| Two
Marines boarded a long shuttle flight out of Los Angeles, Int'L, headed
for Okinawa, Japan. One sat in the window seat, the other sat in the
middle seat. Just before takeoff, an Air Force Senior Airman got on and
took the aisle seat next to the two Marines. The airman kicked off his
shoes, wiggled his toes and was settling in when the Marine in the window
seat said, "I think I'll get up and get a coke."
"No problem,"
said the airman, "I'll get it for you." While he was gone, the
Marine picked up the airman's shoe and spit in it. When the airman
returned with the coke, the other Marine said, "That looks good, I
think I'll have one too."
Again, the airman
volunteered and went to fetch it and while he was gone, the Marine picked
up the other shoe and spit in it. The airman returned and they all sat
back and enjoyed the 10 to 13 hour flight to Okinawa.
As the plane was
landing, the airman slipped his feet into his shoes and knew immediately
what had happened. "How long must this go on?!?" the airman
asked. "This fighting between our forces? This hatred? This
animosity? This spitting in shoes and pissing in cokes?" |
