Military Service Compared:  World War II and Today.
1945- Rifles were made of wood and steel, shot a .30 caliber bullet that
killed the enemy.
Now- Rifles are made of plastic and aluminum; shoot a .22 caliber bullet
that wounds the enemy.
1945- The winning side used a US made .45 Caliber pistol, the losers a
European 9mm. Now- We use a European 9mm pistol. Nobody uses the .45.
1945- If you said "damn," people knew you were annoyed and avoided you.
Now-
If you say "damn" you better be talking about a hydroelectric plant.
1945- NCOs’ had a typewriter on their desks for doing daily reports.
Now-
Everyone has an Internet computer, and they wonder why no work is
getting done.
1945- We painted pictures of pretty girls on airplanes to remind us of
home Now- We put the real thing in the cockpit.
1945- If you got drunk off duty, your buddies would take you back to
the barracks to sleep it off. Now- If you get drunk any time they slap you
in rehab and ruin your whole career.
1945- You were taught to aim at your enemy and shoot him. Now- You
spray 500 bullets into the brush, don't hit anything, and retreat because you are
out of ammo.
1945- Canteens were made out of steel. You could heat coffee or hot
chocolate in them. Now- Canteens are made of plastic. You can't heat
anything in them and they always taste like plastic.
1945- Officers were professional soldiers first. They commanded
respect.
Now- Officers are politicians first. They beg not to be given a wedgie.
1945- They collected enemy intelligence and analyzed it. Now- They
collect our pee and analyze it.
1945- If you don't act right, the commander might put you in the
stockade till you straighten up. Now- If you don't act right, they start a paper
trail that follows you forever.
1945- You slept in a barracks, like a soldier. Now- You sleep in a
dormitory, like a college kid.
1945- You ate in a Mess Hall. It was free and you could have all the
food you wanted.
Now- You eat in a dining facility. Every slice of bread or
pat of butter costs, and you can only have one.
1945- If you wanted to relax, you went to the Rec.Center, played pool,
smoked and drank beer. Now- You go to the Community Center and can
still play pool.
1945- If you wanted a beer and conversation you could go to the NCO or

Officers Club. Now- The beer will cost you $1.75, membership is forced,
and someone is watching how much you drink.
1945-The PX had bargains for GI's who didn't make much money. Now- You
can get better merchandise cheaper at Wal-Mart.
1945- If a general wanted to make a presentation he scribbled some
notes down and a corporal prepared a bunch of charts Now- The general
prepares his own charts, spending hours using Power Point.
1945- We could recognize the enemy by their Nazi helmets. Now- We are
wearing the Nazi helmets.
1945- We called the enemy things like "Krauts" and "Japs" because we
didn't like them. Now- We call the enemy things like "opposing forces" and
"aggressors" so we won't offend them.
1945- Victory was declared when the enemy was dead and all his things
were broken. Now- Victory is declared when the enemy says he is sorry.
1945- A commander would put his butt on the line to protect his people.
Now- A commander will put his people on the line to protect his butt.
1945- All you could think of was getting out and becoming a civilian
again.
Now- All you can think of is getting out and becoming a civilian again


PEACOATS:

From: Al (Cookie) Moore:

Mobile Riverine Force Association (MRFA)

 

You remember them... Those ton and a half monsters that took the annual production of thirty-five sheep to make. Those thick black rascals with black plastic buttons the size of poker chips. The issue coats that drove shore duty chief petty officers stark raving nuts if they caught you with the collar turned up or your gahdam hands in your pockets.
"Hey, you rubber sock, get those gahdam hands outta them damn pockets! Didn't they issue you black leather gloves?"

