country, but cant write the word fu** on their equiptment.



Our squadron symbol was a Vietnamise demon named Olof. The gooks (gooks:defintion of the bad guys who killed our fathers, brothers, uncles, friends and neighbors... NOT the definiton of all Vietnamise, so dont flip out and start riding my rear about being PC) were so supersticious, and almost dropped a load in their black pajamas every time they saw one of our helicopters coming in hot laying down an impressive wall of fire with Olof looking down on them the whole time. Now days that would be "looked down" upon by outsiders.



Too many hands in the cookie jar I say.

Roger that

Most women who serve, realize the significance Nose Art has in our services history, and could have cared less whether it depicted a well endowed female.



Those pipe smokin rejects from the 60s should find a better outlet for there energy like convincing foreign nations to respect the Geneva convention.

now is not the time...

for being PC. i suddenly realized on 11 sept. 2001 how stinking sick and tired i am of being PC. anybody that doesn't like it can kiss my FAT (and it is), frickin' a$$ (for the sake of the board, i will relent on the PC thing here). tell the children of the FDNY, NYPD, PAPD, and the service people at the Pentagon that they have to be PC. yeah right. BTW, isn't it a shame that the media has kinda swept aside the pentagon, and united 93?
