The name of this Forum

[Pinto]

What do you think about changing the name of this forum to "Signals" rather than "Communications & Electronics?"

Let your opinion be heard, folks!

Cheers!

I suppose you could, but that would exclude all those who are not "Jimmies" who would otherwise post here.  Not all wear that Naked guy on their berets.  ;D

Sig Ops ussually call themselves "sigs" while the rest of the trades refer to themselves as Linemen, LSIS, etc.  CNE is the best choice and a good name.  Leave it as it is.

agreed...or we could just change it to "Jimmies and Rubberheads" ;D

aren't you jealous of that naked guy! I mean come on, we have a naked guy on our hats! I love Jimmy, for the simple fact that he can stand naked on the side of a highway...If I do that, I get charged!

Well you could have a point.....but some CO's wife took offence and he is no longer anatomically correct, so I am afraid, very afraid.  ;D

Heh, that's another reason I don't stand naked on the side of the highway. The CO's wife might take offence, and then I wouldn't be anatomically correct

Isn't that a great story? I wonder if anyone can verify that it actually happened? It has that element of plausability that you find in so many urban legends... but you just have to wonder. But what really bakes my noodle (Matrix reference) is, where did it go after? I mean, imagine you were the guy charged with... um... shall we say "shortening" that part of the statue's anatomy. Wouldn't it cross your mind to hang on to the bit you chopped off? As a souvenir? Mount it on a plaque or something? The mind boggles...

Cheers!

CO's wife probably kept it...What I wonder is, who's the poor bugger that had to do the shortening? Maybe he had extra duties

 

[George Wallace]

Thinking of the Canons captured at Balaclava, perhaps it went into making the first "Peacekeeping Medal"  ;D

I don't know too many wifes that would take offence at a large penis.  Probably the Base comd himself took offence because he had a 2 inch dick at full salut!

ROTFLMAO!

This thread just made my morning. Thanks guys.  ;D

To be fair, you've never actually tried it, admitedly, because some selfish man wouldn't let naked people use his car as a getaway vehicle (Which begs the question, does he allow clothed people to use it?)

 

[Pte. Bloggins]

He probably would do it too, and not necessarily while drunk in the middle of the night either. 

 

[Sig_Des]

Hmm....I will get naked anywhere, anytime, as long as there is some sort of getaway. That selfish guy not allowing me to sit in his car naked...well, let's just say I had my vengeance  >

also, alcohol and a late-night hour are not nescessarily required for nudity, but they do enhance the experience!

[Sig_Des]

Hey, I earned that Dollar!!! The sad thing is, there's a video-tape floating around of that particular event

I have been out of the C&E branch for 17 years.  Do the army version folks still wear "signals" on the slip on?  Having done both an Air Force and Infantry tour as a jimmy, I'd have to say signals would be a poor choice for the branch name.  My couple pennies. 

 

[chrisf]

Given that there are plenty of folks who wear the jimmy who aren't signallers...

 

[Pte. Bloggins]

...but they do enhance the experience!

Amen.  ;D
