My friends who are in JROTC bad mouth th army, the JROTC teacher always says if their not working hard that "we are not the army get your butt in gear." I personally know almost nothing about the army but their must be some reason that they do that, something that the army does or does not do must make people think that. Please tell me.
P.S I don't think the army is wimpy at all
 
people from every branch trash every other branch...it's just for fun for most. i respect every other branch as much as i respect my own
 
Its just rivalry, every branch is going to pick on the other. I pick on the Marines, navy, air force, and coast guard a lot but I also respect them. Its all in good fun really.
 
Making fun of the other branches of service has been around for a hundred years; all of the services do it with each other. It is meant as a means of showing solidarity with all the members of your own service.

The army makes fun of the navy and the air force, the navy makes fun of the army and air force, the air force makes fun of the army and navy. You could just call it "friendly rivalry," even though there are always a few people who are going to take it way too seriously. Basically, it's all just good-natured ribbing, because when the chips are down, all branches of the service know that they're going to have to pull together and rely on each other to help defeat the enemy.
 
Sibling rivalry, but its kind of funny when JROTC or DEPers do the trash talking. They know less than nothing, and don't have the right to do that trash talking yet.
 
Interservice rivalry. It is no big deal, when shared by Service Men and Women.

I pick on Marines and Sailors. But I have the greatest respect for my Brothers and Sisters In Arms.

It's a family thing. I pick on my family, my family picks on me. You pick on your family, but leave mine alone and I will leave yours alone.
 
The Army's the biggest of the Branches so they make easy targets. The Army does however talk just as bad about the other branches, so don't worry about that.
 
they always bad mouth its other. it kinda like the relationship you have with your brothers. you always try to one up the other and be competitive. all in all the fight as one. are you guys in the marine, navy or air force ROTC?
