This 26yo E-5 on our team who is somehow on only his first deployment keeps having like weird freak outs and complains constantly despite saying he doesn’t complain at all and his constantly trying to act tough. Basically I’m an idiot because I’m still in this dumb poo poo organization and I’m going to get shot by a man child who threw a hissy fit when we went to a Mediterranean restaurant in Doha because it didn’t have spaghetti. Should be loving slapped every time you complain about “the liberals” while crying about having to take a combat shower and having to share a CHU with one other person. I’m just tired of listening to someone who non stop bitched about Al Udeid despite literally not even being held to a schedule unlike some members of the team and complaining about not going forward then when we forward deploy he just bitches even more about this place. I’ve loving regular deployed to significantly more auster places than where we are at right now and we currently have other teams who come back with pictures of the ditches they slept in but this guy still won’t shut the gently caress up about wanting to go back to Al Udeid. He still won’t even be put on a schedule when we get back but I sure as gently caress would be but you better believe that doesn’t even begin to enter the equation.

What the gently caress quote:Should be loving slapped every time you complain about “the liberals” while crying about having to take a combat shower and having to share a CHU with one other person. Is combat shower what I've read where you only turn on the water for a short period of time before and after you lather? What a loving baby. quote:I’m just tired of listening to someone who non stop bitched about Al Udeid despite literally not even being held to a schedule unlike some members of the team and complaining about not going forward then when we forward deploy he just bitches even more about this place.

Maybe those Navy SEALS had the right idea.

Pretty sure that a combat shower is when a bunch of dudes in uniform all bust a nut on some dude in the center of a circle at the same time.

one of my memorable experiences from my time in the guard was at Annual Training when we were all showing in a big "bay shower" and my platoon leader was discussing his police force's fitness exam and proceeded to tell me how they did the squatting high jump. Good times, good dude...

Eh the two places I’ve gone that have had “combat showers” it was always the water, lather, water showering alone deal. I’ve also only ever seen dirt boys settle their issues with fists and I’m guessing smacking someone isn’t going to go over well in a medical command. It’s not like I don’t complain out here or that others don’t either, like I get it it sucks out here but loving come on I get it’s Air Force medical but it’s not even that bad out here and I try and keep my complaints minimal and definitely don’t air them out in front of our team lead who has had to talk to him more than once since he told her to shut up after she told him to stop complaining. The only reason I made the first post at all was because his millionth complaint out here was that I smack my lips while I eat but instead of just saying that he spends about three minutes complaining about how it’s annoying and I need to stop doing it then he started rubbing his temples and mumbling to himself and it took almost everything in me to not throw some homosexual slurs at him and take a swing at his tistic face and I figured posting was healthier than that.

A combat shower is when you jump in the muddy ditch and drink the water, cleaning you out of both ends.

We rigged a decon tent to let us take showers when we were in Haiti and apparently there was a "purge" button that made it shoot out boiling loving water or something. Felt like it, but to be honest all day in the Haiti heat and anything but cold water is gonna feel hot. That cold water felt so loving good. Also, people always looked at me for bringing buckets into the field until they need something to wash themselves with. It cost no room to take them either, just put the bucket in at the bottom of your stupid A bag before you pack it.

One wipe for face/neck/pits in that order, one for shaft/sack/crack in that order. You sleep a ton better not sticking to yourself every time you move around.

What was nice was being able to heat up a lot of water in ammo cans using the tank exhaust. Still pretty much a whore bath but a wet washcloth beats a baby wipe.

Fort Wainwright had to condemn an entire neighborhood before anyone even moved in because contractors tested the soil and found some nasty contaminants (and getting the area designated as a superfund site). http://www.newsminer.com/news/local...19bb30f31a.html quote:Army officials originally thought the contamination was limited to a small area of the 54-acre site, but further testing revealed the presence of PCBs over a wider area. Contractors eventually dug up nearly 8 acres, reaching depths of up to 18 feet, and removed more than 3,300 cubic yards of contaminated soil. Workers also removed more than 300 tons of scrap metal that included a mix of training munitions, inert bombs, tank treads, old rocket fins and parts of bazooka rounds.
