   Tapping Out question. Marine here. I have a buddy who's thinking about joining the Air Force and while I haven't been able to answer many of his Air Force questions (he has a recruiter for that) he likes to hear my shitty Marine stories. We were watching a video about graduation, and saw the 'Tap Out' tradition.
