We had one prior service marine who joined the guard, but he was actually a really chill guy, albeit he didn't give a single gently caress about anything military related except when we deployed where it was all business.

Ended up ETS'ing after 6 years and became a lawyer.

I did flight nursing in the civilian world. It's the best loving job in the entire universe. If you don't do it then gently caress you and I hate you.

I miss flying so god drat much, my last job was seriously the greatest job that I could have ever wanted at my point in life

There has GOT to be a better method than that.

You would think so, but a lot of the new/emerging research with stuff like bleeding control/heat casualties and anything army medical related is actually pro top tier via the DOD.

So until the army tells medics to stop sticking fingers up buttholes it's gonna be standard of practice for a while.

I remember being 16 and one of my dad's cohorts at the staff college at ft. Leavenworth heard that I wanted to join the army. He was some colonel who went to West point and I believe was infantry. He told me to go to college and get a degree that matters instead of joining the army.

Hindsight that was really weird to hear from someone like him..

I write to you all as i begin my departure towards Jannah, do not be sorry for me as I do this to fight the infidels of D&D, do not mourn for me as I will be in the high spirits and praise of Allah himself. I go into battle with D&D and my pictures to oppress the western infidels. I long await my 72 hours of probation and increased porn watching time. I will conduct Jihad against our enemies.

ALLAHU ACKBARRRR!

I remember during basic training we were forced to buy the platoon Shirts or whatever that had some stupid skull with a stetson and cross sabers going through the eyes or something dumb and of course the slogan *if you ain't cav you aint poo poo*. I was loving pissed that I had to spend $20 for some idiotic stupid bullshit that a near autistic *not the talented kind* private drew that had all of our names on the back. I had my money saved up to buy a 360 and an HD tv, that poo poo was cutting into my gaming funds.

Grad school is best school

As long as you can show you're not an inbred douche who can't think critically you shouldn't have a problem getting into grad school.

It's a second chance for butt peeping and acting like a college student, although you are much smarter and experienced than some 18 year old gently caress boy living on his own for the first time.


If you can though go to a literal brick and mortar grad school... Don't go online

Nice and hot piss
Feb 1, 2004

There's a big difference in experience and personality of a grad student in comparison to a sophomore in undergrad. There's nothing wrong with going to school online but if you have the opportunity to go to school and get extra funds for living expenses you get a vastly different experience than doing your work from home.

If you end up being a GTA though you'll hate your life since you have to deal with undergrads but your tuition is paid for soooo FYGM

During my TCCC course this week our instructors were pretty cool dudes, was able to get some motivation in the group and one of the students was a prior 10th mountain medic who let out a HOOAAAAAH at one point during the training.


I had an anger stroke

Not the kind that involves a dick either :(

Where in Kansas? I was raised at Leavenworth/Ft.Leavenworth and went to college/worked in Manhattan.

I'm in Oregon right now, it's seriously loving awesome up in the PNW. Absolutely the complete opposite in terms of Kansas where you have huge forests to hike in, mountains surrounding you, dry climate so very little humidity....

Also the Southwest is pretty awesome if you're into the whole "no snow" thing.

an 8+ in the army is like a 3 in the civilian standards so your dating pool is like 400 fold what the civilian 8 would be.
