42. Imagine growing up with one
He became a DI after his two stints in the Korean Conflict. He also used to brag about scoring high on some the "psychotic" meter in psychological tests. In addition to dad being a DI at Parris Island ("in the fifties, when go the misfits and could get away with stuff) in the 50's, he was also was an MP and the ranking officer at a military criminal transfer unit. It wasn't until I was out on my own that I found out that everyday sayings like "we'll fly that up the flag pole to see who salutes it" really weren't the norm. BTW, his "flag pole" comment is his sacrastic way to say "no".
