Stay strong, fort wainwright! https://www.adn.com/article/20150319/racial-thursdays-under-investigation-fort-wainwright Reminder that this is the same battalion where a soldier (Danny Chen) got hazed to the point of suicide while we were deployed to Afghanistan in 2011-2012.

Ugh, retards. If you're going to have a racial day you make it every day, that way nothing seems out of the ordinary. The platoon I went to Afghanistan with had some of the most blatantly racist people I've ever met in it. friend of the family this, spic that, kike, whatever. Nobody gave a poo poo though. It was racial harmony. E: We had a few black dudes and a large population of spanish people. If we can all get along even though like 50% of the people were racist as gently caress, why can't everyone else?

Safety stand down day. Just had an EO briefing this morning where we talked about how "Racial Thursday" isn't acceptable. Pretty sure the post-lunch SHARP brief will touch on how it isn't good to rape children and murder their mothers.

As long as your side doesn't gently caress up as much as the bad guys, you'll be alright! WW2 was just a series of out-loving-up each other. Now I wanna hear some sweet hosed up idiot poo poo about modern Russian conscripts that make even the worse US stories seem tame, those are always fun.

Drill as non-primary staff at a reserve brigade headquarters is the most shamtastic thing. "Well, we have nothing planned staff-wise for this morning. So uh, everyone go do what you need to do and meet back here after lunch."

When asked about what you did after college be as vague as possible. Being the enlisted guy with a degree is dumb enough.

Skipping the trainup means they're probably going to get their poo poo pushed in, but they're miles ahead of Worst Cav so far. It's still pretty early in the game, though, plenty of time to drive bradleys into ditches still. I've got a friend out there, too, kinda hoping he doesn't get smushed napping under a tank or something.

Isn't there some kind of regulation that says you get 24 months in garrison before you deploy again? A friend of mine just got to Hawaii and his unit is set to deploy to some wacky places like Indonesia, and he just got back from Afghanistan in like... November. Apparently they are that unit that is on worldwide call or some bullshit. I don't know how that works.

I'm not sure. I know on the reserve side, we're only supposed to deploy once every 5 years, and if we go more often, they give you a bunch of extra leave. I would imagine it'd be the same on active duty. E: granted this was in the Marines so it could be different.

If anyone is being serious about saying a regulation about dwell time will get you out of something the commander wants I'm rather impressed at your optimism. Anything like that has a skazillion and a half loopholes because gently caress you and the only thing that really matters is how bad someone up the food chain wants you to go. If they want it bad enough they'll find the paper work to cram that green weenie so far up your rear end you'll brush your teeth with it.

This may have been the case back when the Army was busy taking care of the Bush Administration's back to back fuckups, but they're pretty good about honoring dwell time these days because there's a billion people chomping at the bit for some sweet stripper wife and Camaro deployment cash. Like it's to the point where it's almost impossible to get sent to Afghanistan with a 3 in MEDPROS.
