A safety school is the common term for a school that one attends if not accepted by his or her first choice. Hence, the proposition is that the boat people dream of Kings Point but console themselves with Annapolis.
“Guys giving their all with little hope of professional football contracts; many will soon be facing our nation’s enemies. God bless all our Armed Forces.”
Heck those guys are going in the Navy. Unless they go Marine option or SEAL they won’t be “facing” the enemy.
GO ARMY.
Yeah, I know, our football team sucks. But...GO ARMY!!!
BTW, Naval Air is a dangerous enough profession in peacetime. It involves ground support combat these days over unforgiving terrain. Aviation and the Marine Corps are the most sought service selections.
Just Army vs Navy ribbing man. I’m a UH-60 pilot in the Army. My dad was a “surface warrior” in the Navy. My brother a Marine Corps captain. Yet I still make fun of them as they make fun of me.
“pullus” can also mean “blackish” but that doesn’t make any sense either.
“God bless our armed forces, ditto! Go Army!!”
No,no,no... that’s GO NAVY... BEAT ARMY!!! Come 5 December, Navy will beat Army like a rented mule!
