I always like this one better. "We're surronded, that simplifies the problem. Now we can shoot in any direction."

So Carrying and TC are both from Michigan and so am I....I'm starting to see a trend of people that live near Detroit joining the Marines and then carrying pistols at home...connection? I'm originally from Taylor BTW

I was a Navy Machinist Mate Chief Petty Officer specializing in Nuclear Propulsion and Radiological Controls while on active duty, and attached to a Construction Batallion while in the reserves during Desert Storm. I was also a California Highway Patrolman for seven years. So I guess I could've voted twice.

USN 1961 - 1991. 30 years and enjoyed every day. Would do it again if I could. If they would raise the age to 63 I would go back in.

Based on your logic I guess I get three votes then, Navy, LEO, and Marine since my father was a career Marine (WWII, Korea, & Viet-Nam).

I seem to be one of the few USAF people here from 1966 - 1978.
