Its a farcry from Navy but Generation Kill is the most accurate depiction of the Military. As a civilian you'd probably think the crude dialog is exaggerated

How come every Filipino has their mom as a dependent on tricare

I know a guy who got his younger sisters as dependents as an E-3 to rake in the BAH. Jealous.

Put in for orders in April. Heard nothing and finally got my rear end set-up with CMS-ID. Status? Posted...at the end of April. So as far as I can tell, nothing else has been done. Guess I will have to get on it when the selection period opens back up.


I put in on CMS-ID every month as soon as I could. I even went into work a couple times at random hours as soon as it'd open up to be one of the first ones. I ended up having to call them once it closed off to me which took about 3 weeks of calling 5-10 times a day and multiple emails and voicemails.


I know one dude who didn't get orders until like 3 months out

I've paid cash for every vehicle. Debt is a hassle...

My first car loan was at 6% from Ford's financing dept. I paid it off after getting the cash back incentives on a vehicle already negotiated $540 below invoice. This is the only way to do it in the Navy so that it isn't terrible when your dependapotamus tries to take it in divorce court.

20 year old car club :whatup:

I remember some old salt telling me they were manning the rails somewhere cold as balls and the CMC wouldn't let them wear their peacoats because no one had rank but all the chiefs were wearing poo poo without rank

Mexico has always been off limits as far as I've known? But I've been in since like breakfast so


Lots of things bad about El Centro but being literally right next to Mexico and not allowed to go would suck.

Hawaii vs San Diego is a tough choice but I think the above posters covered all the comparisons

I've never seen NCIS but is it literally just a TV show revolved around NCIS "agents" or w/e they're called chasing down petty officer _______ for raping a chick or dealing drugs out of the barracks? Well I guess they cover the Marine Corps as well but even then with both branches combined there isn't that many people?

Not for valium, no. Well maybe but they want the good stuff. They're getting high as gently caress because wouldn't you know they're allergic to all NSAIDS and every other pain relief drug that doesn't give you a buzz.

Something about free healthcare just opens up the flood gates. Most docs would rather not argue it and just fill their prescriptions and send them on their way.


I'm not sure if I'd say its "legitimate" it's hey this person complains of pain and we did all these tests and still aren't sure what it is so here's a name for it. Maybe my idea of it is thrown off a bit because every person I've seen with it was a 300 lb middle aged dependa married to some poor e-5 with 6 kids and pages of medication allergies and medical conditions they carry around with them to present when needed

It's a vicious cycle. Dudes want BAH or extra deployment cash and they want healthcare for all their issues and 4 kids all from different dudes.

Sometimes you see the sadness deep in their eyes that maybe he did marry a solid 7/10 but she gained 100 lbs over deployment and turned into a baby mill.

It's even worse with Marines they need e-6 to get BAH. Out of the 800-1,000 or so people where I work I think there's 2-3 single e-5s? One of them recently divorced. Command functions are entertaining if only to laugh at all the fat crazy wives.

One of my Navy co-workers married a 49 year old just last week. He's 24 I believe.

As far as stories I got the usual obese dependa coming into medical because her husband Is complaining about her smelly taint multiple times during sex and you know where this story goes. Weeks old tampon.
