No S***, There I Was In Fallujah With Jesse MacBeth...(Updated) (2)
...in the Airborne Special Air Assault Ranger Forces Unit; The Screaming Beagles. We crept through the inky shadows to our target, the Coffee Plantation near Arizona State University. Once inside, my battle buddy and I mowed down nearly two dozen iced mocha lattes before slithering back through the quiet streets of Tempe, er.. Fallujah, leaving a trail of stench as we forgot we were lactose intolerant. The horror, the horror. We arrived just in time to roll our sleeves up with the insides showing and make sure our berets were lined up properly with the flash over our right eyes in preparation for our morning uniform inspection. Unfortunately, we were gigged as our pin-on rank had unknowingly fallen off during our mission. We were then sent home, unfit to remain with our elite fighting unit.
And that is how we ended up working at a Wendy's in the Seattle area. No s***!

Update: Regarding Jesse Macbeth and those like him, don't you love how the frauds are always Rangers or SEALs or “Green Berets.” No one ever says. “I worked in the motorpool washing Humvees.” Sort of like everyone that claims to be reincarnated says they were royalty. No one ever claims to have been a worm or to have run a falafel stand. In reality, this guy is an “Asshat Ranger” in the 3rd Asshat Battalion.

When I was home on my two weeks R&R I admitted to being a "combat" webmaster. My friends thought that was funny.
