Guys go in with chisels and try to determine what the food item was that everything else started to form around. Anal reconstructive surgery is covered by Tri-Care, so that's a bonus.

Ace of Baes posted:I know you guys are laughing but I figure Id either end up delivering pizza or something but from talking to people uber seems to pay better, especially if I stay in CO springs, anyone else have suggestions for part time flexible work that allows me to go to school full time while making enough to scrape by? I did it the other way around. Worked full time, went to night classes part time. Also fit in National Guard in there. Even though I didn't max out my credit hours for BAH it worked for me. If you can make all your classes night classes it might be better off for you. I did this for my masters so I don't know if going for bachelors on this plan will work as well.

Went to dental to clear up that ugly red in MEDPROS today and instead of a routine cleaning, I got a doctor who was super pumped to see me and enthusiastically recommended me for some orthodontic surgery. He said I'm the perfect candidate and the folks over in the ortho department are looking for cases like mine. Aside from that being a little strange to hear, it is something I've been considering. I've had jaw issues my whole life and was hoping the Army would do something about it when I joined. My first year was in AIT, so I wasn't going to be in one place long enough before PCSing, so they said I didn't qualify. My next duty station said I was an excellent candidate, but they no longer performed the procedure there and they quit referring to civilian practitioners, so "better luck next time." Now I'm at my second duty station and have a shot at this... but I may not have enough time left before ETS. Doc wouldn't tell me exactly how much time is required, since it's actually up to another person and I can't get an appointment with them until after this 4 day. Now... I'm not interested in re-enlisting. I do have a one-year period between my ETS date and my wife graduating school that I need to fill, either as a DAC/contractor, working outside of the whole gov't thing, or... extending? How does extending work? I read through the regs and it doesn't seem like there's a way for me to be eligible, but at the same time I've known people who extended for a year and they also didn't seem to meet any of the criteria. If I do have to have more time before being eligible for this procedure, and I am eligible to extend, I may consider extending. Also, have any of you guys who had surgery (especially dental/orthodontic surgery) regretted it? My experiences with Army medicine have put me a little on my guard, but this seems like it could be a decent opportunity. That, or I could wind up looking like the guy in the seance scene of Beetlejuice who has his jaw fall off.

I got a fake tooth and its that legit fake tooth poo poo where they put some metal in your mouth and then match the color and all that instead of bridging or some poo poo. It was and still is awesome. But I've also had something like 7 surgeries (probably closer to nine) since being in the military. That wasn't one of them.

It was pretty sweet when they did mine. I could feel my whole kinda receive the torsion from screwing that drat thing into the bone. It was both awesome and terrifying.

It was both awesome and terrifying. Yeah, implant with the screw drilled into my mouth and everything. I was happy because that tooth died during basic training, like I could suck on it and draw blood out, so they tried to pull it and it just came apart. 6 years later I got the replacement. Never ever get a bridge.

Went to the dentist for a cleaning here on post. Twenty years of cleanings and exams and he's the first dentist to notice or say anything about all the cement left on the backs of my teeth from the braces I had as a teen. He went at it for about ten minutes and afterwards my teeth feel completely different in a good way. Real friendly guy too, who talked about a book of short stories he wrote called Hard Head City.

My current unit is mad at me for being dental class II. Except that LHI won't generate a voucher to pay for it, and my normal cleaning isn't until April. So lol SMDFTB.

I guess they figured if they couldn't gently caress me with cold, they'd gently caress me with snow. Orders just came in to go from Richardson to Drum. And the day after they posted my orders, Army Times says they're sending a bunch of dudes from Drum to Afghanistan in the winter. Hmmmm.

Have fun running on hardpack snow-ice in -20°F because hooah, motherfucker. I hope you love rucking and actively seek to be the best (at having the musculoskeletal issues of an 80 year old) you can be. If you're going to 1BDE I probably know the medics you'll have.

When I was there, we were required to do 20 minutes of PT upside every day regardless of the weather. The rest could be inside the barracks or gym or whatever. It was also mandatory to ruck once a week. I'm glad my squad didn't pay any attention to those BS rules at least.

There is something so beautifully Army about foregoing the superior warmth of gloves just to comfortably break a useless "rule" that based entirely on the appearance of professionalism aka impotent E-8 erection-fuel.

Been wearing these Multicam FR ACU's or whatever they're called in the field recently, seems like a superior uniform to the new OCP's. Wonder why the Army didn't just pick this uniform to replace the ACU's. Flame resistant and also seems pretty good at repelling water, better than the material used for ACU's/OCP's anyway. They're comfortable as gently caress too, like wearing pajamas.

I didn't have the crotch in any pair last longer than a month. Which is fine when your're out there letting your dingle dangle in the dirt but it pretty quickly moved down to the rest of leg even on the ones that weren't too hosed up to be stitched back together. More than one guy had them tear down past the knees.

They're comfortable as gently caress too, like wearing pajamas. The ACU pattern got chose because Crye Precision wouldn't give the government a good enough deal on Multicam. From what I understand the only reason they use it now is because they've changed it slightly and don't actually call it Multicam in any official capacity.
