BN T Shirts.
How about a hop grenade T shirt without "ARMY" on it?
I (and a bunch of my fellow homebrewers) served in the United Staters Marine Corps and just won't wear something that's emblazened with "ARMY".
Really love the logo...just lose "ARMY" on a few pieces.
Thanks and Semper Fi!

Thanks for turning your first post into an insult on hundreds of thousands of people who served their country in the Army.

It's obvious you really don't understand and have no clue about Esprit de Corps.
It's OK. Don't feel badly about that. Not everyone can!

The man you just offended is a West Point graduate.

No one slammed you. There will be no armed services bashing here.

You may apologize now.

Westpoint vs Annapolis....your point is?
Somehow I don't see a Westie wanting to wear a Navy tshirt.
There was no bashing or insult. It was a simple request regarding a tshirt. Put the insecurities aside, stand down and let it go.
Sheesh!

I know plenty about esprit de corps. I also know not to waltz in and in my first statement, shit on other people's service. I wouldn't disrespect any other vet, and I don't expect it to be done in here on my watch.

Instead, why don't we start over. You go and introduce yourself in the "New Users" section. Then, once we get to know you we can bust each others balls all day like old friends.

Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard.....we all fight for the same team......lighten up Francis.....If you don't like the "Army" on the shirt, don't wear it....beauty of the freedom WE all fought for!!!

I served 22 years in the Air Force.....and PROUDLY wear my BN ARMY gear.....and the license tag on my car is BN ARMY.....

And like my brother BDawg said.....kinda not cool coming in here and basically shitting on every service member just because we didn't serve in the USMC......my $.02


Well said Code!!!

ar·my [ahr-mee]
noun, plural ar·mies.
1. the military forces of a nation, exclusive of the navy and in some countries the air force.
2. (in large military land forces) a unit consisting typically of two or more corps and a headquarters.
3. a large body of persons trained and armed for war.
4. any body of persons organized for any purpose: an army of census takers.
5. a very large number or group of something; a great multitude; a host: the army of the unemployed.

I get the spirit of the Corps. Arrogant, egotistical assholes that think they are so invincible and do so many things that other branches don't. Your mere protest of the word "army" on a civilian garment is a testament to that.

Marines

Navy
Equipment

Marines aren't shit without being taxied around by the Navy.

Put the insecurities down yourself and let it go. You aren't shit either. People like you aren't worth the time it takes to scrape you off the bottom of my shoe. Veteran status means nothing with that attitude. That's just an excuse to be a cunt oozing pus.
