i haven't done anything meriting a tattoo that has anything to do with the military. I think TRADOC 198th 2nd Battalion 54th IR "Mailed Foot Brave and Bold" scrawled across my back is too much too soon.

Couple thousand years of civilization later- and we killed how many wagon burners and carted in silver backs to clothe everyone, and we wind up with that tattoo someday being all that stands between me, my chosen golden corral buffet, and a soviet/sino/nazi work camp outside of New-un-Detroit.

From now on I'm gonna live on a diet solely of frozen pancakes and order / use any and all fitness equipment / supplements endorsed by a U.S. Navy Seal, I'm preparing for the quickening- because the guy who had the Sistine chapel of motto cuck splooged in ink on his back there isn't gonna keep charlie and his railroad building cousins from putting a boot to me and mines neck.

This must be what Sagan felt like when he saw the pale blue dot.

Someone should create a tool for veterans that parses BAH payments by most-least per area and what areas have public universities, there could be some technical college in Hawaii that is in some place that gets like 4k for BAH for all we know

milk it for what it's worth

We don't want to work. Also, all we care about is E-5 w/ dependents. That's what the GI Bill pays out, regardless of rank.

Speaking of which: was it just my company, or is it common practice to only issue trainees a single pair of ballistic earplugs for 9+ weeks of low crawling through sand and mud? I washed mine every chance I got but was still fighting ear infections for the duration.

You get 1 pair for the entirety of training. Any training we got 1 for 14 weeks. Makes your ears hearty

Uh the combat arms earplugs (the ones you get fitted for in basic) are meant to be reusable. They're pretty good for non-electronic earpro.

Do yourself a favor and get a pair of these electronic muffs: http://www.amazon.com/Howard-Leight-R-01526-Electronic-Earmuff/dp/B001T7QJ9O as they loving own and will fit under an ACH.
