Texas is Filled with Special People

OTOH, one of the smartest guys I knew in the Navy was from Texas. He was red headed and Jewish. Yes, that's right. Complained about lack of Jewish representation in worship, talked his way into an assistant job with the chaplain, ended up making rate faster than anybody and was home porking the ladies while we were out watching porn on patrol. You got to admire that kind of chutzpah.

we started out at the same level at the same time, I got out as a 3rd class barely, he was a 2nd class when I saw him last. After 3 years. Dude, that is impressive.
