Back in the 90's I was the NCOIC of a payroll run from Camp Pendleton to the Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Center in Bridgeport, CA. On the way to the base we had to stop at the local Bank of America to cash our US Government check in order to pay folks. Our butter-bar and myself were carrying our M9's and our two guards had M-16's. We all piled out of our US Govt van and noticed a California Highway Patrol cruiser parked across the street (very small town). He kind of looked at us in amazement as the troops and I went into the bank. The zero had enough sense to cross the street and reassure the CHPer. It went smoothly after that.
