Airborne, All The Way!!

[frisco-kid]

A paratrooper gets out of the Army after Nam and lives his life like the American dream.
When the war on Iraq comes around 40 years later, he goes down to the local recruiting station, and tells the recruiter, ?I want in, I wanna fight.?

But the recruiter says, ?Sorry man, you?re too old.?
?Fine,? the guy says. ?I?ll go to the Pentagon. I have a friend there. He?ll let me in!?
So he goes to the Pentagon and tells his friend, ?I want in, I wanna fight.?

But his friend says, ?Sorry Buddy, you?re too old.?
?Fine,? the trooper says. ?I?ll buy a boat and row to Iraq!?
So he goes out and buys himself a rowboat and starts rowing to Iraq, chanting ?Airborne, All The Way!? over and over again.

St. Peter sees all this and goes to God and says, ?Lord, what do I do to stop this guy??
God tells St. Peter, ?Why don?t you take his brain? It?s the root of all thought.?

So St. Peter takes the guy?s brain.
It doesn?t faze him. ?Airborne, All The Way!?
St. Peter then says, ?Now what?!?

God replies, ?Why don?t you take his heart? It?s the seat of all emotion.?
So St. Peter takes it. Doesn?t faze the guy. ?Airborne, All The Way!?

St. Peter says, ?Now what should I do??
God smiles and says, ?Take his balls.?

So St. Peter takes the guy?s balls.
The guy stops rowing, looks confused, turns his boat around, and begins chanting, ?Off we go, into the wild blue yonder??


Oh, lighten up Fly Boys. My son was in the Air Force and I'm proud of his service. It's not your fault you guys had it better than the Navy and you looked like bus drivers in your dress uniforms .

If that wasn't so funny I'd call in an air strike on your ass!

You Airborne guys are sure proud of the fact that you jumped out of perfectly good airplanes. Funny joke, thanks for sharing it.

I always like the fact that We(USAF) flew the Airborne guys at Bragg and Campbell into their drop zones and made the round trip back in that same airplane And didn't have to walk home afterwords Thank you for flying C130,141 and C17 Airways and for those really dedicated Airborne Troops that jumped out of C5's at High Alt

Straight Leg Infantry, if you ain't 11B you ain't nothin. Think I started a fire storm here. But Iiked your joke Frisco. My cousin John was in the AF at Phan Rang. He worked on weapons systems. My cousin Tommy was with the III MAF.

Tom,

Does that mean?
There are no women or eunuchs in the airborne?

or

Airborne folks don't need to have brains or hearts?

I'm so confused.
