Son, if you get in a fight you fight. Period.
If it happens once or often doesn't matter, you respond accordingly.
When QP's get together we don't talk about 'firefights' we talk about crazy shit team guys/ we did in difficult/unusual circumstances circumstances. The spirit to overcome the mundane drudge of a base camp etc.

In other words, its not a matter of "if", rather "When".
Thanks for helping put it in perspective.

In my mind while sitting through a VGT/PPT presentation or in real life?

Thanks Richard. That made my day. Now I'm off for some paper towels to wipe what I was drinking off my screen.

You want a firefight? Stumble down the Murc at 2300 on a Saturday night "pretending" to be drunk and go ATM to ATM. It's guaranteed to happen. Better have a robust Support By Fire.
