oh gently caress "glide path" someone brought that term over to usarec and made it basically an official word in my BN, though I suspect Brigade. The COL who claims that he "built rakkasans gym" or something like that

And when we went to the field he wore this hosed up kit belt that was like 6" tall and covered in gadgets including a giant bowie knife, air assault rigging carabiner looking crap, etc. He was super chill when he found out I was PCSing, though. No just kidding, he locked me up during a field exercise and screamed in my face for leaving that piece of poo poo unit even though he knew it was my plan from day one. Fucker tried to get me to stay with the unit for a deployment rather than PCS for training.

So equally as buzzwordy and dumb.

Glide path is originally an aviation term My immediate boss quotes directly from ADRP 3-0 and loves the term 'shared understanding', its the most infuriating thing ever

Everytime a LTC and up comes to talk to us they use almost nothing but doctrine speak and consequently I can't remember a thing any of them have ever talked about. Well, except when LTG Thomas talked to us about how "business is good." I always swore to never use "tracking" but somehow it works its way into my vocabulary every once in a while. Generally I try to talk like a normal person just laced with far too much profanity.

in a crowded theatre briefing with 1000 soldiers, you hear a single faint beep from a phone, somewhere. Followed by a long and loud 60 decibel sigh.....

somewhere else in the army, a field grade officer is getting his daily brief that has been dragging on 45 minutes too long his phone rings "heh GUYS you'll have to excuse me....its household six" this is followed by a polite chuckle the door shuts behind the colonel, one of the junior officers considers slamming his head down on the table, but reconsiders, because he would hate to not get invited to go to the colonels house later in the year, and suck his dick

its sergeants time training, and you've been tasked with the dummy grenade training. This is a big deal because maybe the post commander??? would see it and think we're high speed. Better get told to be there 4 hours early to lay down a circle of engineer tape for you "range"

Everyone hates big brigade morale runs, even the guy leading it. the "morale" gained is feeling his cock head rub on his pt shorts, while tripping on the most petty illusion of power

Similarly, guessing someones life on Benning sucks right now, M4 was lost during an EIB lane and there's still wanted posters for it. Apparently it wasn't reported missing until several days had passed.

Apparently it wasn't reported missing until several days had passed. Sometimes I wonder if GIP was talking about the time we lost an M4 at Pickett in 2011 Can't wait till they get the ATF/feds involved in that one! Get hosed for still being in! Get hosed for being tangentially related to the person who lost A Thing so you are equally as culpable! They can't rule out that Every Single Person is a criminal who stole that M4.

I was responsible for a lost m203 that ultimately just ended up with some slaps on the wrist for everyone involved, me getting trumped at mast in front of the rest of the gang, and I had to send one or two emails off the ship with some forms. Turns out you can lose a lot of weapons and unless it's a routine thing or a lot of high explosives go missing (lol seals) no one really seems to care.

I didn't personally lose it. My guys couldn't find it one day and brought me the inventory report like it was there and I never went and checked them all by serial number because I was lazy and doing other things. Most likely an outgoing  took it with him. We get into deployment and a new chief and I are doing inventory and we come up one short. Couldnt find it anywhere on the ship.

They lost an ASIPS on a jump up in Alaska a little while back. Dude didn't have it tied off, and that thing hit the muskeg at terminal velocity so hard it buried itself too deep for them to find. They looked for a couple days, but they gave up after not too long. Sucks for the guy that lost it, lost a rank or two. It's still out there somewhere.

I lost my firing pin when cleaning my weapon at the range during basic, I told the ds it didnt have one though since it was our first range and he believed me and I got no punishment. I also had a CO in another company in my old BN who lost like a $2 million helicopter part and they only found out about it during his change of command sign over.

Fuckers in my bn borrowed a Scope when they went to NTC and forgot to tell my supply sgt. I did a 100% inventory for the change of command and it turned up missing. Of course they couldn't do a shakedown while in the box but the paperwork showed up pretty quickly once we realized they "borrowed" our night vision scope...

Hillary Clintons Thong posted:no one outside of a CGO is worried about a missing m4 dude I wish, when we lost our M4 the ATF was going to investigate since Pickett is so close to the state line that it somehow became a potential interstate/federal crime. I guess the circumstances behind its disappearance was the reason why: it was straight up stolen out of the longhouse, not misplaced. What ended up happening was some Marines who were also there for training stole it as a "heh fuckin' army!!!!" prank, but they got scared shitless when they realized that the Army wouldn't just laugh it off like some sort of fraternity rivalship so they planted it in some rusty locker in the woods and played dumb. Fuckers still stole the aimpoint off it, that was never recovered. Justin Tyme fucked around with this message at 23:54 on Mar 26, 2016 |
