I noticed the other day that Boots graduating from Great Lakes get a participation ribbon just for not screwing up and graduating. That is some high level BS right there.

Honor Graduates? Those are the Seamen that can take it all the way down to the base without choking.Actually, I looked it up: from what I can tell, only the Honor Graduates get that ribbon in the Navy.
On the E/W German border we used to say we ate “BMG’s”I think I left Kosovo the day before the Burger King arrived, about four months after we set up Camp Bondsteel. Good to know their BK reaction time has improved, lol.
I was also on the border, and on various field exercises we would toss a couple of MREs and five bucks to the nearest kindern, and within 15 minutes they'd return with take-out containers of food and a couple of beers.On the E/W German border we used to say we ate “BMG’s”
