Blue pants with a black jacket isn’t a bad look but the Army dress uniform looks like a clown show to me. It’s also pretty awesome that I don’t remember specifically what that dress uniform is called. Maybe my brain is scrubbing the army away.

If you’re counting the days, Mustang, just how many is it until you hit 20 years?

My first real introduction to an e9 was when I was cutting through the grass instead of walking on the sidewalk. Exactly the way you imagine it going is probably how it went.

You should have two ratings. An army and a VA. My army rating footed the bill for the three months while I waited on the VA.

I decided the army wasn’t for me when I sent my dudes home to be with their newborn babies and got yelled at for taking the trash out instead of making my dudes sit around and doing nothing waiting for 1sgt. And THEN I went to Camp Casey.

i joined in 2009 and got out in 2014. the ways people smoked weed changed drastically and blew my mind. dabs are not bongs. my cousin let me hit his dab rig and i kept waiting for him to pull the bowl out so i could inhale the smoke, not knowing i was inhaling smoke the entire time. if you've done dabs, you know how much of a problem this is.

I have random dreams about deployment or patrols in a random non-Afghanistan place. I go through cycles where I’ll dream for a few weeks and then I won’t dream for several months. These days though most of my “nightmares” are about something happening to Monty. I went through a phase of deployment night terrors but they were so consistent for so long that I got used to them and they don’t really bother me anymore. In fact, I would look forward to the dreams because it meant I could hang out with my friends that died.

Mustang posted:It will never cease to amaze me how seemingly simple things become stupidly difficult and complicated in the Army. Things like not being a dumbass and getting out? If you’re not out in the next, say, year, then I think you revoke your right to bitch because you obviously enjoy it enough to stay.

You know what’s better than staying in for some ETS leave benefit? ETSing. Stop putting your career in other people’s hands and get out if you hate it so much. If YOU are going to put the army before YOU, then guess what the army is going to prioritize. I guess my point is that at this point, your situation is your own fault. colachute fucked around with this message at 00:47 on Aug 9, 2019 |

Mustang’s stars constantly align in the shittiest way possible and he keeps going back for more and I said it a while ago that he’s just IDR on an alt account. I think someone made the comment in the IDR thread that he should have lied about having some lovely staff job because it would actually be believable.

When we got back from Afghanistan our BC said we would be getting three days and four days and life would be pretty easy for several months. We were back in the field within 30 days. Someone was ballsy enough to bring it up to our (new) 1sgt and he said “I wasn’t 1sgt when he said that” and we went to the field.

i'm going to constantly live stream everything. pt? live stream. staying until 6pm doing abso-loving-lutely nothing except waiting for 1sgt to get his head out of his rear end? live stream. private dumbass doing keg stands with no pants on while specialist idiot holds him up and simultaneously makes out with his meth-head wife he married just so he could move out of the barracks, with two other morons playing "gay chicken" in the background? live stream. the next war will be livestreamed if they bring me back in. and so will every other thing our brave warriors do on the weekends. colachute fucked around with this message at 11:59 on Aug 12, 2019 |

If I give it too much thought, I feel legit guilty about my deployment. We accomplished nothing except a high body count on both sides. A lot of broke people and broken families, and a lot of carnage and death to the locals. And if the US were invaded by a foreign military (a legit one, not a republican contrived one based on racism) you know what I might do? Set some roadside bombs or shoot at them. But hey at least I got college out of it, right?
