The act of kneeling down on one knee while pointing a finger towards the sky and pounding an alcoholic beverage of choice. The taking of knees can be passed out between comrades drinking, however once you command the taking of a knee the person taking the knee is free to return the favor. "Knees" are taken for many reasons including to get drunk, to celebrate, or as competition.
