CM, I think that if we were all asked the question, "Who among us has not made a post they later regret," I think maybe the hands of the Coach and BadCat would be the only two to go up. Coach because I think that he thinks almost everything through before he posts, and BadCat because I think he really doesn't care if he pisses people off (a quality I wish I had, BTW).
Besides, from my limited exposure to Marines/soldiers/sailors/airmen/Guardsmen, I've observed that, even though someone may say something not PC, when the chips are down and said person is right there with them helping them out, attitudes change.
No blood, no foul.
