We’ve all heard the saying “Trust a Marine with your life, not your wife.” Those words ring truest on November 10, when Marines gather to celebrate their branch’s birthday and its core values of alcoholism, debauchery, and adultery. So dust off your dress blues and get ready for some mando-fun, because we have with the six guys guaranteed to hit on your wife at the Marine Corps Birthday Ball:
1) Your battalion commander: Have some sympathy for the man. He’s recently divorced and in his mid-40s, though he looks like he’s 70. He drinks more than a Lance Corporal, except he drinks alone. You would, too, if you had to deal with hundreds of Marines’ worth of bullshit. Maybe he’s just being friendly; It’s not like there are other Lieutenant Colonels at the ball for him to hang out with. You know what? Tell your wife it’s okay with you if she fucks him.
