Sigh. A Corry student riding to his first duty station sped away from cops and crashed his bike going over 140mph friday night.

I'm not totally surprised as I saw someguy doing wheelies down the center of base. Still he was a nice friendly outgoing guy. He was hard to miss too as he was about 6'6" black dude in cowboy boots.

As a general rule on these boards its best not to post names of anyone in any incident until it becomes a matter of public record (i.e. hits the news). *shrugs*

I use Medals of America. There are bunches of others, but MoA has pretty good customer service.

Only for ribbons though. Holy gently caress the medals are expensive.

Oh man, apparently some guys out here have to put in a special request to schedule appointments in any portion of medical. Have you guys ran into this at your commands? It seems like a massive way to not only waste time but also have HIPAA violations out the rear end.

Ultrathin.com.

They even send a reusable envelope where you can mail your last set in (with modifications) and get a discounted rate. I've had medals, mini medals, and a couple ribbon racks made through them and they all come out perfect.

You could always just get out and get paid to go to college to dick around for 3-4 years making roughly the same as your military pay just by subbing in bullshit jobs here and there that you can absolutely just say gently caress off and quit.




Basically, if the navy is trying to get you out, gently caress it roll with it and go loving live.

Note this does not apply if you have a fat wife/kids.
