My personal crudsade is against "posers" and "wannabes" in general and on these forums. (I'm always looking to see what the latest is on Larry Google.) I'm real careful about any of my own "sea stories" I tell to not blow 'em up too much. You know, "I cut myself with a paper clip and bled all over the commanding officer..." when in reality I didn't really cut myself, I just thought I did, I wasn't even near any paper clips, ad naseum...
I have a nephew that retired from the Marine Corps last summer (LtCol, helipcopter pilot, former sergeant of Marines). It was fun hear his complaints about some of the same $$%^#& stuff we *****ed about in the 1960s...
