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. 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!" We were discussing what we would/wouldn't retrieve out of a porta-john if we dropped it inside. 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! My roommate said he wouldn't even get his wedding ring. <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!

This is currently my third tour, and I have had some really great conversations with some stellar personnel. My last tour I had I would have some great conversations with my XO and BN Chaplain. I worked as a PZ performing battlefield circulation, and as such the "terminal" we used had a few amenities like a TV, DVD player, etc. I, being the science and space nerd I am, bought a few seasons of the universe from one of the Local National's shops, and would watch them avidly. My XO, being like in nature, started into some of the conversations he had a college. He started into a few, and began discussing how "if a cat always lands on its feet, and toast always lands butter side down, what would happen if you dropped a cat with a piece of toast tied to its back butter side outward?" This conversation continued for about 45 minutes until his bird arrived.
This tour, we are in the midst of a "Superhero Fantasy League." It acts a lot like Fantasy Football, but we use Superheroes, create a bracket, and have conversations about who would win one on one between those two. That makes for some fun.
