Cake cutting (Marine Humor)

My wifes grand pap turns 80 in Jan. so the family is throwing a huge party for him. He is a faded green Marine and served with Chesty aka ol Blood and Guts. my wife has to make the cake so she's making a retarded number of cupcakes and then a small 2 person cake. So her Uncle George and I both being Marines thought he would get a kick out of having his own little cake cutting ceremony with an NCO sword and seeing as he hasn't been to a ball since the 60's. Ill be sure to get some pics to throw up here.

Thats good shit, at the ball i went to this yr a Banana Marine cut the cake with a 21 yr old sgt lol. Dude was that banana marine salty! He was tossing back whiskey like it was going out of style tomorrow!!!

I bet it didn't phase him either! We didn't have a ball my last year in, our operational tempo was to high and more that 75% of our unit was spread out to different countries. So come February, we had a massive Mess Night. Spouses were invited too... They saw a side of the Corps that most spouses don't lmao!

We always had ours in vegas, well besides the shit one we had in iraq anyways the last one i attended i was hanging out the top of a limo goin down the strip trying to load up skanks :lol:

I love mess nights too!!!

Yeah they gave us some O Douls or however you spell it, told us they worked out a deal with command to get us these drinks when we were in helmand. I've never seen an O act like a bigger tard than when there drunk on a non alchy beer... Not having a Ball and making up for it with a mess night was the best idea ever, Port and jungle juice was free too!

Our mess night 05 i put a whole can of copenhagen in the grog!

It also included gold schlagger(sp), tabassco, sailor jerry, orange juice, pepper, everclear and tomatoe juice!

Douls has a lil alcy like 0.5% i remember reading about it at this grocery store. Beers are only 5.xish%

My buddy got busted one day dance in his boxers during field day. So they called him out on it at mess night!

Nice! No cope made it in to ours. We had a seperate grog for the spouses, and let me say, our enlisted wives dislike officers and there wives as much as we did! Lmao my wife made me proud that night!

Man do i miss the brotherhood. I would be 10 yrs out from retirement too. Such a good life as a Marine!
