Mixed feelings about someone with a Marine Raiders tattoo.

Here's a solution. Mind your own fucking business.

Fuck a duck, Fucci! I'll give you credit for throwing the correct terminology around, the way you write I pegged you as a grizzled old vet. Did you ask your recruiter what he thought?

Absolutely agree.
Does anyone else find the irony of a wanna-be civilian calling out a Marine for a tattoo?!

You didn't even throw out a disclaimer that you are not, in fact, a Marine yet...which would have made your post more legitimate. I would recommend keeping your SOF aspirations limited to personal conversation, your buddy to the left and right don't care how awesome you are...and if you drill that idea into everyone's head to make yourself seem better than your wrong. Your a Martial Arts Instructor? Awesome, don't advertise that either. This is gold brother, I got my ego smashed in several times early in my career because I was never taught humility...I learned it the hard way. It's all about your boys to the left and right. Remember that.

Fox1371, no. He said he was OTH. I asked why, he shrugged it off. He said 3 deployments as a Communications Sergeant. Iraq, Afghanistan, and Somalia. But like Teufel said there wasn't any Marines in on that rescue operation in Somalia. He was in for 6 years and has 4 ribbons on his chest. Two of which I can identify Navy Sea Service Ribbon and National Defense Medal.

8654Maine, I asked here first because I did not want to offend someone I did not know over asking about a tattoo. Now everything seems weird that he said. I apologize if that offends anyone. But hell, I like to know who I am around.

ordman, my job in martial arts instructor at the time. I'm not trying to appear a badass. Once again, apologizes if it was taken that way.

Enough.
