Another touching "teacher story"!!!!

 

The Marine Pilot The teacher gave her fifth grade class an assignment:  Get their parents to tell them a story with a moral at the end of it.  The next day, the kids came back and, one by one, began to tell their stories.  There were all the regular types of stuff:  Spilled milk and pennies saved.  But then the teacher realized, much to her dismay, that only Janie was left.  "Janie, do you have a story to share?"  'Yes ma'am.  My daddy told me a story about my Mommy.  She was a Marine pilot in Desert Storm, and her plane got hit.  She had to bail out over enemy territory, and all she had was a flask of whiskey, a pistol, and a survival knife.  She drank the whiskey on the way down so the bottle wouldn't break, and then she parachuted right into the middle of 20 Iraqi troops. She shot 15 of them with the pistol, until she ran out of bullets, killed four more with the knife, till the blade broke, and then she killed the last Iraqi with her bare hands."  ''Good Heavens,' said the horrified teacher.  What did your Daddy tell you was the moral to this horrible story?"  "Don't MESS  with Mommy when she's been drinking."      I love these touching stories!

A former Sergeant, having served his time with the Marine Corps, took a

new job as a school teacher, but just before the school year started

he injured his back.

 

He was required to wear a plaster cast around the upper part of his

body. Fortunately, the cast fit under his shirt and wasn't

noticeable.

 

On the first day of class, he found himself assigned to the toughest

students in the school. The smart ass punks, having already heard the

new teacher was a former Marine, were leery of him and decided to see

how tough he really was, before trying any pranks.

 

Walking confidently into the rowdy classroom, the new teacher opened

the window wide and sat down at his desk.

When a strong breeze made his tie flap, he picked up a stapler and

promptly stapled the tie to his chest.

 

... Dead silence...

He had no trouble with discipline all year.

Great pictures.  The aircraft look so graceful yet so lethal at the same time.  What a combination.  Say your prayers now cause things are about to change.

This may not be directly related to Navy matters, but as admins we do get a number of support questions about running NavyDads on mobile devices....in particular I thought this might address some Blackberry tech support issues:

Our son is officially assigned to the USS Mason DDG-87. I have Dad's Tin Can Sailor's cap ready for him when he comes home before deployment.
