I would love to know what you thought it would be, please. :chiefsay:

historically I thought it might have something to do with a "stable" of midshipmen for chiefs to tenderly caress. I think I read too much napoleonic navy fiction.

Just saw a DEP kid have a total breakdown during PT over his high school ex.... I don't think he's gonna do so well during boot.

Goddam some fellow future sailor goon just connected my posts to overhearing my conversation at MEPS over a month ago.

All the combat army and marine vets I know at work are kinda messed up and come to think of it they all (5) got fired for some really dumb poo poo except the intensely quiet guy. I guess the armored car business isn't exciting enough for them. We don't have any Navy or Airforce post 9/11 vets. They must be at better paying more interesting jobs.

Yeah I recall in Ennis (a valley) it only spiked to above 70 for like an hour due to sun placement. Shits pretty cold for the majority of the day.

Curious. I'll be doing my A school in Pensacola. Are their short time (6 month) car rentals like that charge something reasonable? I'd expect no due to it being a navy town but I'm curious.

Well gently caress never heard of that. That kinda changes things completely. Figured they just push you on a jet an send you on on your merry way.

Go get some tiger balm and spread a very thin layer under one eye on your cheekbone. Wash your hands and don't touch it. Enjoy the burn.

My great uncle designed an improved heat dissapater on the m60 during trials that was put into general production and he got squat. Granted That was half a century ago.

Kind of an odd thing to take credit for but that's what his brother said.

You're going to Corry Station dude. The place is literally one giant parking lot with nothing to do. The females are often unpopular highschool girls who are getting a shitload of attention from teenage boys fresh out of bootcamp who haven't gotten to jerk off in peace for 2 months. It's a hormone hydrogen bomb and since co-habitation is forbidden all loving has to be done off base making tensions even higher. Basically just sit back and enjoy the poo poo show.

I should go forward with my used RV plan, cover it with plastic and rent it out as a drivable gently caress shack.

Food on my sub was actually pretty decent. We actually got an amazing cook 2nd patrol...made a huge difference.

OCS was another matter. They gave half my class food poisoning at one point.

It's not food poisoning it's a weight loss plan.
