A friend of mine was in the army w/ a guy named Seth. When my friend was at the Monterrey language school, he first met Seth, his new roommate, with Seth in full camo paint and a rifle hunched up on one of the dressers in their room like he was standing guard. Apparently he also did a full perimeter walk every nite w/a loaded rifle.
I suppose in a war you'd want this guy on your side, but, in language school??
I probably woudln't call that particular Seth "a fag". At least not to his face....
