One of my military buddies sent this to me.. It is a real hoot.. and some of it is true... :)
Marine Corps Rules:
- Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one.
- Decide to be aggressive enough, quickly enough.
- Have a plan.
- Have a back-up plan, because the first one probably won't work.
- Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
- Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun whose caliber does not start with a '4.'
- Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive.
- Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral &diagonal preferred.)
- Use cover or concealment as much as possible.
- Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours.
- Always cheat; always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose.
- In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived.
- If you are not shooting, you should be communicating your intention to shoot.
