Jimmy Stare in all his gloriness.

Had to work today. Americas birthday, and I had to work my shitty ass job. But this... This reminded me what I'm doing, why I'm doing it, and how little I comprehend about what is in store for me.

God bless America

Thanks for posting -

Powerful read. Highly recommended.
Almost sounds like an operator that I know.

Jimmy Stare was mostly at 3rd Recon on Oki during the 90/00's.

I know him through others that came from the Rock.

I wrote him an email and he is doing well.

In that case I've never met the man a day in my life

 

[8654Maine]

Nah, BK, you know many like him in the Suck.

 

[buzzkill.0621]

True
I'm in the community, but on the outside and I see and know the struggles he's talking about.
Was just asked why I want to do this job and if it was worth it the other day. People on the outside
don't completely understand and hell sometimes I don't have a clue, I just know I'm not ready
to give it up.

Fuck all what people think.

It is worth it. Until it isn't.

Enjoy the ride.

Like when the Gunny (?) is trying to bust his balls for the video camera.

Have to ask though, what is a Motard?
I assume it's a Marine thing.

A Marine who is over the top in the love and admiration for the Corps - I always liken them to the boots fresh out of MCT (Marine Combat Training) who would go to Ocean Side, get their bobby-badass tattoo and their ooh-rah jackets -

Ahhh, a TED (typical enlisted dude) in Naval Aviation/AF circles.

That and worse.

They give that motivated aura when higher ups are around.

But when shit gets real and folks need to suck it up and drive on, these fucking Motards are the first whining douchebags.

It's the difference between spit shine and faded jungle boots.

Motards were the "hard as woodpecker lips" Marines...until they actually had to do something hard or dangerous....

Then, they suddenly became the whiners, criers, and non-hackers.

They tended to irritate me to the core....

Doc, I may have to steal this line. Gold, pure friggin Gold!

He also spent some time at 1st Force before going over to PAO.
