So I was having a funny conversation with a roommate today and afterwards I was thinking about all the hilarious conversations and debates that go on during deployment. &nbsp;It started when I was telling him how I dropped my dog tags in a porta-john once, and I was just like, "Glad I got two pairs of those!" &nbsp;We were discussing what we would/wouldn't retrieve out of a porta-john if we dropped it inside. &nbsp;I don't know about you, but if I dropped my ID card in a nasty deployment porta-john, I'm gonna say I lost it and take that 4856! &nbsp;My roommate said he wouldn't even get his wedding ring. &nbsp;<br><br>What are some of your memorable deployment conversations, just BSing with your peers? Bonus points if you can contribute to the porta-john scenario!

PFC Dydasco,


Here is by FAR the funniest deployment conversation I've ever been apart of, let me paint the picture!


Iraq, September 2010


My buddy (LITERALLY A DAY OLD SGT) and I (A DAY OLD SPC) are sitting in our shop playing WWE on X-Box. We were apart of a 4 man commo team that supported our BDE CDR at our COB, but also had an Infantry BN with us, and with that, come hardcore, tough as nails CSMs and 1SGs.


While Im kicking his a** in WWE, he goes "I've got to take a sh*t so bad, but were all out of TP!" So I say, just go hit up the porta-johns outside the compound, its right there. He says f&ck it, and grabs a stack of brown paper towels we use in the latrines and jets out the door.


About 15 minutes later, he comes back and says "Oh sh*t, I think Im in trouble!" He goes "I went to the latrine inside the TOC (Latrines had stalls with NO DOORS and NO TOILET SEATS, so all you could do was piss)..So I respond with..soooooo how did you...ya know ? He goes "I hovered over the shitter!!" Im laughing my ass off...then he says, right when I dropped a shit, a MAJ (BN XO) walked in, looks right at me while Im hovering and goes "Who the f&ck are you?!" My buddy tells him who he is, and the MAJ walks off. So Im like "Well, if he walked off your good, cause a MAJ would've done SOMETHING by now!" No shit, the second I get done saying that, the biggest, meanest 1SG I've ever seen in my life kicks the door in and bellows "WHO THE F&&K IS SGT WHITTEN?!?!" My buddy goes "I am, 1SG!" 1SG yells as if his feelings were hurt, "You took a shit in my latrine!!!! GO PICK THAT SHIT UP WITH YOUR F&CKING HANDS DIRTBAG AND GET THAT SHIT OUT OF MY TOILET! YOU DIDNT EVEN FLUSH ASSHOLE!!!!" As soon as 1SG left, I about died laughing my ass off as I watched my buddy literally pick up his own shit with his bare hands and take it to a dumpster!

I remember back in 2004 I had just came back from a recover mission and was pretty tired. I used the porta-jon before heading into the tent. I still had all my gear on and had my weapons. While I was in the porta-jon the magazine from my 9mm fell out of my pocket and into the pot!! The next day. I walked into the BMO's office for a maintenance meeting and he was cleaning up a 9mm magazine. Not even thinking about the day before, I jokingly said to him "plan on killing someone today Sir". He said no, I found this magazine out next to the porta-jon and it looks like it has been laying there for a while but when I took the rounds out they were wet!! I didn't have the heart to tell him the story of the day before.

Submarines used a green 8"x11" logbook (one in almost every space) labeled with one version or another of the title "Famous Naval Sayings".  After a particularly humorous (especially embarrassing) incident, someone would announce "Well, that's goin' in The Green Book."

You might not like what you read in your performance reports, but you'd recover from it.  On the other hand you absolutely dreaded being written up in "The Green Book" because those quotes would follow you around the fleet for the rest of your career.

My favorite quote was "Hang on!"  Unfortunately I was written up for "Lower the damn scopes":
