people allways ask me about the difference and I have to say I miss the spirit of the corps, but it's the same amount of BS just in different form. Were the Marines have formations and fieldays the USAF has MS powerpoint and paperwork.
Similar experience. We had a little pow-wow up in Pacifica with a new group we partnered with - and bought 2 bottles of $30 / shot tequilla, I think it was PAtron Platnium. Anyway, of course it goes down the hatch, and everyone is like "Wolf, its sipping tequilla!" The 3 other Marines in the room from Secure Cognition do the same as me and we're looking at each other like "WTF is sipping tequilla."
So apart from abrasiveness and my tendancy to drool at lunch all over myself - your in good company. I'm just the youngest of the bunch and get nonstop **** as a result.
