Default SSG_Huble's Survival Handbook for Soldiers E-4 and Below...

An Excerpt from SSG_Huble's Survival Handbook for Soldiers E-4 and Below while serving under my Command.

..."Military vehicles may not be utilized to "squish" things."...

..."A direct order to make your boots black and shiny does not involve electrical tape."...

..."A direct order to 'put Kiwi on your boots' does not involve fruit."...

..."You may not threaten another soldier with 'Black Magic'."...

..."You may not challenge another soldier's disbelief in 'Black Magic' by requesting a 'lock of hair'."...

..."You may not purchase anyone's soul on Government Time."...

..."Woad is not an approved camouflage face paint."...

..."Small fur-bearing animals killed as a result of live-fire exercises are not entitled to 'Military Burial with Honors'."...

..."You are not allowed to let sock puppets take responsibility for any of your actions."...

..."You are not allowed to let sock puppets assume command of your post."...

..."If the thought of something makes you giggle for more than 15 seconds, you are to assume that you are not allowed to do it."...

..."You amy not create 'new' DOD forms and insist that people fill them out."...

..."Pokemon Trainer is not an MOS."

...and so many more I can't list them all.

Special acknowledgement to SPC Schwartz for if it were not for him the creation of this list would not be possible...or necessary.
