This is most likely going to get buried, but I wanted to share a fun story with you guys. HIMYM is probably my favorite show ever and I started watching it with my squad in Afghanistan (I'm a Navy Corpsman with a Marine unit) in 2012. Every free moment we had we would all gather around my laptop in our tent and watch HIMYM. After a a few seasons we started pretending we were part of the show, and would even go as far as saying "man I can't wait to tell Ol Swarles about this when we get back to base." One of us actually got in a bit of trouble because he said "Come again for big fudge" over a secured line when he didn't understand what was last said over the radio. The show brought us back home for the brief periods we could relax and watch it, and for that I thank you guys. To this day we are still watching it and still reference stupid situations we have and how it coincides with the show.

good luck man! I'm a corpsman with the marines... got back from the stan a few months back... is that pretty much the same as a Shock trauma platoon? I did 1/2 my time with the grunts and my last few months at a small shock trauma platoon (-) in Sangin Valley.
