Is that what they call the Royal Marines now?

I'm sorry, did the taxi driver just say something? 

We'll need to roll down the glass and ask him again.  Wish him a happy vet's day while we're stuck talking to him.

Happy Veteran day to all my brothers..Served in the airforce but never felt like it was the real  military, more like a business or a spin off of the scouts. I did have a good time during my 4 year enlistment which made all the difference in the world....Of course I'm reminiscing and probably forget about some of the rules n regulations that I didn't like....I always heard from our brother in other services that our chow hall food was great and that our living arrangements were top notch. I still think about it and smile..GM

cheesey: I think they promote that for a reason..The services are so different in mission but share a common denominator. All vital for the security of the country...GM

Well, that plus it's fun...at least for the first few years, then again after you're out for a few years more.

Happy belated Veterans Day! I can't join in the rivalry.. I was Subs, Dad was Army Infantry, and my boy is a Marine getting ready for his 3rd deployment.
