Under pressure to increase their numbers, the Army and Marine Corps are sharply raising the number of recruits with felony convictions they are admitting to the services.So they'll be giving M16s to "prohibited persons"?
If we ever suffer a major natural or induced catastrophe requiring military control, their inclusion among "The Only Ones" should make for some interesting dynamics.
Still, this give me an excuse to segue into this, from one of my favorite "guy" movies:
One: down to the road block, we've just begun
Two: the guards are through
Three: the Major's men are on a spree
Four: Major and Wladislaw go through the door
Five: Pinkley stays out in the drive
Six: the Major gives the rope a fix
Seven: Wladislaw throws the hook to heaven
Eight: Jiménez has got a date
Nine: the other guys go up the line
Ten: Sawyer and Gilpin are in the pen
Eleven: Posey guards points five and seven
Twelve: Wladislaw and the Major go down to delve
Thirteen: Franko goes up without being seen
Fourteen: Zero-hour, Jiménez cuts the cable, Franko cuts the phone
Fifteen: Franko goes in where the others have been
Sixteen: we all come out like it's Halloween.
The Dirty Dozen was always a good movie
