We all know that when it comes to military jokes and amazing stories, military folk have corned the market; some are old classic and some are more recent, but one thing's for certain, there's some real gems out there... so, what's your best joke or "sea story?" It could be on the topic of one of your sister services (a little light ribbing is ok of course, we're all family here), or perhaps a classic yarn about a "brand spankin' new" Lieutenant or "salty" old Chief, maybe even a humorous or entertaining story passed down through the generations.  Written descriptions, photos, links, slideshows, videos, etc. are all welcome, whatever way you have to tell your story or joke is absolutely ok, just have one basic rule here, let's try to keep it within the bounds of good taste; so, put on your thinking caps folks, and let's have some fun here... I know this'll be a great time; thank you for all that your do, and... see you all in the discussion threads!!

<div id="post_message_173409" sizset="23" sizcache="1">A sailor in a bar leans
over to the guy next to him and says, ''Wanna hear a MARINE joke?'' <br>The guy
next to him replies, ''Well, before you tell that joke, you should know
something. I'm 6' tall, 200 lbs, and I'm a MARINE. The guy sitting next to me is
6'2'' tall, weighs 225, and he's a MARINE. The fella next to him is 6'5'' tall,
weighs 250, and he's also a MARINE. Now, you still wanna tell that joke?''

There was a group of Officers stationed in Germany and they decided to take leave and travel across Germany on the train and visit a historic area.  The Officers arrived the train station and each one approached the ticket counter and purchased their own ticket.  While waiting for the train they saw a group of NCOs arrive and only one of them approached the ticket counter and purchased a ticket.  The officers were in wonderment and talked about the NCOs and were trying to figure out what they were up to.  The train arrived and the Officers and all of the NCOs boarded the train.  After a few minutes of the train departing the conductor was making his way through the cars checking tickets.  The NCOs, noticing the conductor approaching, get up and run into the bathroom.  The conductor checked all of the Officers' tickets then moves to the back of the car ang knocks on the bathroom door and says "Ticket please".  A ticket them appeared from under the door and the conductor checked it and slid it back under the door and moved on to the next car.  The Officers were amazed at the events that transpired and decided that upon their return they would utilize the same plan that the NCOs used. 

 

A few days had passed and the Officers leave was ending and they arrived at the train station.  Only one of the Officers approached the ticket booth and purchased a ticket and returned to his group.  A few moments later the NCOs arrived at the train station and not one of them approached the ticket booth to purchase a ticket.  The Officers were totally confused and could not figure out what the NCOs were up to.  As the train arrived all of the Officers and all of the NCOs had boarded the train.  After the train departed the station they noticed the conductor checking tickets and on their way to their car.  The Officers and NCOs noticing this left their seats and rushed to the bathrooms except for one NCO.  The Officers were in one bathroom and the NCOs were in the other.  The remaining NCO approached the bathroom the Officers were in and knocked on the door and said "ticket please".

<span style="font-family: arial;">An officer in a hot air balloon realised he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted an NCO below.<br><br>He descended a bit more and shouted, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."<br><br>The NCO below replied, "You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude."<br><br>"You must be an NCO ," said the officer.<br><br>"I am," replied the NCO, "How did you know?"<br><br>"Well," answered the officer, "everything you told me is technically correct, but I've no idea what to make of your information and the fact is that I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help at all. If anything, you've delayed my trip."<br><br>The NCO below responded, "You must be an officer."<br><br>"I am," replied the officer, "but how did you know?"<br><br>"Well," said the NCO, "you don't know where you are or where you're going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise which you've no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow it's my fault."</span>

God was out admiring his creation one day when he looked down upon a lake and saw an Army Ranger training in an assualt raft.  As he moved closer, he could see the muscular Ranger propelling the craft at an amazing rate and chanting "Get the mission done!  Get the mission done!" in time with the oar strokes. 

  

God said "WOW!  I  created a truly amazing creature when I made the Army Ranger . . . but I wonder how he would perform if he was a little less intelligent?"  So God removed half his brain and left. 

  

The next morning, God returned to the lake to find the Ranger rowing away and chanting "Get the mission done!  Get the mission done!"

  

"Incredible!"  God said.  "With half a brain he is STILL amazing! . . . but I wonder how he would do with no brain?"  So God removed the other half.

