And I'm all, "Oorah! CPL!" He just - joking- shook his head. Ahh, good times

^^ lol; <:salute:590153077991014402>

Yes sir

Well, we'd served together for awhile at that point - he'd gotten promoted ahead of me.

Also, Oorah ends up being the internal moto slang way of saying, "Aye, aye."

Which is to say, "Recieved and understood."

Typically, the syntax is. "<Repeat Order> , aye"

To insure the order was understood correctly

Nah, ain't got time for that.. just the acknowledgment and go unless there's any questions.

in the Navy i mean

Ah, rgr.

“The brave die first”
Interesting. You know, if bravery had a genetic element... two back to back world wars might have very well eliminated it from the west.

I am yet to sleep

i was meant to be up at 8

I think the dum usually die first unfortunately

Cannon-fodder

the lord has forsaken me

The Corps was more immediate action oriented.. which is why the convo the other day that got into Orders got my head spinning. Orders are things like, "Go take that hill." Or "set up the equipment for x Marines." Which is then dispersed and broken down to various tasks.

Yeah, but bravery doesn't prohibit idiocy.

i would imagine so. like i said earlier, i have seen enough to know there just really isn't a comparison

differnent time preference

It's the situational requirements of the given missions that change that pacing.

Bravery is to idiocy as genius is to madness.

sounds about right

Success defines both.

This is a fair assessment.

Success differentiates both

"Fortune Favors the Bold"

Heh, that same line had come to mind.

Or that one Batman series that was mediocre.

But I'd cut my teeth on the 90s Batman Animated series.

What’s the difference between prudent contemplation and negligent hesitation? Whatever comes next.

That's not how this works.

This is my territory Muten

'negligent hesistation'?

Basically, stalling too long.

Thinking so long that the vital moment passes you.

More like 'analysis paralysis"
