JMRC is fun. When I went some dude rammed a TMP straight into a jersey barrier in the middle of the night. Also the amount of people that had to go to the hospital because of "impacted bowels" was amazing

DCUs were the best uniform to wear. No shining boots, no velcro and they were comfortable as gently caress. Oh, and they also worked as camouflage.

Basically the Army hosed up badly getting rid of DCUs/BDUs in favor of the ACU and instead should have just said "hey you fucks, stop pressing your uniforms and wear dark no shine boots." OR we should have just switched to DCUs full time because HAHAHAHA if we are ever getting out of the middle east ever.

Multicam looks like it's actually not half bad but I haven't worn a uniform in a very long time so honestly the gently caress do I know.

I was in OIF3 and we were the last group to wear the DCUs. 101st came in to relieve us, all of them wearing the ACUs. It was like a nightmare. A velcro-covered, pajama-looking nightmare.

Multicam is a pretty nice (and effective apparently) looking uniform in person. Much better than the abortion that is UCP, thankfully it appears we're switching to something 99% identical to Multicam for real now.

Uniform changes while you're deployed are the best. Was sitting on FOB Sykes with like 800 dudes in DCUs walking around then one guy in ACUs comes off the flight line and a bunch of us pointed at him like it was body snatchers and were like IT BEGINS. It was 1AD coming to relieve us.

For us it was overnight, all of a sudden 101st had swarmed Speicher and it had gotten 100% gayer. Even with them taking it over from the 42nd with a god drat rainbow for a patch.

we replaced the 42nd and they were some dumb gently caress heads. our unit was dumber. the 1st cav unit that replaced us was even worse. i'm of the firm belief that the invasion had bottom of the barrel intelligence at all levels, and each rip/toa was exponentially more stupid. now that the country is being steam rolled by a hand full of bearded dumb shits in Toyotas, the circle is almost complete.

In Afghanistan the 101st was really cool. Then the 82nd took over and it was gay. Then 10th mountain and it was cool. Then the 101st again and it was the gayest yet.

We flew back to BAF to get ready to leave country and didn't know PT belts were required (they weren't when we first got into country) and this jackass put us all at attention (in the middle of Disney, the biggest road on BAF) to yell about standards and discipline.

I went on a convoy to Taji or Baji (one of those places, who the gently caress knows) in the beginning of my deployment, and it was run by first cav I saw two E3's standing guard in front of the PX, making sure no one stepped on the massive 1st cav horsehead mural painted on the blacktop, they did 8 hour shifts of this, in full battle rattle. poor loving bastards.

our battalion had the distinct honor of being replaced twice by 1st cav. they were hosed both times after toa. like, things that were unprecedented in our ao loving exploded and went bonkers two weeks after we left each time. i never truly considered going awol, but if i got orders for 1st cav or 3rd acr, I think real estate in Canada would be looking fairly pristine.

Our company had been split up for our deployment. One platoon went to Anaconda to do nothing but unload patients off of blackhawks for the Aussies running the CSH and ferrying locals from the front gate to the CSH for whatever bullshit. One squad went to Warhorse to do the same there, one squad went to Caldwell to do...something, I never found out what they did. Another squad went to Gabe to run the BAS for 3rd ID and run missions with the QRF team there, and the last squad and HQ Platoon stayed at Speicher, medics working the CSH ER and HQ farting around doing duties. We had all gotten back together to start our demob process, and we did a company run one morning at Speicher to celebrate us all being together again. We get stopped 1/2 way through by some 101st major who had been there for a week to yell at us for not wearing PT belts. Even our commander was ready to smack the poo poo out of him and call him a yelling bird bitch. gleep gloop posted:Lmao first cav are such faggots about that stupid horse head. 2nd place for this was 11th Cav.

Biggest retards I've met have got to be 1-41 IN from 1AD. They were acting as the uplift for the SF guys, which of course made them think they were SF, too. And the proved this to everyone by shooting at a US contractor on the FOB and trying to shrug it off as "warning shots," stealing our LN contractors to build a gym for themselves, hitting a 600A electrical line going to the FST and thereby cutting power to the OR, and yelling at people who were waiting in line to give blood during an emergency blood draw because they were in the way of their truck carrying gym equipment.
