Just thought I'd share a bit of "Gunner Pride" and let those that don't know some General Rules for working with or being around Navy Gunners :biglaugh:
Rules for Working with Gunner’s Mates
RULE # 1: Always trust a Gunner’s Mate… they only lie for your own good.
RULE # 2: Never under any circumstances leave a woman unattended while there are Gunner’s Mates in the vicinity. This includes grandmas and legal aged young Women.
RULE # 3: Foul language is trait inherent to Gunner’s Mates. Please don’t be
offended by it; they don’t realize they can be offensive unless they try.
RULE # 4: Do not turn your back on an open or unopened alcoholic beverage.
RULE # 5: Always let a Gunner’s Mate drive, they know where they are going.
NOTE: Unfortunately they don’t always know where they are at the time.
RULE # 6: Never let a Gunner’s Mate file anything!
RULE # 7: Do not attempt to scare a Gunner’s Mate; you never know what they may have in their hands…i.e. guns, munitions, toolas or beer.
RULE # 8: Gunner’s Mates always say what’s on their minds, Feel free to be
offended when you leave.
RULE # 9: Do not embarrass Gunner’s Mate. They do it quite well on their own.
RULE # 10: WARNING: If a Gunner’s Mate breaks into a dead run for no apparent
reason try to keep up.
RULE # 11: Gunner’s Mates are very supportive of the self-help program.
RULE # 12: Tuxedoes, Winter Service Blues, suits, and shined boots/oxfords and collard shirts are not
acceptable dress for Gunner functions.
RULE # 13: Unattended women are always welcomed at Gunner’s Mates social
functions. (refer to rule # 2).
RULE # 14: If it don’t go “BOOM” it’s an FC problem.
RULE # 15: Gunner’s Mates are the most loyal in the military. Treat them fairly, treat them well, and they’ll kill or die for you. They may even invite you to an
Ordnance social function.
CHEERS!
