well, for starters, the marine corps funded my addiction by paying me to stand ready to do rough things on your behalf so you can sleep safe and sound in your comfy beds at night. And, no i am not a lucky bast*** by any means. We do things you wouldnt dream of, we do things you wouldnt do for all the money in the world, and we do it for abouti dunno, two dollars an hour?so just food for thought.
btw to the armyguy, iminfantry too, and i carry a SAW too, good luckto you
With the pay, the amount of annual leave, medical/dental Ins (for self & family), I believe it's FREE education now (?), and whatnot - it's way more than $2 an hour. Even an E1 base salary (TIG/TIS < 6 mos) alone is more than $2/hr.

listen "friend", im not sure if you have ever been in the military, especially the Marines, but our health coverage, and dental coverage is quite subpar, and as far as our education benefits go, well good luck navigating the flaming hoops to get tuition assistance, and i take home 600 bucks every two weeks, which makes out to be under 2 an hour figuring we work 24/7, because there have been many days ive worked 24 hours straight, and had to be at work at say 1am, 5am, look this is pointless, im not going to argue with someone who thinks the military is paid adequately, this post was about mods, and thats what it will stay about. No more talk about military pay.

Yeah, you're absolutely right. This is about mods and not Mil. pay. And I really didn't mean to flame - just giving a little perspective (10 years Active Army).

god i hate the MPs, i got a ticket for chirping my tires from a stop sign into a turn, it wasnt even on purpose, just let the clutch out too fast, i coulda done it in my 89 ranger!!! whats ur MOS? im an 0351!
Well My MOS is 3P0X1 and any "Display of Speed" on base is an offense, on most AF Bases driving while talking on a cell phone is a ticketable offense.. Thereare many pedestrians on bases, doing PT ect.. We need to keep them safe.

Well, that's a good list of mods, man- I'm sure you're gonna be more than just a "little" happier! [sm=badbadbad.gif]

Oh, and I read your other post about your friend with the Charger. He, on the other hand, prolly won't be so happy [8D]
