I had to use some Marine ingenuety Saturday

Our MCL detachment had their annual booth at Stratford Day here in Stratford CT. Since it is held on Main Street, in front of my house, I arranged for our booth to be on my front lawn. But, the town had some restrictions for Stratford Day that were enforced. NO BEER! So, I went into the house and rinsed out some soda cans and poured the beer into them. During the day, I would ask my friends if they would like another "Coke".

to sneak booze..
Back in the 80's the wife and I went to a Willy Nelson concert where no liquor was allowed. So I see her in the kitchen cleaning out an old plastic mustard bottle before the concert.
So I ask, what are you doing?
With a SLY look she turnes and says, I'm bringing my Brandy in this here mustard bottle to the concert.
OK at this point I'm thinking, where ya putting my Old Granddad whiskey? She turned and says, see that loaf of French bread in the package? Check it out.
I pull the loaf of bread out and low and behold she had cut the loaf in half and there I find a bottle of booze inside the cutout loaf od bread.....Got to love that women!

Where There Is A Will There Is A Way.......

Many years ago I stopped a suspected DUI and during the investigation I determed he was a good DUI. While talking to him he showed me where he kept his alcohol.
He opened the hood and said he had cleaned out the fluid holder and tubing for the windshield cleaner and put his alcohol in there. He then removed the tube from the spray end and put the tube through the fire-wall. Everytime he wanted a drink he would activate the "windshield cleaner."
He went to jail and I emptied out the holder. :)

My first duty station was Marine Barracks Norfolk. One of the posts I stood there was Gate 2 on NOB. One late evening, I was on the out going lane which meant I also had to cover the pedestrian gate. I noticed one Sailor approaching the gate with a couple of bulges under his jumper. As I approached him, he looked at me and said "GRRR, Slyfox!!!" Slyfox was a popular, and very cheap, red wine with Sailors trying to stretch what was left of their last payday. I asked the Sailor "Watcha got there Sailor?" He said "GRRR, Slyfox!!!" I took my baton and tapped each of the bulges hard enough to break the bottles. I then told the Sailor to go on now that he had this big red stain down the front of his whites!
