You know that recurring theme every couple years where you look back at the kind of person you were and the poo poo you did and go, "Holy gently caress, that was retarded. What the hell was wrong with me?" Watching other people go full retard and enlist is like a guilt-free schadenfreude buffet version of that, instead of reflecting on your own gently caress-ups you just get to watch the train wreck happen right in front of you from start to finish.

If it was anyone but my nephew, I'd just laugh every time they told me their next step in becoming enlisted.txt. I think I'll just go kick him in the head a few times and get that stupid loving idea out of his head.

Maybe you should just laugh at him. That might get it through.

YEAH BECAUSE WHAT THE gently caress DOES SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN IN THE MILITARY KNOW ABOUT BEING IN THE MILITARY telling people to not join the military because of what you went through, and then them joining anyway, is like you getting crabs from a girl and telling your buddy that she has crabs, and he fucks her anyway and then is surprised he got crabs.

So you can go to leg units if you fail now.

not caring here posted:Why the gently caress would people do that? Because afaik even if option 4 (airborne) contracts run out, you could still get option 40 (RASP) which came with airborne school. Pre-RASP was a clusterfuck before they made that change, I wonder how different it is now.

Yes, let's move formation up and hour and a half to 6am so we have plenty of time to do our motivating formation run. Because there's nothing that inspires morale like making everyone wake up at 4:30 in the morning on a Sunday so they can jog at a 12mph pace while singing stupid songs. And that extra time we saved will definitely be put to good use because we're an HHC.

My dad tried for years to tell me not to join the army, then I told him it was the NEW army, and found out it is no different from the vietnam era.

I read a book a while back that said that for the Vietnam draft, because there was so many dudes that just didn't want to be there, they want to this TOTAL CONTROL 100% ADHESION TO RULES YES ESPECIALLY THE STUPID ONES abortion that we've got now. The problem being that we didn't change back. I don't believe it, I'm sure the army has been gay forever, and the people in charge are the turds that put up with it that long because they are terrified of the real world. As they should be.

The problem being that we didn't change back. My grandpa was in the Army around the time of the Korean War, and he said he hated that part of his life the most. It might have more to do with the fact he lived in a quonset hut at a tiny-rear end Greenland radar post than the Army being gay at the time, though. He died before I was in so I never got to ask him about the gayness of the Army then vs now. Back then though even if everyone was cool to each other and did things in a common-sense way, you still had to live in those bigass bays with everyone else and only had foot/wall lockers to store your poo poo vs the single man studio apartments with walk-in closets we have now. What was a young enlisted man to do back then when he wanted to rail out some townie girl in the barracks? Justin Tyme fucked around with this message at 20:15 on Jun 28, 2015 |

The problem being that we didn't change back. After WW2, the military was so gigantic and so top heavy, the whole general's club just turned into a nepotism circle jerk of guys who earned their way up hooking up their buddies who didn't. Begin Korea era, political appointment desk jockey Army commanders bungle their section spectacularly and the Marines clean house so the cluster can retreat. There was a book that came out a few years ago called The Generals that goes through the downward spiral of military command in the modern day. Absolutely worth the read.
