Military Humor


Here's a few of my favorite leadership "pearls of wisdom" with a military twist. Enjoy!


"If the enemy is in range, so are you." > Infantry Journal


"It is generally inadvisable to eject directly over the area you just bombed." > > U.S. Air Force Manual


"Whoever said the pen is mightier than the sword obviously never encountered automatic weapons." > > - General MacArthur


"You, you, and you ... Panic. > > The rest of you, come with me." > > - U.S. Marine Corps Gunnery Sgt.


"Tracers work both ways." > > - U.S. Army Ordnance


"Five second fuses only last three seconds." > > - Infantry Journal


"Any ship can be a minesweeper....Once."


"Never tell the Platoon Sergeant you have nothing to do." > > - Unknown Marine Recruit


Clean it, if it's Dirty. > > Oil it, if it Squeaks. > > But: Don't Mess with it, if it Works! > > USAF Electronic Technician


"If you see a bomb technician running, > > keep up with him." > > USAF - Ammo Troop
Hooah! That's Leader Business!
