a bunch of the members of seal team 6 died in the same plane crash a bit after bin laden died so a job seems like a pretty sweet deal by comparison

They cover about a 20x75 foot area completely.

Maybe back when Dubya was prez and they had to take in felons and poo poo because nobody in their right mind was joining up to get killed digging holes in Iraq looking for Saddam.

ArbitraryC posted:Why do people who hate government handouts get so worked up over the government not giving handouts to people who served? They're pretty much a high schooler in terms of real world marketable skills. If you have that big of a hardon for capitalism you should just acknowledge that military service is the weed out test for determining whether you're capable of looking towards long term results or simply have the attention span of a goldfish. really made me think

Luckily living with my parents ain't half bad, lol!!! Many people actually have jobs and homes and support a family without ever having to join the military at all. Imagine that. Imagine having a marketable skill that someone might want to hire you for. Imagine having a job that lasts until you're 65 with a pension that allows you to do whatever you want to do for the rest of your life instead of a job that lasts until you're 38 with a pension that might pay a mortgage bill if you live in a place where houses are cheap. Many people enjoy this kind of lifestyle, and that's because they are both smarter and worth more to society than a soldier.

Justin Tyme posted:I was in RASP for a bit and that phrase is 110% spot on. Regiment is one giant college football team except the players are also all frat bros who get sweet hookups at their dad's car dealership when they get out. During war, you would deploy for much shorter trips but do nothing but raids, and usually go back to your fob at the end of a long night and play cod or workout or whatever. Meanwhile regular infantry are sweating their rear end off middle of the day hoping they don't get blown up or waiting in the sun for EOD to show up, and hang out in that shithole for a year. Sorry you were such a baby about doing pushups and hosed yourself out of an easier job

Considering what it takes to get into any sort of Special Forces, the amount of potential snuffed out on that wall is staggering when you think about it. I've found that no matter which of my friends I bring in there and their political beliefs, it's a very somber thing for all of them.

There are multiple SEAL bars in and near Coronado, CA where they are trained and many have their own collection of different dead dudes. Jesse probably got punched/not punched in Danny's or McP's, both of which have a shrine-like atmosphere, but Danny's much more so.

Its true, things are hard out there for a lot of people. Even so, you don't need to kill people for money. That's more aspirational.

Yeah that's true, without those SEALs murdering brown children in Afghanistan there's no way society could function. There's no way they are a worthless evil in the world, collectively less valuable than a single immigrant fruit picker.
