Firstsergeantbrief 639x400
I found this humorous but a lot of truth in it as well. The list does not stop at 11, what is some of the funniest things you've heard?

sigh - Bn safety brief, Company safety brief, Platoon safety brief, Squad safety brief, and then the team leader has to "talk" to his men on a personal level - Don't get me wrong I completely understand why it needs to be done - and it is a pain that is self inflicted by the Soldiers, because sure enough, there will be that one guy that gets a DUI, or gets a drunk and disorderly, or rides a motorcycle without the proper safety equipment, or has a domestic altercation, or gets an STD - sometimes Joe like to complain about all the safety briefs but doesn't realize that the pain is self inflicted.

2. He's been in the army since Christ was a corporal.
3. It's beer-30.
4. Get your head out of your 4th point of contact.
5. There are few things a soldier has in this mans army, his foot locker is one and your sitting on mine.
6. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink!
7. If you don't feed me,pay me, or fuck me... I don't care what you have to say.

"Hey you!" Detail. You happen to be walking by and he grabs you for a work detail. That drove me nuts.
1sg showing up to the mess hall on Christmas Day telling us we had to "dress appropriate for dinner" (no sweats or t-shirts)

My First Sergeant always droned on and on and would finally say he's letting us go home early. (45 minutes after our usual COB)

If you drink don't drive if you drive don't drink. If you have sex with an unfamiliar sex partner use a condom.

Our version: If you drink, don't drive, If you drive, don't drink. Don't eat no diseased pussy, and don't fuck anything you wouldn't eat.
