He was a very capable commander during Guadalcanal and onward. And he spent more time caring about the troops and the task than he did caring about the look and the decorum. So now people point to him as the reason why the look and the decorum is so important. Because Chesty was a real marine and you can't let him down.

"Even that event, which was covered by news organizations around the world, failed to register with another member of the unit, who attempted to schedule Teixeira for duty two weeks after his arrest. That action, following “a monumental national news event occurring within the unit,” was a “stark example of [the member’s] lack of situational awareness or appreciation for the gravity of the matter,” the investigation found." For some reason that reminds me of this scene: https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8io094 Start at 24 minutes in, watch just over 1 minute from that starting point. Just that same level of absolutely complete lack of knowledge of the world around them.

This is unlikely to motivate posters to stop dumping info on those forums. It might end up being the largest trove of info for several national intel agencies though. Imagine if poo poo posting could win wars (instead of doing damage to your own side) as long as you posted classified info with each post.

Is it me or is the dude next to him getting the flag ready for his family? Cause that is a stone cold way of signaling to the NCOs that he isn't having anything to do with these chucklefucks. SerthVarnee fucked around with this message at 08:49 on Feb 6, 2024 |

Grunts have "field modded" equipment since the invention of grunts. This will either work just fine or it will be added to the manual as "do not".

Maybe they'll get that moron from the distant past of the idiots thread. The one who "fixed" a small hole in a fighter jet by stuffing his chewing gum in there. He did this after the pilot doing the walkaround had noticed it and mentioned it. He even cheerfully announced that he had "fixed" it. So now he is just cheerfully stuffing every single part of the fence with chewing gum before the holding the gate open for the officer.

So how many airmen would you say would be needed to pool their resources? Asking for an entire command chain.

I mean, how bad can it be right? It's not like they'll make you drive the bus to the pier and have you end up ramming into a nuclear sub while dozing off...again.

Malachite_Dragon posted:I need to play Helldivers 2, I'm hearing Yes. It is a fantastic game and as long as you complete your objectives, the game doesn't give a poo poo about you actually making it out alive. Of course you don't get the samples out if you don't make it out, but those are just used to give you upgrades. Super Earth cares about the mission, not the men. Actually, let me just link you the intro. It tells you everything you need to know (survival ratio isn't brought up, but you don't really need to know about those). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQZ35YHKEUs SerthVarnee fucked around with this message at 18:55 on Sep 30, 2024 |
