hows the saying go?, steers and queers come from texas [:D][:D]
So which was Audie Murphy...or Claire Chennault...or Dwight Eisenhower...or Chester Nimitz?
As much as people accuse Texans of liking to brag, you've probably never heard it pointed out that more WWII US General officers came out of Texas A&M than any other single institute. Y'all are welcome.[;)]

I recon' you wouldn't be calling that fine soldier either of those are you? If so, I recon you'd be picken' lead out of your backside.
He's walking the walk, not talking trash on the internet.[;)]
Edit; punctuation.
oh! give me a break guys that was an r.lee ermey quote from "full metal jacket", don't think for a minute that soldier isn't getting ribbed about it as i type, hell i bet he takes it better than you guys
Give me a break. We respect our guys in uniform more than to post that kind of "funnin" while they are in harms way. It's a respect thing.
Not saying you weren't trying to be funny, just saying you weren't.

Actually it was pretty funny.

he wasn't exactly in uniform now was he? [:D]
edit: if anyone thinks i meant to be disrespectful you obviously don't know me, sorry if you took it that way, it worked for r.lee

Dress code be damned, he was on duty at the call. Good soldier, he would be a good Marine too.[:p]
God bless these young men and women. Times and technology changes, but the soldier remains the same.[^]
Didn't think you meant disrespect, just thought your attempt at humor fell a little short. It's something the brotherhood holds close to their chest and I don't expect others to understand.[;)]
Don't ask.....don't tell......[:D]
His mother and father live here in Texas and were on the news the other night. Mom said when dad saw the picture in the paper, he laughed so hard he almost pasted out![;)]
Let me put it this way If he was a Marine He would be a little lighter in the PocketBook. Not cause he did not had his trousers on. But the underware he is wearing is not Authorized. There is a reason it is not authorized. It makes you a target.
Please not what his buddy right next to him has on. think that may be what he was issued and required to have.
I once shot an enemy soldier in my underwear. He looked a bit like Groucho Marx.
How did an enemy soldier get in your underwear?[:o)]

I'll have to agree and disagree with you here Gunny. Pink boxers and red T shirts were not on the packing list and were probably sent to him. It does make him a target though, (but so does the army's new don't blend in with anything camoflage,) and its not like the enemy doesn't already know where they are. He has his gear on, thats good enough.
My experience in Afghanistan is the enemy can hit you with a rock at 300m but is lucky if they hit you with an AK at 50 feet. I can remember my last week in Afghanistan, we were finally able to take real showers, No sooner than I got in the shower we were getting mortared. I threw on a towel, grabbed my rifle, and ran for the closest bunker. Which was by the HQ. I jumped in the bunker full of WMs and realized I had lost the towel and both showershoes on the way.
I would see no need to take money away from him, he is doing his job, and responded to a threat. Granted its not his uniform but at least he showed up what would you rather him do sit in his tent and continue to jerk off? His punishment will be getting his balls busted for this for the rest of his military career. It is funny and hopefully he can laugh at it too.

Corrected it for you.
His pink shorts say "I Love NY".
