He was Army, but if he goes and earns an EGA then we'll take him.

ROFL!! Love it! True story - when I was enlisting,.. I walked out of the Army recruiters office, and the Marine recruiter was outside smoking in the office next door. He asked me what I wanted to do in the military,.. and I told him I wanted to be Special Forces. He told me not to waste my time with the Army,... that Marines come out of bootcamp the equilivant of an Army Ranger. =) I never forgot that guy!!! He was leaning up against the wall like a shady character in a NYC ally,.. talking low,... eyes squinted,.. like he was gonna sell me some stolen watches!!!! Loved that guy!! I went to many schools with Marines,.. SERE,.. Airborne school,.. HALO,.. and had a few Marine trainers attend SOT school with me as well! The class leader (NCOIC student) in jump school was a Marine,... I was fresh out of bootcamp,... and when he started marching us newbies we were fkg LOST!!!! ROFL! Good times!

That's awesome. Sounds like you had a great career. I don't know why you want to jump out of a perfectly good plane?

I was like 10 guy back then,... didn't give much thought to that stuff!! Truth be told,.. I think the Marines have a closer relationship with military tradition,.. Army has screwed that up so many damn times!

I know that I left a few out, sorry. I couldn't think of any good Colonels, MSgts, MGySgts, 1stSgts, or WOs in the movies or TV. Maybe some of you can help me out?

Yeah, that all have a sea story, but they rarely have a point!

I had this one who everyone thought he was a robot. Extremely stiff, very serious, and had knowledge like google. One time one of my Marines innocently asks him 'what is the difference between UTM and MGRS'. We were granted a 90 minutes class, with illustrations, on the history of modern cartography and geological survey methods, followed by a discussion on the correlation between all modern coordinate systems. No one ever asked him another question, ever.

I knew most of these, but I wasn't aware of the Variety, and thus Order of 'Sargent' ranks... I'd Heard of Gunnery Sgt and Staff Sgt, but I just assumed it was more about a 'specialty' rather than Order (ie Gunnery skewed more combat vs administrative)
