As Long As It's NOT the Smell of 'Napalm in the Morning'

...or the 'baby shit' we used to strip drop tanks with (in those looser, pre-'Superfund Site' days)...

A manly foo-foo juice for a good cause, none the less.

It'll be a big seller if it is close to the aroma of burning JP-5 on the flight line at night.

The smell of foo-foo juice in the morning? Smells like creeping metrosexuality...

What about the smell of diesel and sh*t burning in the morning?

Now, if it came in IMR 4350 scent I could get excited.

Right-o, Mike. I was taken aback when I first found this ~ courtesy of major dad's Marine Corps Gazette email! They sponsored it. Then I saw "with the blessing of the Commandant, etc." on their site and thought it HAS to be because of the charity tie-in. Which I hope has more integrity than the myriad ones that have sprung up AND that is shares a significant portion of the proceeds, vice the pittance that's usual with such deals.

Cross your fingers.

I meant that to be funny. Humor gene deficiency strikes again.
