Caconym posted:They couldn't tell with certainty, and it wasn't widespread, just common enough to get the stories going, and get Hezbollah fighters to doubt their weapons. That was Project Eldest Son. Other examples of the idea are when the CSA hid explosives in Union coal supplies to damage trains. The better part of a century later, the British did the same thing with rat carcasses, the idea being that train crew would dispose of them in the fire box. These were intercepted in their first shipment, but British intelligence considered it to be a minor victory anyway. The Nazis wasted way more time looking for rat bombs than it had taken the British to come up with them.

Managing to get your enemy to closely examine any rat cadaver they come across definitely seems like a win

Wow came out in November 2004 and didn’t have raid content until 2005. Everquest came out in 1999 tho so maybe he was including that  Trap sprung, etc

Shared a barrack room with a guy who hit WoW reaaaalllly hard. Sucked as a soldier, but I wish my supervisors could run a section as good as that guy ran a guild. Dude was giving life advice to people almost twice his age to get them through their marital and financial problems because he knew happy, well adjusted The game got him kicked out but I still maintain he was too smart for the military anyways.

I have a friend that's in an Army BOLC class right now, and apparently most of the class has developed Covid symptoms as of the last week or so. No one wants to get quarantined for two weeks and recycled back into the next class, so they've all decided to just tough it out and not tell anyone in charge. I have a feeling that's not the only instance of this happening.

The Army recycles? The Navy would send you to your next command unqualified telling you to schedule one for the next available slot in 2022.

Memento posted:Doing (game) instead of doing (duty) is a hell of a drug My last year in, in a TRADOC cadre unit, we had an E-3 that had literally been sent across Barton Field to us right after AIT. I didn't know they did that until I met him. Seems like a real way to ruin someone from the start, eh? He was put on my team my last six months in, and one Monday morning unit run he made like 500 yards before staggering and dropping out. PSG noticed and was pissed, I pulled out and said "I got it Sergeant". I wasn't in the mood to yell at anyone, so I just asked him what the gently caress, are you hungover? You've still got to put out more than that. He said he had been up all weekend on WoW and hadn't slept since Thursday night. So I made him do interval runs with mountain climbers inbetween, half so the PSG could see he was being smoked and half because he actually did piss me off saying that. I told him I'd actually have more respect for him if he showed up stinking of whiskey and told me he was drinking all weekend. He told me much later that bothered him for months. I think that's the only time I ever actually smoked someone. He was a decent kid, I hope he pulled it out, but knowing Fort Gordon he probably didn't.

He was less of a WoW gamer and more of a 6 pack a day and xbox person with no personal hygiene at all.

Lol that reminds me of a different warcrack addicted poor hygiene having motherfucker whose diet of monster energy and take-out did a number on his digestive tract. He opted to poo poo himself while playing one day to avoid inconveniencing his group. Like...what the gently caress.

Aside from the "what the gently caress are you going to teach anybody" part of things, I literally can't think of a worse first post for a servicemember than a TRADOC unit. Even compared to the stinkers like Polk.

I went straight from 2.5 years in the DLI/SIGINT pipeline to a TCOM post in 29 Palms at a unit that didn’t have a SCIF. As an E-3 I was filling an E-5+ billet and was supposed to teach SNCOs and Os about the capabilities of units that can’t be discussed outside of a SCIF. Needless to say most of my time was spent grappling with isolation and worsening clinical depression instead of any actual work.

gently caress that's terrifying. From an outsider's perspective, is this scenario accurate?quote:Here's your job. You don't have the equipment to do your job, and if you attempt to do your job without this equipment, you will be committing a federal offence. You are not being paid as much as you should be to do your job, and you also don't have enough authority to teach the people you need to teach to do your job, which as mentioned earlier, you can't do.
