spacetoaster posted:Why would anyone sharpen a saber? Historically they were not sharpened because they don't need to be. You're hitting people with them from a running horse. Besides, it's been known for a couple centuries now that the point beats the edge. That's why the last of the cavalry sabers were straight-bladed

A while back I was doing a recon module. It's the middle of the night and I don't feel like making GBS threads in the middle of the night loc or whatever the correct recon procedure is so I stumble off far enough that the staff won't see any spoil, scrape out a little hole and hope that I'm hitting the hole and covering over the right place since there's hardly any light. All very fine. In the morning we go down the hill and RV with the rest of the course and spend the morning on lessons. After lunch we go up the hill and the instructors have set up a demonstration OP on top of the hill. The instructors boot is about two inches away from the hollow in the ground where I covered my poo poo with about one inch of soil. Well that's my poo poo story, hope you liked it.

When I was in Afghanistan we had a cash for work program and child labor laws didn't mean poo poo so we had kids filling sandbags for us. And I'm talking like, 7 year olds. Anyway we were out in the middle of nowhere and our only place to poo poo was in these big holes dug right in the center of our outpost. Long story short I took a poo poo in front of like 60 kids.

One of my the drill sergeants in my troop at Knox liked calling Fiddler's Green as a cadence. Can't tell you what his name was, but somehow Fiddler's Green is still in my head.

Most combat arms poo poo is dumb as gently caress but tanker tradition dictates steak and eggs after table 6 or 8 or whatever it is. And not that bogus dfac bullshit either.

We went on a staff ride once to a battle field from the Indian Wars that my unit took part in, the tribe we fought lived on a reservation nearby. Awkward. We ate dinner in a tiny nearby town, local news crew came by because we must have been the most interesting thing that's happened there since my unit came through like 140 years ago. Unless you're in an ABCT it seems like you don't get a stereotypical cav experience with all the horses and ceremony and poo poo.

My first roommate was some cav guy who was forced to spend about half of his first paycheck on that dumb hat, because his unit said everyone had to have one. He did not like me telling him that it looked stupid and that his unit was screwing him.

Being a forced reclass to a scout and not knowing a thing about any of their garbage, my response to their saying I need to get some tanker knockoff boots and a dumb hat and some other poo poo totalling up like nearly a grand was "ha! Are you out of your loving mind" did not make for an easy transition. Also asking the question "what the gently caress is fiddler's green" I might as well have hosed myself in the rear end with a crucifix. To be honest I still don't know if it's army thing or a scout thing but fiddler's green sounds like a child molesters golf course.

Kinda got the opinion that one was the FOB version of extra duty for fuckups though. I mean still god drat retarded because loving cav paint on the ground in Afghanistan what the hell? But they weren't there all the time 24/7.
