The entire operation was Ernie King's idea.<br /><br />Hell, if the Navy remembered and taught their history to its junior officers and sailors even half as well as the Marine Corps teaches its Marines, you wouldn't have the "Global Force for Good" horse sh*t, and sailors would know how to handle small arms.UltimaRatioRegisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7704146.post-46326019634638032362012-02-04T20:07:23.538-05:002012-02-04T20:07:23.538-05:00AOD.
