#Yes_Sir::
Say "yes, sir" to an Army Drill Sergeant and you'll trigger a legendary correction: "Don't call me sir, I work for a living!" But in the Marines, the phrase is mandatory.
In the U.S. military, the title "Drill Sergeant" belongs exclusively to the Army. Drill Sergeants are Non-Commissioned Officers (NCOs), and under standard military protocol, the titles "Sir" and "Ma'am" are strictly reserved for commissioned officers. Army recruits are taught from day one to address their instructors exclusively by their job title: "Yes, Drill Sergeant"!!!

Most people can’t.
Their legs shake in under 60 seconds.
Here are the 7 reasons this simple hold is one of the highest-ROI things you can do for your legs, metabolism, and long-term health:

A Ship's helicopter deck is a 'No salute zone'>>>Standardised flight-deck discipline: The deck crew communicate through prescribed hand signals. Unnecessary gestures can cause confusion during aircraft handling....
#Military_Salute::The military salute is not a generic greeting. It is a formal, closed-loop exchange of respect that acknowledges rank, a presidential commission, and the shared bond of military service. It exists as an exchange between service members. Civilians, by definition, sit completely outside that military structure. When a civilian throws a salute, they are participating in a protocol to which they do not belong.
So, how does a soldier react to this? While they appreciate the sentiment, military regulations do not require them to return a salute to someone in civilian clothes (unless the person is a veteran, a retiree, or a specific official). Caught in this mildly uncomfortable social faux pas, some will return the gesture quickly just to avoid embarrassing the civilian. Others will simply smile, say "thank you," and extend a hand.
A firm handshake is the civilian equivalent of a salute!

@AnumaVidisha I witnessed visit to Naval ships by Indiraji, Morarji, Jagjeevan Ran ji, Bansilal ji, Rajiv ji during my service and observed such visits by Vajpayee ji , Manmohan ji and other Prime ministers as a veteran but never such Nautanki was seen. The attire, conduct & address despicable
Our three Services Chiefs and DGs of CAPFs must approach Her Excellency the President as their supreme commander with an appeal to permanently debar this man from addressing their personnel because he always tries to vitiate their minds with party politics
#Sailors_Sleep_At_Sea:
When a warship enters active combat, sleep is canceled indefinitely. Exhausted sailors survive on>>>combat nap.
During General Quarters>the highest state of readiness> every sailor is at their battle station AKA Action Station,fully awake and engaged, regardless of what the clock says.
When the immediate threat subsides into a prolonged, high-tension patrol, a ship typically shifts to a slightly lower state of readiness, where weapons and sensors remain manned but the crew can rotate. Rather than returning to their racks>Mess Deck, off-watch sailors sleep exactly where they stand.....
Habit inherited>> Post retirement, Sailors wake up latest by 5 AM,even during winter and ends up disturbing other family members:)))
