Marines and
the police
|The following is supposedly a true story relating a situation that actually occurred in Los
Angeles.The Marines were backing-up LAPD on a call that someone had broken into a store.At the scene, the
cop told the Marines to "cover" him as he approched the store (to police, "cover" means to point your
weapons in the direction of the threat, to Marines it means lay down a base of fire!).The Marines promptly
laid down a base of fire. The Marines fired 178 rounds before they stopped shooting.The thief, probably a
little scared at this point, called 911 and reported, "They're shooting at me!".
