Koogs:

Remember Murphy's Laws of Combat!

Oh, and happy birthday.

Jack

And some of my Murphy's faves:

- Try to look unimportant, they may be low on ammo.
- If you can't remember, then the claymore IS pointed at you.
- Never stand when you can sit, never sit when you can lie down, never stay awake when you can sleep.
- If at first you don't succeed, call in an air-strike.
- Field experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
- The perfect officer for the job will transfer in the day after that billet is filled by someone else.
- No OPLAN ever survives initial contact. (my personal favorite)
- The side with the simplest uniforms wins.
- The burst radius of a hand grenade is always one foot greater than your jumping range.
- Density of fire increases proportionally to the curiousness of the target. (this one always makes me laugh)
- The self-importance of a superior is inversely proportional to his position in the hierarchy (as is his deviousness and mischievousness).
- Whenever you drop your equipment in a fire-fight, your ammo and grenades always fall the farthest away, and your canteen always lands at your feet. (In my experience, it's not the canteen - it's that big 48 oz plastic coffee cup you carried all the way from the 7-11 in Miami.)

I'm sure Koogs knows most of these but thought some of you other guys might enjoy them.
