It's the whole 21st Century Sailor Initiative bullshit the brought up prices on booze and tobacco to the average price in town. It used to be a lot cheaper than anywhere outside the base.

A neighboring AO in Afghanistan belonged entirely to artillery. I'm sure gun crews weren't the only ones doing patrols.

Not that pull ups have anything to do with REAL GRUNT STUFF anyways.

Field artillery is a combat mos. artillery conducts their own movement, does their own position scouting, and is charged with defending their own positions. Additionally artillery is frequently reassigned to do infantry or mp operations.

I thought met stopped being an mos though.

My platoon commander arranged for a keg of beer to be shipped out to us in the field when we found out we were going to Afghanistan. Admin fags that came along ratted us out to the battalion CO and we had to dump it.

Saddest day of my life.
