Socks are pretty awesome because they’ve been around for hundreds
of years. In the really early days, they were worn as a sign of wealth by the nobility.
What did the poor people wear you ask? More than likely animal skins or furs
wrapped around their feet (at least that’s what the ancient Greeks did). If
they didn’t do that, they probably went to the local Wal-Mart and stole a pair
(I know a lady who can help you out with that if you need socks…or bras or
purses…whatever she can grab.). Gotta keep those feet warm folks. You should
tell your kids what Lt. Dan told Forrest and Bubba (they’re stupid and will believe
anything you tell them): “There is one item of G.I. gear that can be the
difference between a live grunt and a dead grunt. Socks, cushion sole, O.D.
green. Try and keep your feet dry when we’re out humpin’. I want you boys to
remember to change your socks wherever we stop. The Mekong will eat a grunt’s
feet right off his legs.”
That’s right, little Timmy. They will EAT. YOUR.
FEET.
