Boycot the Cantina

“The Cantina is being boycotted because of wristbands that only allow you to have three beers per day.

We all (all of the branches on this base) joined to protect the freedoms of the American people.

Should we not be allowed some of the same freedoms?”

“I don't know, I sort of hate it when the guys with loaded automatic weapons slam down a case of the Beast.”

“Yes, if you're in America. But when in Rome ...”

“Have the freakin' Puritans taken over?

Mo' beer!!!”

“Slam down a case of the beast. I did that in the Philippines. Took all day into the night. My friend's wife somehow got both of us loaded into the station wagon and to their house. We woke up next day wondering what the hell. We were local legends with humongous headaches!”

“Suk....'specially the ones imposed locally by Commanders who want the troops on duty sober enough to do their jobs...(And those off duty to be less of a challenge to good order and discipline).”

“A little alcohol-induced morale can keep the boys and girls in good spirits.”

“Mark O is the man,.......”

“when I was in the Navy on a Med Cruise, the Captain of my aircraft carrier was a jerk. There were no R rated movies allowed on the ship and all enlisted men below the rank of E5 (or E6 can't remember which) had to be back on the boat by midnight on their days off. Freaking puritans”

“Heh Heh, maybe he just knows sailors.”

“I hear in Panama they have vending machines that sell icey cold beer. Too bad yer not in Panama Blind Willie. But then again, you don't have to worry about monkeys beating you senseless and electric caterpillers, just no beer after 3.

Want us all to mail you some bottles?

“um you can mail me some beer?”

“No I cannot. =P”

“what about the magic....

SCOPE BOTTLES????”

“I found out today that they are banning alcohol from my college football games! Grr. It's a sad day for alcoholics.”

“mos eisley. a more wretched place of scum and villainy youre not likely to find in the galaxy”

“When I was in the Navy I had my wife send bottles of liquor to me on the ship. A colored sports bottle to drink from and you can have all the liquid stress relief you need. Provided you can conserve the drink until the next package arrives.

Hyway, cinderella liberty sucks. Both ships I was on only had it for E3 and below though. We got around that by going to the local photocopy shop when we pulled into port and having duplicates made of the liberty passes. We'd turn the real ones back in and head out for the night with the fake passes in our pocket.”

“You'll never get away with that here....”

“If there's only 3 beers they better be free, like we got after 45 days in the Indian Ocean. We got 2 and a wrist band.

On the other hand, I'd hate to see more places like the Philipines and Viet Nam spring up where the locals would sell their 15 year old daughters to drunk American servicemen. Unlimited alcohol supplies really helped us show the world the ugly side of America.”
