Are people inherently stupid?

So is this on all bases? Do they tell every soldier this, or just Marines?

I have no idea i only served in one branch. I can ask some people i do know people that served in all 4. Not a bad idea i know ill see 2 of them tomorrow. So i can knock out air force and navy then.

Just wondering because based on the link below the Marines don't really operate a whole lot of bases compared to the other branches. I know the base in Ft. Worth is a JRB, so there are Navy and Marines, and possibly others there as well, but it used to be just a Naval Air Station, so now that Marines are there did they change the ball, and add the Marine items?

Going with the theory your tracking i wouldnt put it past the Corps to do it on just their bases. However you example of ft worth would be an army base because only the army has forts. So the theory would not apply because it would have to be an army base. The link you provided though doesnt show fort worth that i can see. So it must not exsist or is only a myth.

NAS JRB Fort Worth, TX

I see it, as I mentioned, it was a NAS, so it is listed under the Navy.

I missed that in your post. So its a naval air station. It would most certainly have marines on it.

Right, so then it should have all the items in the finial, right?

How about this deathgod...

Instead of everyone trying to disprove your belief of the items contained on top of the flagpole....how about you prove that they are in fact in there.
