IRAQ: A few good words

Marines know how to make their point when posting a sign for other Marines. Like this one on a repair shop door: ‘Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine!’

Or, this one at an ablution unit (sinks and toilets): ‘Wash Your Hands. This is Not a Request!’

Or, on the office wall of a sergeant whose job involves hearing complaints: ‘Pull Up a Chair, Relax, Have a Nice Hot Cup of (bleep) You.’
