Retardog posted:From a buddy's FB: "HRC is an odd place I never want to figure out. You know you're gonna have a bad day when you roll up and a LTC is outside on a detail picking up cigarette butts in the parking lot." It may be the WTU. I had an NCO that got sent there from Afghanistan and said that they used the WTU members as the labor force on the post. He was sweeping hallways and cutting grass 10 hours a day, 6 days a week with an O4 who had finally had enough after being strung along for 2 months and left. Let that sink in for a second: the Ft. Knox WTU takes people who were injured badly enough to warrant being sent to a special unit for treatment (my NCO had hosed up his back) and makes them to do manual labor. psydude fucked around with this message at 22:02 on Mar 12, 2015 |

Anyone who isnt obviously missing limbs is a faker in their eyes

our WTU did a lot more cocaine than work, I don't know if that's the norm or a SETAF specialty

I spent 18 months in a WTU. I wore my uniform for a half hour a day and did nothing but play PlayStation. I never got put on a single detail.

I can't believe there were how ever many people in WTU and not a single one went to IG/their congressman about that.

Apparently a lot of complaints about the abuse disappear seeing as WTU likes to threaten to stop your paper work or slow it down and keep you there longer. One of of my friends dealt with this, constant threats to keep him there for longer if he didnt do whatever they told them to do like any pleb detail.

If the army can take something as simple and fun as shooting guns at a range, and turn it into the godawful boring clusterfuck that it typically is, it can sure as hell gently caress up a good idea like the WTU. I mean, it's super lovely, but I'm not surprised.

I don't know if you're referring to a rifle range or Afghanistan but I guess it applies equally to each.

The only fun I've ever had at a range was at Ghazni, where the range was basically just a big pit that you could roll up to whenever and do whatever the hell you wanted.

This unit is the only one I've ever been in that does it mostly right. Accountability, gently caress off for a while, roll up to the range in your POV, grab rifle/pistol and ammo, zero, shoot, put rifle back, go home. Dudes on the range detail handle everything else. Still boring, but at least largely painless.

Never once did I have a weapon turn in on the first try. 'Oh there's carbon in the chamber, oh I saw something in the barrel, oh you didn't get enough CLP in the mechanism' on and on the excuses went. I was suspicious at first, then it was confirmed when we drew weapons, got to the field training exercise site and everyone locked up their weapons in a trailer so we could have paintball guns and face masks issued. Never fired a shot through my weapon but it was rejected for having 'carbon in the chamber'. Fortunately I had a first-line who wasn't poo poo at his job (in an AIT platoon no less!) and he told the arms room guy to get loving bent, hard, then sit on it and rotate before god drat well taking the weapon and if he didn't like it call his loving supervisor. Or the first-line was terrible at his job and just wanted weapons turned in as fast as possible so he could drink away the pain, but really when it comes to the Army that actually is being good at your job.

Or just be friends with the armorer. Disassemble, solvent tank, wipe down and air dry, coat of Hoppes on the metal to metal contacts light enough you can't see a fingerprint in it, reassemble, hand it in and go hide somewhere on your phone while people bitch and moan for another 4 hours.

Do nobles get any portion of a GI Bill even if they received an ROTC scholarship? When they get out that is...

So, 3 years (ocs or ROTC w/no scholarship); 4 years (ROTC w federal) scholarship; 5 years (USMA). Theres a thread for this.

I was probably a lovely armorer but unless your weapon was blatantly filthy and / or you were someone lovely who outranked me I usually didn't bounce anything back ever because I wanted to go home too. Army would probably run a lot better if everyone with broken marriages or other home problems lost any ability whatsoever to prolong the workday.

It seems like people with broken marriages/homes completely forgot about this amazing thing called Happy Hour.

So I woke up today with a great message on my phone. Apparently this guy I went to Language school and AIT with killed somebody while on weekend pass.  Dude was always kind of odd, actually pretty damned disturbed. He got caught drinking underage and legit got sent to a rehab facility during language school. If you think that's enough to make him lose his clearance or at least his job since he wasn't out of AIT, think again. He had already graduated with a +2/3 and had a 300 pt score so the Army still wanted him.  Some months after that, he got caught drinking underage again at a drinking establishment on post. The cops came and he threatened to kill himself with a knife. He was eventually tazed and put in a sleeper hold. If you think that's enough to make him lose his clearance or at least his job since he wasn't out of AIT, think again! Army really needs them decent Persian speakers who can run fast apparently cause he still went to AIT with me.  (his knife collection) This dude was obsessed with knives. Like he always had at least 3 on him at all times. During room inspections at language school they found his collection and confiscated them, but nothing was said after that. Which brings me to this weekend:  Homeboy apparently fell in love with a 14 year old girl. Her mom didn't like the idea of her 14 year old daughter being the slam piece for a 20 year old Neo wanna-be so tried to brake them up. His response was to stab her in the neck multiple times, then drive with said 14 year old slam piece to a site to burn the body and bury it and then half-heartedly push the murder vehicle into a pond before walking back to the girl's house to have wild murderer sex before getting caught by the police. All I'm saying is that I'm glad I'm not stationed at Fort Meade right now cause holy poo poo will there be safety briefs.

Well, you really can't cut any deeper than neck-stabbing a lady and then oval office-stabbing her underage daughter.

The real joke is that this guy is 20 years old, and if he did it in a non-execution state he's going to spend the next fifty years alone in segregated population since gen pop will rape and eventually kill him. Which is cool with me, dude's a kiddie fucker.
