I could just see his lard ass in front of a Marine drill instructor,
explaining how to re-design the M-16, or expounding on infant formula
and breast feeding.


Bwaahwhahwhahwh!

I can see the drill instructor collapsing in tears, too.

I'm thinking we should rename him Gomer, now.

Too much credit.

Gomer actually made it through basic.

I was an Army OCS TAC (Drill instructor for officers) - Sadly I saw
his kind from time to time. We were always more than happy to keep
their stay short -- usually 2 hours -- 90 minutes of that time spent
outprocessing.
