Never mess with a Ranger...
Never mess with a Ranger...
A battalion of Marines was on a beach doing a PT workout when the CO of the battalion looked up and saw a lone Army Ranger standing at attention at the top of a hill.
The CO was curious so he sent a Marine up to see what was going on.
As the Marine approached the Ranger sprinted into the woods, and the Marine followed.
Yelling and screaming could be heard coming from the woods, seconds later the Ranger stepped out and stood back at attention.
The CO was still curious so he sent a squad up to investigate.
The Ranger ran into the woods and after some yelling and screaming, came back out and stood at attention again.
Now the CO was angry so he sent an entire Platoon up to the top of the hill.
The Ranger ran into the woods.
He emerged moments later after some more yelling and screaming with no sign of the marines anywhere.
The CO had had enough, he sent the entire battalion of Marines charging up the hill.
The Ranger ran into the woods. More yelling and screaming and this time some gunfire.
Finally a terribly wounded Marine crawled out of the woods and reported back to the CO.
The CO inquired "Do you mean to tell me that one Army Ranger destroyed an entire battalion of Marines"
The Marine replied "no sir, it was a trick, there were two of them

AMBUSH MASTER,
Wrong again, it was a Psyops TPT (Tactical Psyops Team). I think I have one of the two assigned at my embed site now.
How lucky am I?
