Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire US troops ordered to publicly FAST for RAMADAN

Chances are you couldn't find any where to eat in public anyway in a Muslim country.
Whats the big deal? Continue the custom of the ugly American?

dont eat haji shyt
plain and simple

ssg l(one of my squad leaders)
to me one day during oif1:

"hey sfc e
I just went and took a dump and their are white things moving in it"

me:
"lets go look at it"
me:
"congrats dude you have tape worms from eating haji half cooked rottiserre chicken with pin feathers still on it, and we have been told a million six times not to eat non approved local food, but yet you send them fugging kids on a run for it everyday"......




dumbass spent 3 days up in the cash hospital getting dewormed and I was short a squad leader for those days doing patrols and others had to take up the slack for him cause of him eating fugged up food.........................



why in the [bleep] would anyone want to eat haji shyt anyways
(fugg middleastern culture and everything it involves)

bout the only thing I would let my joes eat would be the big flat bread fired in clay ovens out in our patrol areas and we would pay for that stuff, after an old bag went after ferguson(ferggynuts) with a broom one day when he tried to get one on the sly out of her oven(funny as hell)







but remfs also have a way different life than infantry guys on a combat outpost, so I can see why they would tell remfs to behave in such and such a way
cause remfs aint got a lick of sense to begin with in the ways of the world and how not to make themselves and others a target from their actions
its all baskin robbins and burger king for them and good times on the FOB..............................

United States military personnel are now being forced to observe the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.

U.S. troops stationed in Muslim nations have been informed by a statement on the Central Command website that they are to “be familiar with host-nation customs and courtesies to help facilitate a long-lasting mutual respect with local communities.”

“U.S. military members serving in countries that observe Ramadan are required to adhere to certain practices while outside U.S. installations,” the statement read.

“Members should be respectful of local customs and be patient with host nation personnel,” said Capt. Dan Sickles, host nation officer in-charge. “Ramadan is a countrywide religious celebration. Members should not make light of local customs and should also expect that during daylight hours host nation customer service will be abbreviated and less accommodating.”

Sickles added that many stores off base would be closed during daylight hours.

One part of Ramadan is that those observing the holiday fast from dawn until sunset.

When outside U.S. controlled areas, eating and drinking in public during daylight hours is against the law. Failure to obey could result in fines up to $685 or a sentence of up to two months in jail.

“The commander’s policy dictates that airmen will adhere to local law, which prohibits eating, drinking or tobacco use off base in public,” said Sickles.

“The only personnel exempt from this requirement are those performing strenuous labor outside U.S. controlled areas. They are authorized to drink and consume as much food as they need to maintain proper hydration and energy.

As airmen and other personnel here adjust to this, Brig. Gen. John Quintas, 380th Air Expeditionary Wing commander, outlined the type of conduct he expects throughout the holy month.

“As ‘Airmen-Ambassadors’ representing American and U.S. military values around the world, we are committed to the concepts of tolerance, freedom and diversity,” said Quintas. “I hope that during your service in the 380th AEW you become more informed and appreciative of the traditions and history of the people in this region of the world. Please remember we are guests here and that the host nation is our shoulder-to-shoulder, brothers and sisters in arms, risking their lives for our common cause to defeat terrorism.”
