Strange Tales and Misadventures in the Armed Forces


What's the difference between a fairy tale and a war story?

A fairy tale starts with "Once upon a time..." while a war story begins with "Now this ain't no bull!"

That said, here is why I have created this page. One night, a friend and I were swapping stories about our Army days, and Pat said, "Sean, you should write those tales of yours down."

Thanks, Pat O.

Be warned-the language in these tales may be offensive to some. If you don't like strong language, don't read them! It's that simple!
