You don't get an O-6 involved if you zero a KYK or ANCD or SKL. That's ridiculous.

There was an E-6 at my unit who had originally joined the Army in 1981. Then he got out around 1990. He came back in 2007 or so, because his son had some really rare disease that there was no way he could afford treatment for in the regular world. Pretty nice guy, seemed like he was decently successful in the civilian world. Couldn't do intel work for poo poo though. Just didn't have a loving clue about computers.

He set his truck on fire at Fort Bliss? Really? The common thing to do there was have certain people take your car to Juarez and you report it stolen, then collect the insurance money.

Army definitely doesn't call them cammies. They're just called ACUs. And yeah, if you're wearing them to stop by the store real quick on the way home, whatever. But if you're out at the mall wearing them, you're retarded.

CitizenSparkles posted:Few years back, we were having a E-5 board. No big deal. Well this one Spc did NOT want to get promoted for whatever reason. I think he was close to getting out, or maybe 0 fucks were given. Either way, his solution was fairly simple. He did his three knocks and the CSM said enter. At this point, the dude kicks in the door, and combat rolls in. He attempted to close the door by kicking it shut, but hosed that up, and left it wide open. He sprinted over to CSM, stood at attention and gave the whole "Spc blah blah reporting to the president of the board." without saluting. That dude owns. Even though it didn't really work out the way he wanted, still owns. When I got sent to the board right before I was getting out, I answered all the questions etc cause I didn't want to look like a shitbag, but then the last question was "Why do you think you'd be a good NCO?" I answered, "I don't think I would be a good NCO. I'm getting out in a couple months, and I'm focused on getting ready for my civilian career." The board looked like I had killed their puppy and were just in shock. But it worked out, didn't have to go to WLC 2 months before my ETS.

Neoliberal usually refers to someone who is ardently pro-free trade and globalization (aka everyone in US politics), so it would be pretty easy for neolib and neocon to overlap

One of the Russians was getting drunk off the brake fluid (" Added a little nuts and spices, its not bad!") who know it was based off reality? we watched this movie in AIT, it was excellent
