Nope they're closed so I'll have to try tomorrow. I'm in a hospital so we have some clothing and sales but honestly not much of a selection. I'll look a little closer tomorrow though.

You don't know the half of it. My last few years I had an incredibly cushy job as an instructor in a super air conditioned building doing mostly what I wanted to do. When I got out I hadn't even met my company commander or my first sergeant since they had been replaced a year or more earlier and I had absolutely zero reasons to interact with my company.

Whoops. My bad for bringing both of my feet back from Afghanistan without being torn to shreds. White socks are scrub-tier POG poo poo as gently caress.

Okay, but this is idiotic. Your piss has all the bacteria in your body already so its completely ineffective at preventing foot disease, since your foot cells are used to it. You need to find a piss buddy to spray your feet in the shower, and dont be a buddy fucker, spray his in return. Nothing gay either, just a quick spray from each of you will keep you disease free and even prevent blisters. Protip: yeah it works everywhere and prevents some stds, but thats usually crossing a line for some people so stick to feet and maybe hands if youre in the field. Ask doc if you dont believe me.

Statistically a piece of my information was already probably in their hands from neglect in the system anyway. I'm probably safer now than I was before

I'm absolutely sure S1 has hosed me over in regards to letting my information out into the wild.

However, after running my credit before I apply for a lease, it has either been destroyed (probably by accident), or my identity has been stolen by the most fiscally responsible of criminals.

I know someone from Fort Gordon stole my identity to get cable installed in their trailer. Unfortunately I couldn't get Richmond County Sheriff to get off their lazy asses and investigate or so much as file a report even when I gave them the guy's home address. Luckily I had credit monitoring from USAA so I caught it before it turned into anything else, but still pisses me off.

Grossly incompetent doesn't begin to describe it.

Your S1 -- "May as well just email it to the Chinese "

That or some Chinese Intel schmuck is gonna realize how ridiculously overpaid we are, yet what terrible spending decisions Joe makes.

My last unit actually had one of the companies pac clerks steal like 20 socials (if I remember correctly it was all the females in the BN) on her way out of the Army. She did the whole stolen identity thing and started cranking through credit cards. Last I heard she was still running around the south with a few people's identities.

The last time I touched a gun that shoots bullets was last time I qualified a year ago and my ~31~ outshot every other soldier in the company except one last weekend.

Except i live in oklahoma where the only things more common than carhartt jackets, lifechurch.tv, and indian casinos are the loving inhabitants who own like 2-3 guns minimum per household how is 32 a company high :psyduck:



For reference, when they call the list of people who failed APFTs, over half the company falls out

Being a dumb hick with your daddy's deer gun at home that you only finger gently caress once a year to "zero" it and then get drunk and shoot deer from your truck on the side of the road within 100 meters doesn't make you a good shot. Bubbas like to think they're good shots, though.

That's pretty much it. Also, people not seeing guns as the tools they are and turning them into dick extensions. Sorry sunshine, your ego does not correlate to any kind of proficiency with firearms, maybe go home and examine your sense of self worth and why it's so bad.

Now with 25% more kimchee.
I actually zeroed really well and still shot bad on paper both optics and iron sights. Difference being I take all day with my zero shots and am rushed as hell on the qual shots as well as not good at unsupported or kneeling. On popup targets I can barely see 300 meters let alone hit anything. Since we only shoot once a year to qual, there isn't much focus on how to get from marksman to sharpshooter or expert. Are these experts hiring personal firing coaches on their downtime or something?
