Military Rules of Engagement

[Tater]

My favorite is the USMC rule # 5.

US Marine Corps Rules:

1. Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one.
2. Decide to be aggressive enough, quickly enough.
3. Have a plan.
4. Have a back-up plan, because the first one probably won't work.
5. Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
6. Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun whose caliber does not start
with a "4." (That just shows good sense.)
7. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life
is expensive.
8. Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (lateral &
diagonal preferred.)
9. Use cover or concealment as much as possible.
10. Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours.
11. Always cheat; always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose.
12. In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or
tactics. They will only remember who lived.
13. If you are not shooting, you should be communicating your intention
to shoot.


Navy SEALS Rules:

1. Look very cool in sunglasses.
2. Kill every living thing within view.
3. Adjust Speedo.
4. Check hair in mirror.


US Army Rangers Rules:

1. Walk in 50 miles wearing 75 pound rucksack while starving.
2. Locate individuals requiring killing.
3. Request permission via radio from "Higher" to perform killing.
4. Curse bitterly when mission is aborted.
5. Walk out 50 miles wearing a 75 pound rucksack while starving.


US Army Rules:

1. Select a new beret to wear.
2. Sew patches on right shoulder.
3. Change the color of beret you decide to wear.


US Air Force Rules:

1. Have a cocktail.
2. Adjust temperature on air-conditioner.
3. See what's on HBO.
4. Ask "what is a gunfight?"
5. Request more funding from Congress with a "killer" PowerPoint
presentation.
6. Wine & dine 'key' Congressmen, invite DOD & defense industry executives.
7. Receive funding, set up new command and assemble assets.
8. Declare the assets "strategic" and never deploy them operationally.
9. Hurry to make 1345 tee-time.


US Navy Rules:

1. Go to Sea.
2. Drink Coffee.
3. Deploy the Marines


Sniper Rule:

1. One shot, one kill.

LOL... I love it! Im going to send this to my cousin in Ft. Benning.
He just went through jump school, and will soon be starting RIP (Ranger Indoctrination Program).
When I get a chance, Im going up to Georgia and giving him a refresher course in shooting. Im afraid the Army might have drill bad habits into him. I cant have him die cause of lax shooting standards. I dont care what he learned in Ranger School. I know I can still kick his rear end.

All joking aside, Im very proud of the lil snot bag .

Pulse, like I said. I was joking, and he knows it. Except for the part about how I am proud of him(as I am with ALL service men, and women) .



P.S. I saw a bumper sticker about this today. It sounds real interesting: adopt a platoon
