"Military Rules for Non-Military Personnel"

Okay, I'll admit it. I just came across this blog and I absolutely love it! CJ at A Soldier's Perspective has an interesting, insightful, funny, and touching blog that everyone should check out. This particular post cracked me up. I've posted a short part of it, so you'll have to go to CJ's site to read the rest. Please do so...it's a great site!

Military Rules for Non-Military Personnel

We know that the current state of affairs in our great Nation have many civilians up in arms politically and rightfully concerned about our troops. For those of you who can’t join the military at this time, you can still lend a hand here at home. The following are a few of the areas where your assistance would be appreciated:

(1) The next time you see an adult talking, (or wearing a hat), during the playing of the National Anthem - - - kick their arse.

(2) When you witness, firsthand, someone burning the American Flag in protest - - - kick their arse.

(3) Regardless of the rank they held while they served, pay the highest amount of respect to all veterans. If you see anyone doing otherwise, quietly pull them aside and explain how these veterans fought for the very freedom they bask in every day. Enlighten them on the many sacrifices these veterans made to make this Nation great. Then hold them down while a disabled veteran kicks their arse.

(4) (GUYS) If you were never in the military, DO NOT pretend that you were. Wearing battle dress uniforms (BDUs), telling others that you used to be “Special Forces,” and collecting GI Joe memorabilia, might have been okay when you were seven years old. Now, it will only make you look stupid and get your arse kicked...

So practice your "arse kicking" and show some respect people! :)
