....continues.

A Marine and a sailor were in the bar arguing over which was the superior service.

After a swig of beer, the Marine said, We had Iwo Jima .

Arching eyebrows, the sailor said, We had the Battle of Midway.

Not entirely true," said the Marine. Some of those pilots were Marines. Henderson Field on Guadalcanal was named after a Marine 
pilot killed at the Battle of Midway.

Taken aback, the sailor said, Point taken.

Then the Marine added, We were born at Tun Tavern.

The sailor replied, We had John Paul Jones.

The argument continued until the sailor came up with what he thought was the topper: The Navy invented sex.

The Marine didn't blink.

Well, that may be true, but the Marines introduced it to women.

I love that joke, but I love the Navy more.

Why?

Because they signed every paycheck the Marine Corps ever gave me.

Kaffee: Lt. Kendrick... can I call you Jon?

Lt. Kendrick: No, you may not.

Kaffee: Have I done something to offend you?

Lt. Kendrick: No, I like all you Navy boys. Every time we've gotta go someplace and fight, you fellas always give us a ride.

A Sailor and a Marine are using adjacent urinals. The Sailor finishes up first, and as he's washing his hands, the Marine heads toward the door. The Sailor looks at the Marine and says "You know, in the Navy, they teach us to wash up after using the bathroom." The Marine says "Yeah. In the Marines, they teach us not to piss on our berkeleying hands."

One of those barrel chested tough Marines walked into my office the other day spouting off about how the Marines were tough and us AF zipper suited sky gods were all wussies.

I said "Dude!....SHHHH, it's our naptime."
