I think Uboat.net is wrong.. (food conversation)

Being pretty active myself?
I can put down a Wendy's triple cheese, dragged through the garden,
a double cheese same way, the largest fries they have and a large drink, just for lunch.
(I don't eat breakfast)

I snack all day on anything that don't bite me first.

Dinner for me can feed at lest 2 people for a day!

Then snacks till bed time.

So 5 or 6 lbs of food a day for active servicemen,
under stress, is not unusual.

And I only tip the scales at 155 lbs.

(168 lbs when I was in the 82nd AirBorne)

Boredom does not equate to inactivity in the service.
Stress also burns calories in massive quantities.

@Joker,
Yes.
I was an 'All American'.


Some of the best times of my life were spent jumping from perfectly good Aircraft.


Also, some of my worst.

But that was then and this is now.


And I have high regards for the AirForce Special Operations Command members!

I know how you feel there, you love it but it's a dirty job, just be glad you're home *Hands ice cold beer*

I never felt it was a dirty job.
I just could not stand the 'Fake' hard cores.
They damned near got me killed several times!

It was so bad once, I threatened to kill my spotter myself!

After that?
I was done.

Hello growing my hair long and working in a Gas Station!

[JokerOfFate]

We didn't have "Fake" hardcores, we were in...stupid name...Ai Anbar or something that was nasty... and sandy as well...

I think I have my H.U.M.P around here somewhere.



What! You don't want the beer?

I always take the Beer Mate!


My time was in the 80's
Unlisted Middle Eastern areas when we whacked Kadaffi,
Operation Urgent Fury,
Unlisted South American areas,
etc.
