Frivolous Friday Funny.......
Useful Military Warnings:
1. "Aim towards the Enemy". - Instruction printed on U.S. Rocket Launcher
2. "When the pin is pulled, Mr. Grenade is not our friend." - U.S. Army
3. "Cluster bombing from B-52s is very, very accurate. The bombs are guaranteed to always hit the ground." - U.S.A.F. Ammo Troop
4. "If the enemy is in range, so are you." - Infantry Journal
5. "A slipping gear could let your M203 grenade launcher fire when you least expect it. That would make you quite unpopular in what's left of your unit." - Army's magazine of preventive maintenance
6. "It is generally inadvisable to eject directly over the area you just bombed." - U.S. Air Force Manual
7. "Try to look unimportant; they may be low on ammo." - Infantry Journal
8. "Tracers work both ways." - U.S. Army Ordnance
9. "Five-second fuses only last three seconds." - Infantry Journal
10. "Bravery is being the only one who knows you're afraid." - Col. David Hackworth
11. "If your attack is going too well, you're probably walking into an ambush." - Infantry Journal
12. "No combat-ready unit has ever passed inspection." - Joe Gay
13. "Any ship can be a minesweeper ... once." - Anonymous
14. "Never tell the Platoon Sergeant you have nothing to do." - Unknown Army Recruit
15. "Don't draw fire; it irritates the people around you." - Your Buddies
16. "If you see a bomb technician running, try to keep up with him." - U.S. Ammo Troop
Hope this raised a wry smile or two......

Keep smiling
This may keep the smiles going!!!
The minister agreed to marry the young couple in his church if they vowed to remain celibate for the duration of their engagement.
One week before the wedding, he met them and asked, "Have you remained chaste, as I requested?"
The man confessed that they had not: "Last week my fiancee was reaching for a box of lightbulbs on a high shelf, and she dropped it. When she bent to pick it up, I was overcome with lust and - suffice to say - we lost all control there and then."
The preacher shook his head and solemnly informed the man that he would not be able to marry the couple in his church.
"Yes, that's what we expected," sighed the man. "We're not welcome in B&Q any more, either".
Best wishes

WARNING NOT FOR THE POLITICALLY CORRECT
Two Arabs were sat on the Gaza strip chatting over a pint of goats milk. The topic of conversation turned to their children. One Arab pulled out his wallet and got out a photo. "My first son. He is a martyr" He reaches into his wallet and pulls out another photo. 2My second son...He was a martyr too."
The other arab heaves a big sigh
"Kids they blow up so quickly these days..
