Nonnahob is a product of the Detroit public schools.  He can cut a kilo of coke so that it's most profitable and hide a gun used in a drive by so no one will ever find it, but reading is not his forte.

It's so damn annoying to misspell things when one is calling others dumb!

you do realize you're going to have to explain forte to him, right?  otherise he's going to think it's an old English structure made out of sofa cushions and blankets.


and by old English I'm not talking about the 40's.

So I got a chance to speak with Kato's commanding officer, and apparently the eye injury wasn't _exactly_ as he described it.

Spoiler for In Katos mind...:

Spoiler for what really happened...:

Fixed the links. Enjoy!

LOL! 

In my defense, that orange cone took some hostile fire and it was my duty to "carry" it out of the danger zone

edit: kudos to you for finding some military guys that actually look like me....for better or worse

[Harkonis]

the one with the puppy looks a bit more like you

My humour has depth. It also has two U's.

Oh lord, Detroit Public Schools? Come on now! I grew up two hours from Detroit!

Reading's not my forte... this is my forte.

Not really though.

and?

You rode the short bus into Detroit - with your helmet on.

Today is a sad day.  As I slowly make the transition from Marine to Soldier I took a pic of myself wearing the Army uniform for the first time

[Purge]

Why the transition? They found out you were a bed-wetter?

[USMC Kato]

Naw, the Marine Corps won't let me use my Ghost Pro perk anymore 




The reason the Air Force, Army, Navy and Marines bicker amongst themselves is that they don't speak the same language. For instance, take the simple phrase "secure the building".

The Army will post guards around the place.
The Navy will turn out the lights and lock the doors.
The Marines will kill everybody inside and set up a headquarters
The Air Force will take out a 5 year lease with an option to buy.

So tell us, in laymans terms (aka "secure the building" means wrapping a warm towel around it and serving it a nice cup of tea), why are you being transitioned, and how does that change your job? What are the pros/cons?

And what was it like sleeping with the wife of your commanding officer?

To me, "Secure the building" will always mean something like this:



I've been deployed in 8 combat zones since 1994 so the idea of ending my career by just instructing/teaching young Rangers seemed like a great option for me to be with my family. 

Pros:
Get to keep my rank
Non-Deployable MOS
Better equipment
More family programs
Get to raise my son to be an elite ninja like me


Cons:
The end of my combat arms career
Army uniform (too much velcro!!! The whole country of Afghanistan would hear me if I rubbed up against a tree)
FT Benning is nice, but I'm not used to living in Georgia
Training hours are kinda crazy

[drifter]

I live a bit north of Atlanta so if you ever get up this way drop me a message.

Oh and my commanding officer's wife? I've had better

Hey Kato, I'm going to post that comment on your facebook okay?

[CeeKay]

so are you going to change your name?  drop the USMC?

[Purge]

It's pronounced "lef-tenant". Do that at work, I'm sure the US Army loves it.

[USMC Kato]

Once a Marine always a Marine

[Harkonis]

you can't shake the stupid off, once it's on there, it's on there for good

gotta give the Marines credit though, they are an optimistic bunch and took a negative and spun it in a good way!

[Teggy]

"Army Kato" doesn't really have the same ring to it.

Maybe "Army Guy Kato".

While driving?

Or the AZN either.  \ /

You take the blue cell phone, the story ends.  You take the red cell phone, you come with me and we see how deep the foxhole goes.

[PeteRock]

Is that your "I'm a badass" photo, or did you inadvertently post your Jersey Shore audition photo?

[CeeKay]

dude, don't knock Magnum.  it's his best look since Blue Steel.

I'm surrounded by savages

savages?  i think we were being quite nice, all things considering. 



so, how fast were you going at the time?

[CeeKay]

driving without any hands on the steering wheel?  man, you so crazy! 

[rickfc]

He IS AZN after all. He's got a reputation to live up to. 

[USMC Kato]

Even with my eyepatch on I drive with my eyes closed.