  

The next morning, God returned to the lake and found him rowing away but now his cadance had changed, "From the halls of Montazuuuma, to the shores of Tripoliii!"

By the way, it took me awhile to remember one that I liked that was actually 'family friendly'.

 

And to our Marine brothers: all in fun!  I worked with 1st Marines in Iraq and I'd go to war (or out partying) with them anytime!

A novice drill instructor at Fort Jackson, S.C., firs assignment was to escort new recruits to the mess hall. After everyone had made it through the chow line, he sat them down and told them, "There are three rules in this mess hall: Shut up! Eat up! Get up!"Checking to see that he had everyone's attention, he asked, "What is the first rule?" Much to the amusement of the other instructors, 60 privates yelled in unison, "Shut up, Drill Sergeant!"

Back when the Army was forcing discharged vets back in no matter how big they were, whenever someone was talking about how big they were I would say

"He can't be that big, he had his top off and the tag said it was a medium"

 They wouldn't believe me

"Yeah, it was a Medium.  There was a GP in front of it, not sure what that was about"

You kids may not get this joke but it KILLED back in the day.

A bunch of brass decided to have an exercise to see how long it would take for each of the services to secure Pentagon.

The Air Force went first, it took 16 hours, and the Pentagon was completely secured.

The Army was next, it took 10 hours to completely secure the building.

Next, came the Marine Corps. It took 2 hours.

Last came the Navy...an E-3 went out to the door with a piece of paper, on it was written "Secured", and taped it to the door. It took 2 minutes...

So an 2LT and a SGT in his platoon were going TDY to another post. DTS in its infinite wisdom decided it was cheapest to travel by train. As the young soldiers are boarding their car, they can't help but notice a beautiful young woman and her grandmother climbing aboard. As they take their seats it turns out the the young lady is seated directly across from the SGT. They exchange a few flirtatious glances and smirks. Eventually the train goes into a rather long tunnel. A shuffle of feet was heard followed by a loud smooching sound, and the sound of a bare hand striking flesh. A second shuffle of feet follows and the train once again becomes lit. The grandmother thinks to herself, that NCO sure has some nerve to come up and kiss my granddaughter like that,  I'm glad she has the decency to slap him for being too forward. The young lady thinks to herself, man that was the best kiss I ever had from such a cute man. It's an awful shame nana had to slap him like that. The LT thinks to himself, man that NCO is fearless, I just wish that broad had better aim and didn't hit me instead of him. The SGT sits back and thinks to himself, this is the best day of my life. Got to kiss the most beautiful girl I've ever seen, and i got to slap the daylights out of my LT!

(Story)

One day there was a field problem.

The soldiers had been on the field with out taking a shower or changing their under wears for a very long time.

Moral was low, because of this.

The 1st SGT was concern about the moral of his company since their was no water to take a shower.

the 1st SGT tries to come up with a solution so he goes to sleep that night.

The next morning, the 1st SGT brings the company to a formation.

(End of story)


1st SGT:" Company Atten Shunn!"

1st SGT: "At easy"


1st SGT: " I have some good news and some bad news"


1st SGT: "The good news is that we get to change under wears"

Unit: yells " YEAAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhh"


1st SGT: "The bad news is, 1st platoon, change under wears with 2nd platoon and 3rd platoon change under wears with 4th platoon".

A battalion of marines was on a beach doing a PT workout when the CO of the battalion looked up and saw a lone army ranger standing at attention at the top of a hill.
The CO was curious so he sent a marine up to see what was going on.
As the marine approached the ranger sprinted into the woods, and the marine followed. Yelling and screaming could be heard coming from the woods, seconds later the Ranger stepped out and stood back at attention.
The CO was still curious so he sent a squad up to investigate.
The ranger ran into the woods and after some yelling and screaming, came back out and stood at attention again.
Now the CO was angry so he sent an entire Platoon up to the top of the hill. The ranger ran into the woods.
He emerged moments later after some more yelling and screaming with no sign of the marines anywhere.
The CO had had enough, he sent the entire battalion of marines charging up the hill.
The ranger ran into the woods. More yelling and screaming and this time some gunfire. Finally, a terribly wounded marine crawled out of the woods and reported back to the CO.
The CO inquired "Do you mean to tell me that one army ranger destroyed an entire battalion of marines!?"
The marine replied "No sir, it was a trick. There were two of them.
