I’m not sure if you ever got your answer but ‘MP,’ in America, means ‘Military Police.’ In England, it means ‘Member of Parliament,’ so, their Congressmen and Senators. Military Police are fairly universally despised. Their job, as the men see it, is to give them a hard time. They’re always asking for your ID and you WILL get a ticket on a military base for even 1 or 2 miles over the limit. They’re not known for giving anyone a break or a warning.

2024-03-18 00:16:54 +0000 UTCRecall the scene where one Marine was up front and then got put back as a ‘tail end Charlie?’ So, this is an officer or sergeant being fair. The most dangerous place on patrol is the lead guy or ‘lead scout.’ He’s usually the first one shot at. If the column is spread out, as it should be, if the column is large enough, the guy at the back or near the back usually feels much safer and relaxes a bit. The front guy will be most on edge. Usual tactics even put a bit of a separation between the front few guys and the rest of the column. If they get shot at, they have room to back up and the column has time to come on a line and help them. So, a ‘fair’ officer will rotate people into the lead to spread the stress around between all the men. If you ask one guy to always be in the lead, too, he’ll resent it, even if he survives. The problem, though, is that not everyone’s eyes and ears are equally sharp. Not everyone is equally good at moving quickly and quietly through an area but not missing any hidden risks. Certain guys, like those that have hunting experiences from childhood or spent a lot of time in the woods growing up, are better in the lead. Leaders have to balance over-stressing out his best woodsman against having a lead guy who falls down a lot and wouldn’t notice an enemy soldier in the dark if he stepped on him.

2023-12-19 04:04:22 +0000 UTCAt Guadalcanal the rain and mud was so severe that entire tanks were swallowed up and lost in the mud. And I don't mean they got stuck in the mud I do mean they were submerged completely in the mud and abandoned there.

Daytime wetting is called diurnal enuresis. This condition is most common with children under the age of 5. In LECKIEs case it's just a mental disorder brought on with the inability to stay dry.
