I know we have alot of people in the armed services on here(Bloodsage, Azakias, UBT) but...what ranks/branches (If I recall correctly, BS is airforce and Azakias is Navy?) are all you guys?

So...Azakias is Marines? Either that or I'm missing something here.
Azakias is an E-3(4?) in the Navy.
Led is enlisted in the Air Force no idea what grade.
Bloodsage is a Major(Lt. Col.?) in the Air Force.
UBT recently retired from the Army.
Probably screwed most of them up but that is the general jist of it.

I heard there was some sort of blade instruction too. It's hearsay, though, so I could well be wrong.

Bad stuff: You'll lose all sense of individuality and become a prick.

In short terms Marines are scary, but good people
there are sabers. I believe you only get to have one once you make E7, which is cpndidered senior enlisted. (Yes, I do know the manuel of swords as well as the manuel of arms)

Could you fight with them if you wanted to or are they just made for decoration/display?

Purely decorative. You dont even see them very often, except at very formal occasions.
It's not something people hear about.

Bloodsage said this about your mom:
I've been pinned-on about 2 years. This is my first look for promotion--we get two chances early (the odds are overall about 2%), one chance on time (the odds are about 50% overall), and one look late if you don't make it on time (the odds there are <1%). Not having been a unit commander pretty much shuts me out of early promotion, but I've got a better-than-average shot in the zone in '07.
I thought you took over as a CO for a week or two in there?

nuh uh the average person can run 25 feet in 3 seconds so even if i was 50 feet in front of you i could still do it

Yeah, it was several months. . .but it's not quite the same thing in terms of career progression.

I will try to answer any questions and will reply with better info after I have time to read the other post..
FYI.. The Marines are the only brand of service still allowed to use the enlisted and officer swords. (mainly for ceremonies and what not) OrangeBrand fucked around with this message on 09-29-2005 at 05:53 PM.
Officers and enlisted use different swords. Each with its own history.

Enlisted get a diffrent pigsticker?
I can Swear that the one my old man has has always be refered to as a sword.
I was planning on joining Combat Control around the start of the year until I realized I could do better.
