Hell of an intro, in the wrong place. At least you filled out your profile.

Introduce yourself in the proper place, read all the stickies, and don't get your panties in a knot, with this kind of SA and question, you probably won't make selection. Have you read Major Martin's book, "Get Selected"? The packing list is the packing list is the packing list.

Have a very SF day.

Other than meeting packing lit requirements, why would you be wearing underwear?

DO NOT ANSWER THAT - IT'S A RHETORICAL QUESTION.

After Ranger School, I could not get used to wearing it in uniform.

TMI?

I never wore shorts/underwear in VN! Didn't wear them afterward either.

But the list, is the list!!

I never liked wearing them in the field, either.

My dad said in VN he didn't wear drawers, tshirts or socks on either of his tours.

I would have KILLED for a pair of Under Armour boxer briefs during selection... they are the only thing that will keep me from rubbing during extended movements.

Instead, I got to spend what little free time I had rubbing foot powder into my groin.

Is THAT too much information?
