OT: Army vs. Navy smack talk thread.

Submitted by NFG on
The second best rivalry in all of sports is played today, and in perfect smash mouth football conditions. Let the volleying of insults begin... Hey Navy, ISIS wants their girlfriend back when you're done with her.

Only 2 wins in the last 17 years against their rival, Navy.

Army's most recent period of glory years in terms of the rivalry was the 1990s.

 

Sound kinda familiar?

 

GO ARMY!

Army stands for Another Rejected Marine Yesterday. It is funny how Army talks shit knowing they go in after the Marines for sloppy seconds and clean up duty. Navy has been doing the Air Forces job since 1947.

As a former officer I can tell you we were in country for the iraq and afghanistan invasions for a while before either official invasion doing... stuff, and had to bunker down several times while the conventional troops rolled through because otherwise the idiots would shoot at us. I mean seriously, Have you ever seen a trio of Iraqi tacoma trd trucks with miniguns and some big gunslingers pulling real security? Nevermind the blonde hair, etc. How do you think you (marines) were able to roll over bridges that had previously had explosives ready to detonate once the americans pushed?

Also secured various DZ's in hostile areas so the marines could helo in, later on. Again marines claimed first on the ground.

Even had a marine squad tear into the side of our pickup across a road with small arms and saw fire. I was so pissed, we ran around out of their field of view (they were all focused on the truck), and came up behind them and asked for our truck back. Their butter bar was so busted for that one. 

Another fun fact since this is the talk trash thread: The only soldiers to get authorized combat dive badge were on my army team (some dumb marine unit lost a bunch of weapons trying to cross a river, and we were the only unit in country with our dive gear). The admiral who had to authorize our dive badges was SOOOOOOO pissed. (This was true at least until 2008, some navy team might have earned them after I left, not sure). 

Go Army!

Edit: all I was trying to say is the military's like a football team. Most people may not even know the names or coaching positions/player positions that are quite crutial, but they are all serving a strategic purpose and thats why this football team is the greatest.

every time there's a group of sailors at one end of the bar and a bunch of grunts at the other end, eventually they'll be in the middle breaking chairs over each other's heads.
