		<description>Good on ya guys! 

And on the morphin shot &quot;Combat humor&quot;, takes me back to my AF teaching days. I remember another instructor talking about this one guy that was teaching a chem warfare class &quot;in theater&quot; who happened to get a &quot;live&quot; injector mixed up with the &quot;training&quot; ones, with the same result. Those injectors have a spring loaded needle that shoots out extending about an inch and a half to penetrate the flesh. They extend with such force they will even go right through a wallet. Likewise, if you put the tapered end against your thumb, the needle will go right through it, the bone, your thumbnail, and out the other side and you get a useless little fountain out the end. The guy I&#039;m talking about remained &quot;a trooper&quot; and still continued with the training session before handing the class over to someone else on the break and seeking medical aid...:

&quot;DAMN that smarts!&quot; (To his students) &quot;Ya&#039; see that? That&#039;s why we&#039;re always such a pain butt in making sure you pay attention in this training. You got to make sure you slam the tapered part, Here!&quot; (points with other hand to indicate which is which, with the injector dangling) &quot;Into a large fleshy area. NOT the flat part, Here...&quot; 

Still it&#039;s kinda&#039; hard to remember all that when you have to worry about &quot;other&quot; projectiles zinging past your head.</description>

		<description>And yet the left calls our soldiers cowards, thugs, losers, etc. Sounds like projection to me. Let no one tell we don&#039;t have the best soldiers in the world. God bless them.</description>
