Being a career soldier was not in the cards for one particular recruit. Every time he took his turn at the rifle range, he'd lift his rifle, aim at the target, fire -- and hit some tree way off in the distance. One day, despondent after claiming a number of trees but no targets, he said to the sergeant, "I think I'll just go and shoot myself." "Better take a couple of extra rounds," the sergeant shot back. |

Aside fm the obvious of not pointing a loaded rifle to forehead, I note:
*rubber rain jacket in Asia=sunstroke.
*sleeping bag=get wet, attract venomous bugs that bite.
*canteen on pack=no-no;carry on belt x 2 of them--packs get dropped.
*don`t wear headgear that looks like VC; get shot by friends...
What? So I am supposed to believe "Al of the Jungle",natural man, about global warming...

HFS Namvet! I saw the stencil and "GORE" didn't even register - was thinking core or goretex or core, everything but Algore.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't tying all that up to the pack frame with parachute cord kinda lame? I have visions of all kinds of shit coming loose and spilling if he had some rain or running to do. And where is his pistol belt and suspenders to carry ammo for the rifle and anchor all that stuff?

The magazine is photoshopped onto that rifle. Still ain't supposed to aim it at your own head though...
