What Snuffy Ain't Allowed To Do!

Every now and then I think back to my time in the military, and law enforcement,....and reflect upon all the things that Snuffy could not do.

Skippy was a US Army Psy War Soldier who encapsulated his service by listing some of the things "Snuffy" was not allowed to do while serving.

I would have loved to have had "Skippy" in my unit from the sound of his list of entries although I would have preferred he be a peer rather than a subordinate for obivous reasons.

I know for sure I served with some of his relatives who led people like me into the paths of ritual suicide for infractions of the Army standards of Good Order and Discipline.

Skippy''s List annotated

)Warning.....content involves SAS, Royal Marines, Officers, NCO's, Paratroopers, and loosely connected Miltary Aviation....and full appreciation of Snuffy demands one possess a sense of humor)

101 and 145/146 made me giggle. I would have loved to get away with 31 however . . .

Loved it. May I add "Must not salute the CO's dog (especially when the CO is approaching from the other direction.", and 173a "Tippy tippy top secret is not a security classification."

Entertaining reading!(even my wife thought some were funny!) I wonder how many people on here have broken one or more of the “guidelines “ set out in the list?

Combination of senility, bad eyes, and auto mis-spell tripped me up!

Actually I was just wating to see who would spot that slight error.

Despite a desire to hog the CST for a bit longer, I'll judge sometime this evening (Z).
