I'm a little mixed on the issue. I retired in 2011 from the Coast Guard. I also did almost 10 of my years in the Navy. Since my career was somewhat less exciting than we would see on television, lying has been a temptation. I was just the mechanic for the folks who did all the exciting stuff. Even on 9/11 I was stationed in New York, BUFFALO, New York on the completely opposite end of the state. The unit sent people to assist in patroling the harbor, but me. During the Gulf War my thrilling excitement was that I repaired boats for the SEALS attached to our ship. In Kosovo, I was the boat engineer for the TRAP team, but when the air strikes sunk a ship, we were order to go the other way. You see a trend? I'm always close, but still not that close. I was even turned down twice for Iraq, which actually was barely dry land in Dubai. Of course that was in the very early days of the war when it was humorously called, "Operation Enduring Per Deim". I've been telpted to lie and tell people that I was a super hero, but instead, I merely accept that I was just the guy who fixed things for the heros, clearly this guy, if he even was a vet, hasn't come to terms with a lack luster military service.

One of us would sit on the left fender (away from the clutch) and other would sit on the gas tank and hold onto the crankcase breather pipe.
