Military Pranks

Challenge Marine to "dance off" was completed by one person but didn't officially count because we're not in country yet. Thanks for the help! Oh, were going to Camp Victory. Any tips about that place I'll take too. I'll even take pranks and stuff you did on your deployments. I'll make a list and post it when its completed if your intrested. Thanks!

While in Iraq, my wife sent me the most MASSIVE bras and panties she could find (from local Goodwill store), which I would occasionally slip into someone's laundry bag ... Quite amusing when they go to the camp KBR laundry facility. When you turn in your laundry you perform an inventory in front of the KBR worker ...

Redeployment: Many redeploying personnel are required to fly to Kuwait, then on to the U.S. Customs inspection is required on personal baggage in Kuwait. A dildo stashed in a hapless victim's carry-on can provide alot of smiles for those nearby ...

I was NCOIC for our redeployment REARVON. After TOA with our replacement unit, I popped a hole in a can of tuna fish and stashed it behind a room heater in the sleep quarters ...

Get somebody in your unit an anonymous subscription for an odd/out-of-character magazine (knitting, beading, cat-fancy, gay, etc ... )

used to take a grease pencil to the leather sweat band of a beret to whomever left their beret laying around. Then when they pick it up and wear it and sweat you know what happens. I also used to put shoe polish on the rubber eye cups of NVG's and thermal sights before I turned them in to the armory at the end of shift. Then I'd wait until the next shift for hilarity to ensue.

You're the same guy who would send the newest private in the unit to the 1SG and have him ask for the PRC-E8

Ahh ... The old military classics!

In the Airborne, we'd send our young "cherry" jumpers on wild goose chases, searching for the "keys to the drop zone." Also to the supply sergeant for "Canopy lights" for our parachutes, prior to night jumps ... or a bucket of "riser grease" ... ID10T fluid ... don't forget the search for "Chemlight batteries."

When I was in a signal unit, we'd call up other platoons TOCs, cover our mouths, and go "GAS GAS GAS!" then hang up. It's always fun to call up some random new Private and introduce yourself as Sergeant Major Rotchercrotchoff, and chew his ass for laughing at your Russian heritage. We once sent a kid to the Supply Sergeant to get enough PU-55Y for the whole platoon. The female Supply Sergeant wasn't amused. Opened pack of beef jerky in a friend's carry on before we get sniffed by the drug dogs on our way back from R&R.

The dog fell for it, it was great.
