It's nice to know that when a soldier in boot camp is called a name, he has a safe place with people to talk about it because he needs help dealing with such an emotional issue. What sort of resources for counseling does little Johnny have when he's captured by the enemy and one of them calls him a human being?

NCOs in the military should look to our enemies for tips on how to treat their fellow soldiers?

I bet they don't make you wash trucks or sweep the parking lot when you're a POW. Probably why those MIA guys from Vietnam and Korea hid out so they wouldn't have to come back.

I remember being in when B Clinton was making changes to do more with less in the military and that poo poo sucked. I'm not saying vote Trump but does anyone think Hillary is going to make daily life better for those still stuck in service?

I like how that article also makes it a point to include the gender of the person that did the dumb tweet.

Lol at making poo poo better for people that are still in. Let's make poo poo better for people that are out and especially people that never join. Let's ensure that they don't have to join or deal with whatever problems a Trump presidency brings. Any chafing in the military because of a Clinton presidency is far better than the alternative and if it means a few Joes get released from the military then so be it. If it means some generals and admirals get let go then all the better.

Forcing members to live in base housing at a considerable discount (and cutting BAH) would be a good compromise.

But military spending is out of control with contracts mostly.

Eh. I get that single junior enlisted guys get all butthurt about living in the dorms and all that, but between the fact that a lot of bases have terrible housing and/or awful private property management and the DoD's control over most of my life to the detriment of my wife and kids, I figure my their living situation is something over which we should have some control. If I was single, I probably wouldn't mind being forced to live on base, but that's mainly because without a family to occasionally distract me from the USAF, I'd just decorate the walls with my brains after awhile.

Someone shared with me their experience of being forced to do "crossfit style" PT which involved hauling rusted out, jagged-edged ammo cans full of rocks. He complained that it was stupid and would injure people for no reason, and was told "and what are you going to do when you are the only airman left, and they need you to carry ammo to the flight-line?"

He's actually in great shape, but if the service demands that the carpet-dwelling officers with math degrees need to start hauling ammo we've probably already lost whatever conflict just happened.

I always loved that logic that people running PT used. "Just keep running five more miles! What would you do if we were in combat?"

gently caress you, we're a heavy weapons platoon that rolls everywhere in trucks. I would probably keep driving rear end in a top hat.

"Collapse and wait for the welcome and sweet embrace of death" would have been my answer if the Marines ever asked such questions. Instead we were just called slurs a bunch until we started to run again to stop the dumb DI impression every over motivated rear end in a top hat does.

I actually said the truck thing on a run once when my leadership was trying to motivate us to run an extra mile. I got smoked for it and everything because I "questioned the orders of my leadership or some poo poo".

Okay, let's get a few facts straight.

1) After I got out of the military literally 2 weeks later I was in jail for punching a cop I saw beating a black motorist, which oddly enough, I joined the military due to getting caught with a substantial amount of weed and it was "do 5 years in prison or 5 years in the Marines."
