On Sunday mornings, we like to take our dogs for a walk to the local donut shop. It’s a nice tradition and supports a local family owned business. If you’re in the market for a Sunday morning tradition, I hope you consider ours. If that’s not your speed, I’d at least like to implore you to avoid Corporal Metz’s apparent tradition of walking into the grounds maintenance facility on base, dumping fuel throughout, lighting a match, and letting it burn.

I referenced information about Article 31(b) rights.
