There was an LT in my company who "accidently" got "hit" by a car during the run portion of the PT test. I added those in quotations because he kind of just got himself nudged by a passing car. But holy poo poo, stabbed? I just faked diarrhea once.

I ran one with pneumonia. I almost blacked out after the run, but I still passed. Went to the ER after and got some nice cough syrup and an instruction to not leave my house for the next three days and rest.

I have a poo poo memory so some of the details might be off, but we someone go awol onboard ship. It was either on LHD-2 or LHA-5 sometime between 2005 and 2007. The moron in question had gotten in some kind of trouble and had his liberty restricted, extra duty, basically his life was about to suck more than usual. We happened to be underway at the time, and soon after he received the bad news, he just sort of disappeared. Man overboard gets called and we spend the rest of the day tearing the place apart and doing laps all over the pacific.

Story goes that someone from his division was cleaning in their fan room (where the air conditioning and related ventilation ducting is for a given space) and kept finding wrappers and trash. After the second or third time the person doing the finding heard something, looked up, and there was the dumbass in question. He had built himself a little nest on top of some ducting near the ceiling in the back, and even had some snacks to hold over for the 15-30 days left until we got to wherever the hell we were going. Dude thought he was just going to survive on slim-jims and redbull until the heat died down, then just walk off the boat once we hit port and disappear properly.

This was after the CO had given a heartfelt "he was a dedicated sailor and will be missed speech" over the 1MC, and wasted millions in fuel looking for him, so I imagine they seriously considered throwing him over just so it wouldn't have been a complete waste.

Okay I get the stabbing part, but why stomach? The gut is a pretty sensitive area and if her stabber punctured her just at the right place, she could be wishing her whole life that all she ever did was fail a physical test instead of hiring someone stab her in the drat digestive system.

I know right. Why not the leg or something, or the meaty part of the rear end? I mean people can milk a rolled ankle for weeks a legit stab wound will get you months. It makes the plan that much more baffling.

Do you think someone who would get another person to stab them so they can avoid doing a few pushups and a little run is thinking about any of that?

Because the only way to get out of the abdominal circumference portion of the AFPT is to either be pregnant or have had recent abdominal surgery. Something tells me she wasn't exactly the most svelte of people and knew she would bust that portion, so stab to the stomach means surgery, which means no abdominal taping.

Most abdominal surgery doesn't actually get that exemption. You have to get something beyond your average laparotomy to have a prayer, and even that tiny possibility is a very recent addition. I have a hard time imagining surgery that would get you an exception that wouldn't just result in con leave instead.

According to her linked in and google+ profiles, she's not that bad in terms of the BCA -- she would have easily passed the rope & choke. Seems she might be coming off the postpartum waiver though. Mighta been her first PRT since delivering her child and she just panicked, having not done any PT since being diagnosed as pregnant.

The weird thing is they actually did a good job with the air-to-air comms. That was a decent picture call, although they anchored the opposite group from what they wanted, and the flight lead that decided to have the escorts BEHIND the strikers is a moron.

Some :nms: highlights from the trial of this shitbag I used to work with.

quote:

On Thursday, two of Greene’s alleged victims, who were sisters ages 10 and 8 at the time, took the stand to give emotional testimony of their alleged sexual abuse while in Greene’s care.

quote:

The girl also told of another time that Greene allegedly encouraged her to strip to her underwear and nap on a futon in his apartment. She said Greene then lied down next to her and kissed her on her underpants.

quote:

The younger sister also alleged that Greene had placed his hand on her crotch while giving her a ride in his Jeep.

Apparently he doesn't think being a child rapist is a deep enough hole to have dug oneself into, and he's accused all his victims of being liars. Also he bought that Jeep with his GTC, and then didn't pay it off on time. Remarkably he was still kept around for a while after that.

The only thing I heard of that can wipe your steps is doing an ATM withdrawal and buying with cash, but even then you're supposed to have receipts or something.

And now I'm imagining the cost of a Jeep divided by ATM max withdrawals multiplied by service fees.
