they still do dumb dumb things in crowded sea lanes. I read the flag reports and get to watch presentations on it.

it got better with ISM codes but then everybody got complacent again. I mean it’s still better than pre ISM but it’s becoming a problem for the clubs.

lmao if Trump leaking nuclear secrets ends up giving another country a material advantage and they just gloat about where the information came from.

I don’t know about boring itself, it just would be a little awkward to watch repair crews have to go back and forth fixing turbines.

They were in West Germany, I think there still is a US competition between armoured units of some sort.

e: We had Iron Man, Patrol Competition, FOO Competition, Gun Det Competition, Marksmanship and Top Medic annually.

(bells)

The United States Advanced Field Medic school is where hand picked army field medics and navy corpsman learn new ways to say “drink water” and “actually I’m totally the equivalent of a real medical professional” while failing to diagnose something obvious like a broken arm or something.

To its students and instructors, it is known simply as

Top Medic

I had to have my hand bones rebroken because the medics put on a split for the other hand and it started to set wrong. Field Amb is basically equivalent to a major hospital Emergency Dept, if not better (because they are Tactical). 🎗

a friend of mine was medically retired from the usmc after 1 year cause when he presented with a fairly obvious case of broken wrist, all the corpsmen kept true to their mission and just called him a pussy who might not have drank enough water. my friend at the time was moto enough to just go along with it. so after a year his wrist got all hosed up and they had no choice but to send him to an actual doctor who immediately realized that this guy’s arm would be hosed for life.
