Well... I love a man in uniform, any uniform. Navy, Army, Air Force, Marines. Not postal service though because for a complete uniform there needs to be a hat. And I'm not prejudice about which branch of the military either. And because of that, I may have loaned the sailor $75.00 myself.

Don't know, I was an Airedale.

Herd it said that a sub goes down with 200 crew men and comes back with 100 happy couples?

What's long, hard and filled with Sea Men? A submarine!

Oh Sure, now a sand crab chimes in!
Just remember that the Airedale is called the KING of the Terriers!

Airdale: A sailor who works on or around aircraft.
Flat Top, Roof Rat, Ships Company Air-Dale none the less!

Sand crab, sand crab.

So now I've learned something new about the Navy. Thanks for the info. I will try to retain the information in case it ever comes up in conversation.

Dear Lass, I'd have to say, yes! No land loving sand crab is going to pick on us Old Sea Dog Shellbacks and not get a rattle or two from Davy Jone's Locker! Beware the rath of Neptune!

OUTFIT??? Glad you corrected yourself to mean a uniform steeped in Tradition and Pride. Just cause you can find water doesn't make you a sailor! I'm also gald you can find a sailor anywhere!
