"LEADING THE BSG UNIVERSE"
Raven Marine OIC- Brigadier Gen. Eduardo "Enforcer"
Raven Marine NCOIC- Master Gunnery Sergeat- Paul "Iceworm" Oakley
What is it like to be a Marine aboard the Raven you ask? I believe the General Orders that all new Marine Recruits have to know and memorize will tell it all.
-To take charge of this post and all BFC property in view
-To walk my post in a military manner, keeping always on the alert and observing everything that takes place within sight or hearing.
-To report all violations of orders I am instructed to enforce.
-To repeat all calls from posts more distant from the guardhouse than my own. IE: in the event of a COMM breakdown, all orders must be yelled or verbally given to the next sentry no matter the distance from the next post and so on...until the entire unit knows the same order issued.
-To quit my post only when properly relieved.
-To receive, obey and pass on to the sentry who relieves me all orders from the Executive Officer, Detachment commander, and officers, both commissioned and non-commissioned, of the guard only.
-To talk to no one except in the line of duty.
-To give the alarm in case of fire or disorder.
-To call the MarDet Commander or the XO in any case not covered by instructions.
-To salute all officers and all colors and standards not cased.
-To be especially watchful at all times, especially wartime, and to challenge all persons on or near my post and to allow no one to pass without proper authority.

Oh, I wasn't a Marine, I was Air Force, ours was HUA! (Hoooah)
Yeah, I caught that. I do like the story though.
Two versions of Marine enthusiasm.
Gunny: "It's AAHHOORAH. Story to follow if requested."
Major: "AWWWWOOOOORRRHHHH! AWWWWOOOORRRRHHHHHH!
OOHRAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
I might have the spelling slightly off. I'm a retired Navy Chief, so I'll defer to "Enforcer" if there is a disagreement.
The story as I know it, is "AAHOORAH" was introduced by a Marine Corps Drill Instructor to not only reflect the motivation, dedication, and esprit de corps which Marines around the world are so well recognized, but it also reflects the diving alarm on submarines during WWII. This is in homage to the valiant service of the Marines which formed the Raider Battallions that gave the Japanese such a rough time.
Corporal Oakley,
I don't think my brain is working today as I have a lot of things in mind specially for this coming weekend. Which November notices are you talking about that my spelling of the Marine response I gave on the November announcements forum was different that the one I gave below?
Also, Major, your spelling of the Marine response on November announcements forum was different than that below. Gunny offered to provide historical basis for the response.
Affirmative Major, arrive Friday morning, depart Sunday afternoon.
Come again Corporal Oakley?
Are you going to be at the convention in Austin the whole entire weekend Corporal Oakley?
NOTE: the Major has a slightly different spelling on November Notices.
Come on Gunny, you know you want to tell the story, let's here the details. NOTE:
