I have to get my ASUs updated because our bde SGM is doing a uniform inspection next month (in the national guard). I haven't touched mine since I was in ait and I'm now just a corporal until I get time to go to blc and I'm annoyed because I have to spend money and order all the poo poo on my own then have it changed again after school when I get e5. Where do I buy the loving striped pants smdftb

Have fun showing up to the combatives pit only to find a sign saying they are closed and that you can’t come back until you fill out a form and bring your Platoon Sergeant with you.

We got released at 1400 and then within 5 minutes they blasted out that everyone had to come back and we’ve been sitting around ever since. Hooah.

Ended up paying $90 for my rank, a service bar, and adding nco stripes today. Got a call that a friend in my previous unit died over the weekend and the unit only found out this morning - the viewing is tomorrow. I left class after I got the call and took all my stuff in to get it altered. They didn't have any rank so I'm just going in a suit tomorrow. Just sucks in general.

Just took the bicycle PT test for the first time. That poo poo is no joke. Passed it with 2 minutes and 10 seconds to spare. That might have been my last PT test ever.

You should get NCO trousers issued for free in the Reserve/Guard.

Walk around in your underwear until they issue you new pants. That’s how we roll in the merchant marine.

I saw a series of incredible memos where a union was arguing with a company over whether or not coveralls could be made mandatory, all this language like "the Company may not put forth statements to the effect that coveralls are superior to equivalent shirt and pants" etc I like good coveralls but I've never seen a good pair in the merchant marine that I didn't bring from home

I’d like to try the bike just to try it. I’m not some hardcore cyclist but it’s my typical source of cardio and I spent a year traveling almost exclusively by bike on hills and such.

You'd do fine. You get one gear of your choice to do 10 km on a relatively flat course. The stationary bike one is a bit more of a crap shoot. You gotta do 10 km against a resistance set at 20 newtons; sometimes this is more than your usual resistance, and doesn't allow you to readjust for wind resistance.

Yeah, the stationary bike is no problem as long as you've had a bit of training with it. First time I did it I got to go to the gym and do bike stuff for a month or so, and the actual test was easy as poo poo. Didn't bother doing any bike stuff and the next PT test was way too close for comfort. So much better than pounding your knees into dust on a paved road though.

TBH I've never done it as an event just as a cop out for "individual PT" in the guard when they were instating that as a pre drill policy.

The bike test was pretty weird. You're in a gym surrounded by people going about their daily routine. Every now and again some soldier would come by, look at my digital screen, and tell me that I was doing great and to keep it up. The grader, the other folks taking the test, and me just bullshitted the entire time. *edit* I also had my cellphone and a cup of water on the little shelf in front of me.
