It's some national guard unit, I forget which. I know a guy who deployed with them before he went active, and never wears it around here because people keep asking him about when he deployed with I Corps.

Ohio ARNG AFAIK. Whatever BCT.

My only "deployment" was to Kuwait a few months after they took away patches for Kuwait, Qatar, UAE, etc. Although on the upside I had an actual cool job which gave me the opportunity to go hang out in Kuwait City and actually see what the middle east (or at least a small slice of the GCC) is like outside of active combat zones which was genuinely pretty fascinating. I sort of sometimes feel bad about never going to Iraq or Afghanistan, but whatever I probably got the way better end of the deal here.

To do yard work.

Just the pants and boots, though. Going to stain the poo poo out of them with mulch and dirt and grass then probably throw them away. Never having to wear a uniform again feels good.

That's the best case scenario. You probably don't live on post, so you haven't been hearing all of the Blackhawks flying overhead every few minutes. Doesn't bode well.

SOAR dudes getting prepped to go drop off some guys to deep dick some dudes in Syria. Or get deep dicked. Probably both.

Seriously though I was wondering why I was hearing so many blackhawks flying around tonight. I hear one right now in fact.

When Mustang dies in Syria at least we will all be validated in our belief that the Army is eventually going to gently caress him in the rear end.

Yeah, they're definitely SOAR birds. Got a good look at a few of the sorties flying earlier while the sun was still up. Some SOF dudes weekends just got made/ruined based on where they stand on this cluster gently caress.

Edit: Since within 20 minutes of the news breaking and those things flying over I've been drinking.

Of course. No one wants Mustang to die, even if he is a noble.

If you take nothing else away from your service, the one thing we should all know is that these wars are pointless. It is pretty clear today that regardless of where you are on the political spectrum, both parties of this country are enemies of peace and are more than willing to send people to die in another utterly senseless conflict.

Weirdly the enlisted medics that are with me as airborne, ranger, and SOAR candidate holdovers here aren't that hooah right now.

I'm genuinely surprised how little confidence they have in their President.
