They did not stick around long. As soon as I did my gruff voice and asked if they wanted to see my LEGGS...they left. They sure do have a lot of respect for their brothers south of the border.
Tonight I was looking at an RCMP display and found a good ole friend of mine.
SGT MAJOR Bill Pomfret. Mark, you would have liked this guy. He taught ALL the RCMP at F Division here for many yrs. He was intense! RIP Bill.

Last time I offered to show my LEGGS, two of the guys tried to hit me with their wooden ones. Think Buffalo my friend!!!

Congrats Mark and thanks for sharing. Very cool stuff.

Not surprised you got it, you EARNED it. Job well done, and more to come I am sure.

Don't forget to give a great big thank you to your wife from my family for her service as well. Good woman right there. She almost has to be to put up with you!!!!

Hate I missed it. Arms got tired and all that when I tried to make it. I did brag about it to the locals here after we talked back at Christmas. Congrats again.

A Retired Marine Corp General dies and meets St Peter at the Golden Gates, St Peter tells him "Welcome General come on in!"

The General looks at St Peter and tells him, "Look I appreciate the welcome but there is one thing I MUST know before I come in there to spend Eternity"

St Peter says " Well sure General, ask away!"

The General then asks St Peter "Are there any Gunny Sgts in here?.......Because if there is I am NOT coming in there! I spent my whole career dealing with all those know it all Gunny Sgts... They think the Marine Corp couldn't even exist with out them and they even act as though they run the thing all by themselves........ I just don't think I could take another day even looking at one of them "

St Peter tells the General "Oh no sir, there are NO Gunny Sgts on this level, come on in and don't give it another thought!.

The General puffs up his chest and enters the Pearly gates feeling a great deal relieved when suddenly he sees a burly Gunny Sgt with a big old Stogie in his mouth and a gorgeous babe on each arm go strolling by He races back to St Peter and tells him "he can not believe he lied to him like that, he just ran right into a Gunny Sgt and hasn't even been here 2 minutes!.

St Peter looks at him and says "What Gunny Sgt?

The General points him out and say's "There he is right there, look at that cocky way he is walking around like he owns the place "

St Peter sees who he is ranting about and tell the General "Oh that is no Gunny Sgt, That is God!...He just THINKS he is a Gunny Sgt "