So, you took your hands out of your pockets and risked digital frostbite rather than face whatever the Navy had in store for violators of the 'No Gahdam Hands In Peacoat Pockets' policy. There's probably a special barracks in Hell full of old E-3s caught hitchiking in sub-zero weather with hands in peacoat pockets.
As for those leather gloves, one glove always went missing.
"Son, where in th' hell are the gloves we issued you?"
We??? I don't remember this nasty, ugly bastard being at Great Lakes when the 'jocks and socks' petty officers were throwing my initial issue seabag at me and yelling, "Move it!!"
As for the gloves, once you inadvertantly leave one glove on a whorehouse night table or on the seat of a Grayhound bus, the remaining glove is only useful if a tank rolls over the hand that fit the lost glove.
In the days long ago, a navy spec. peacoat weighed about the same as a flat car load of cinder blocks. When it rained, it absorbed water until your spine warped, your shins cracked and your ankles split. Five minutes standing in the rain waiting on a bus and you felt like you were piggy-backing the statue of liberty.
When a peacoat got wet, it smelled a lot like sheep dip. It had that wet wool smell, times three. It weighed three and a half tons and smelled like 'Mary had a little lamb's' gym shorts.
You know how damn heavy a late '50s peacoat was? Well, they had little metal chains sewn in the back of the collar to hang them up by. Like diluted navy coffee, sexual sensitivity instruction, comfortable air-conditioned topside security bungalows, patent leather plastic-looking shoes and wearing raghats configured to look like bidet bowls, the peacoat spec. has been watered down to the point you could hang them up with dental floss. In the old days, peacoat buttons and grocery cart wheels were interchangeable parts. The gear issued by the U.S. Navy was tough as hell, bluejacket-tested clothing with the durability of rino hide and construction equipment tires.
Peacoats came with wide, heavy collars. In a cold, hard wind, you could turn that wide collar up to cover your neck and it was like poking your head in a tank turret.
The things were warm, but I never thought they were long enough. Standing out in the wind in those 'big-legged britches' (bell bottoms), the wind whistled up your cuffs and took away body warmth like a thief.
But, they were perfect to pull over you for a blanket when sleeping on a bus or a bus terminal bench.

Every sailor remembers stretching out on one of those oak bus station pews with his raghat over his face, his head up against his AWOL bag and covered with his peacoat. There was always some 'SP' who had not fully evolved from apehood, who poked you with his billy bat and said,
"Hey, YOU!! Get up! Waddya think yer doin? You wanna sleep, get a gahdam room!"
Peacoats were lined with quilted satin or rayon. I never realized it at the time, but sleeping on bus seats and station benches would be the closest I would ever get to sleeping on satin sheets.
Early in my naval career, a career-hardened (lifer) first class gunner's mate told me to put my ID and liberty card in the inside pocket of my peacoat.
"Put the sonuvabitches in that gahdam inside pocket and pin the damn thing closed with a diaper pin. Then, take your heavy folding money and put it in your sock. If you do that, learn to never take your socks off in a cathouse. Them damn dockside pickpockets pat 'cha down for a  mpy wallet and they can relieve you of said wallet so fast you'll never know you've been snookered.
Only a dumbass idiot will clam-fold his wallet and tuck it in his thirteen button bellbottoms. Every kid above the age of six in Italy knows how to lift a wallet an idiot pokes in his pants. Those little bastards leard to pick sailor's pockets in kindergarten.
Rolling bluejackets is the national sport in Italy."
In WashingtonDC, they have a wonderful marble and granite plaza honoring the United States Navy. Every man or woman who served this nation in a naval uniform, owes it to himself or herself to visit this memorial and take their families.
It honors all naval service and any red-blooded American bluejacket or officer will feel the gentle warmth of pride his or her service is honored within this truly magical place.
The focal point of this memorial is a bronze statue of a lone American sailor. No crow on his sleeve tells you that he is non-rated. And, there are further indications that suggest maybe, once upon a time, the sculpturer himself may have once been an E-3 raghat.
The lad has his collar turned up and his hands in his pockets.
I'm sure the Goddess of the Main Induction nearly wets her panties laughing at the old, crusty chiefs standing there with veins popping out on their old, wrinkled necks, muttering,
"Look at that idiot sonuvabitch standing there with his collar up and his gahdam hands in his pockets. In my day, I would have ripped that jerk a new one!"
Ah, the satisfied glow of E-3 revenge.
Peacoats... One of God's better inventions.


