Countdown to SERVICE ASSIGNMENT

[Capt MJ]

That scene is supposedly one of the most viewed and most downloaded videos on YouTube. Wonder why….

I still marvel at how well the filmmakers made Maverick play volleyball “above his height.” Funny how the good Mr. Cruise (all 5-foot-7 of him, in lifts, on a good day) sails well above the net to slam a resounding spike straight into the sand!

The same magic that has had him play Jack Reacher in 2 movies, when the book character is a very tall and powerful guy.

Must be my 30000 views… Rick Rossovich, “Slider.”

Two (2) days and a wake-up. It's getting real, now.

 

[justdoit19]

Yes…we are IN THE WEEK now !!

I remember when I needed a ladder to get in my bunk when I was "short". Then FIGMO which can be taken either way. Good Luck To All.

 

[Devil Doc]

I was so short once I could dangle my feet while sitting on my ID card.

One year when PE was a college requirement a few basketball players signed up for beginning basketball. Coach found out and switched assignments and told us "YOU WILL REGRET YOUR DECISSION" . We all dropped the course.

 

[Old Navy BGO]

How short ? So short that he had to stand on tippy toes to scratch the belly of a pregnant snake !
I haven't heard FIGMO in 30 years ....

 

[THParent]

I was so short I could play handball against a curb.

Can't recall hearing FIGMO but I remember FUBIS.

 

[OldRetSWO]

I was so short once I could dangle my feet while sitting on my ID card.

I'm just about that short naturally. . . unless you lay the card down on its side and THEN you'd have to be REALLY short to swing your legs.

 

[Capt MJ]

Surely I have used FIGMO here on SAF. One of the military’s great feelings.
