  1. Not completely accurate as i served 2 tours in the late 80's and early 90's with a large tattoo of a semi auto pistol and the words "No Job Too Tough….No Fee To High" tattooed on the back of my hand. Only twice was it ever even noticed. I was on the Unit honor guard and asked to cover it with camo for parade duties. Other then that a Drill instructor on Ft. Knox asked to see it and showed me the tattoo he had on the back of his hand!

  2. 4:13 "All Hands to Bathe" is a Royal Navy tradition where a ship stops, and the crew is invited to swim in the sea. Often jumping from the main deck. It originated from the need for sailors to wash in the absence of sufficient fresh water for hygiene on long voyages. Although hygiene is no longer a problem on modern warships, the tradition continues today as a morale-boosting activity.

  3. Those are good rules to live by I still use them today and I've been outside out of the Air Force for 30 years And you left out some rules too how about PDA no Personal Display of Affection you can say nothing about that No holding hands no kissing in uniform