The Amazing Chief:
A salesman drove into a small town where a circus was in process.
A sign read: Don't Miss “The Amazing Tugboat Chief".
The salesman bought a ticket and sat down.  There, on center stage, was a table with three walnuts on it. Standing next to it was an old Retired Chief (Boatswains Mate).
Suddenly, the old man dropped his pants, whipped out his huge male member and smashed all three walnuts with three mighty swings!  The crowd erupted in

applause as the elderly Chief was
carried off on the shoulders of the crowd.
Ten years later the
salesman visited the same little town and saw the
Faded sign for the same circus and the same sign "Don't Miss The Amazing Tugboat Chief".
He couldn't believe the old guy was still alive much less still doing
his act!  He bought a ticket.  Again, the center ring was illuminated. 
This time, however, instead of walnuts, three coconuts were placed on the table.
The old Chief stood before them, then suddenly drops his pants and
smashed the coconuts with three swings of his amazing member.
The crowd was flabbergasted; the salesman requested a meeting with him after the show.
"You're incredible!" he told the old Chief.  "But I have to know something.
You're older now, why switch from walnuts to coconuts?"
"Well," said the Chief, "My eyes ain't what they used to be!"

CPO's Prayer

Dear Lord:
So far today, God, I have lived my life as you would intend. I haven't lost my temper. 
I haven't screamed at anyone.
So far I have not even grabbed the Chief's Mess Cook by the throat, like yesterday.
I have said nothing insulting or humiliating to any of the junior officers.
I haven't bitched about the coffee, the ship's schedule, the watch bill or Saturday's Personnel Inspection.
I have told no lies.  I have not cheated at poker.
I have put no ship's tools in my personal toolbox.
In short God, I believe that so far today I have committed no grievous sins.
Thank you, God, for helping me to stay righteous so far.
But Lord, it's almost 0600 and in a little while I'm going to roll out of my bunk.
After that I think I will need a lot more help.
Amen

VETERANS BAR!
Four retired Navy Chiefs are walking down the street window shopping.
Then they turn a corner and see a sign that says "Veterans Bar" over the doorway of an entry into an
establishment that doesn't look all that well kept up. They look at each other then go in.
The old bartender says in a voice that carries across the room, "Come on in and let me pour one for you!
What'll it be, gentlemen?"
There seems to be a fully stocked bar so the men all ask for a martini.
In short time the bartender serves up 4 iced martinis - shaken not stirred and says,
"That'll be 40 cents total, please."
The four Chiefs stare at the bartender for a moment then look at each other -
they can't believe their good luck.
They pay the 40 cents, finish their martinis and order another round.
Again, four excellent martinis are produced with the bartender again saying,
"That's 40 more cents altogether, please.
" They pay the 40 cents but their curiosity is more than they can stand.
They've each had two martinis and so far they've
spent less than a dollar together.
Finally one of the men says, "How can you afford to serve martinis as good as these for a dime a piece?"
The bartender replies, "No doubt you've noticed the decor in here.
And the outside ain't nothin' to write home about.
I don't waste money on that stuff. But, here's my story.
I'm a retired Master Chief Boatswain's Mate and I always wanted to own a bar.
Last year I hit the lottery for $45 million and decided to open this place for real veterans.
Every drink costs a dime -- wine, liquor, beer, all the same."
"Wow. That's quite a story!" says one of the Navy Chiefs.
The four of them sip at their martinis and can't help but notice three other guys at the end of the bar
who don't have a drink in front of them and hadn't ordered anything the whole time the Chiefs were there.
The Chief finishes his martini and, gestures at the three at the end of the bar without drinks
and asks the bartender,
"What's with them?"
The bartender says, "Oh, those are retired Marines. They're waiting for happy hour."
