I put the story on my FB page, but basically these guys (Marine NCO and Navy/Marine junior officers) all worked with me at JUSMAG-P (Joint US Military Assistance Group-Philippines). We were all sitting at the same table, and between the pre-gaming and the open bar, everyone was pretty drunk. I was probably the least drunk because after about the fourth shot or so, I resorted to pouring the shots they kept bringing me into my iced tea glass. The Marines at the table told me they wanted to ask the general and the ambassador (next table over) to do shots. I told them words to the effect of "I don't think that's a good idea, but do what your rank can handle." They then went all ooh-rah and told me to take pics. And yes, both the ambo and the general thought it was great.
