Navy?
The contractor I hired to build my master bath was in the navy, and told me all kinds of crazy stories.
He showed me this massive scar going from his crotch to his upper chest. He was stationed in Thailand (I think?) and dumped his local girlfriend. Girlfriend's brother didn't like that, and tried to gut him. He told me by the time he got away and got to someone to help, his boots were full to the top with blood.
And of course heard about him trying to set his friends up with ladyboys at the bars.
