GI T shirts

Pilgrim · Mar 9, 2006

from another website:

GIs by nature have such a great sense of humor.
In the face of the most trying adversity, while standing knee deep
in crap or in a raging storm, they will always be counted on to come
up with such really good stuff as this.
Damn, I love 'em!!

T-shirts are always a problem in the military.
