A few years ago, US Army Specialist Schwarz aka "Skippy" assembled and posted "213 things Skippy is no longer allowed to do in the U.S. Army."

Some examples:

- My proper military title is �Specialist Schwarz� not �Princess Anastasia�.

- I must get a haircut even if it tampers with my �Samson like powers�.

- I must not tell any officer that I am smarter than they are, especially if it�s true.

- I am not the atheist chaplain.

- If one soldier has a 2nd Lt bar on his uniform, and I have an E-4 on mine It means he outranks me. It does not mean �I have been promoted three more times than you�.

Based on the intellectual prowess I've seen on these boards, I'm fairly certain that an appropriate list of warnings could be compiled from those with experience in Korea.
