We had a "morale drive" on the network that was hundreds of gigs of music and movies people uploaded/downloaded via personal hard drives. It was loving awesome.

Naturally a tanker pilot blew the whistle and it went away.

Iwakuni circa 2008 had the network dudes use the satellite to download tv shows and movies we couldn't get because AFN is loving dogshit and would broadcast them over 2 TV channels for the entire base to watch 24/7. I managed to watch all of House and saw a bunch of other poo poo I can't recall offhand.

Mind you this was before the base had broadband and you were basically paying $60 a month for a sub 56k modem connection. So it was pretty loving awesome at the time.

Someone had a story about some guy calling help desk to complain that he couldn't get on the "cool" morale drive or something like that, which ended up getting it shut down. Anyone remember that story?

Dear diary, I got another erection today at work. SO embarrassing, but kinda hot. The CO asked me to fix up his dress uniform. I had stayed late at work to move his badges 1/8" to the left and pointed it out this morning. 1SG spanked me while the CO watched, once they caught it. Tomorrow I get to start all over again...

This is the loving truth. You have like 5 goddamn colleges filled with naive girls less than an hour from Bragg. If you aren't leaving post for the weekend and never turning back until sunday night, you need to rethink your priorities.

And if you are in Camp Lejune, just go to Wilmington and pretend you aren't a marine.

Huh? BAH here is like $1,800-$2,000. Plus comrats. Yeah, you have to factor in rent. But I can't think of any living sole who wouldn't take the latter option.


Of course that also leads to 2 month marriages that lead to chicks selling all his CIF gear out of anger but hey!

every time we had a change of command at any level (and we had three at battalion or higher right after deployment) someone would fall out. after this happening a few times they made change of commands mandatory seniors listed and officers only and it was up to the companies whether or not they would go to anything battalion or higher.

Lmao yeah right like it was our choice.

It doesn't matter if they can or not. Once we hit a magic number of people with vaginas allowed into the infantry, the culture will change and more young women will feel like it is okay to do pull-ups and long hikes with heavy gear.

It's like when Baseball desegregated and black players were given 4 strikes.

Or when women won suffrage and were each allowed to vote twice.

Silly boys.

Aparently 3 dudes couldn't either.

Also :

quote:

Retired Army Col. Ellen Haring, an advocate for women in combat, says that although the entire formation was supposed to complete the hike in three hours, it took most of the group closer to four hours.

“Despite the fact that none of them could keep the pace that was set that day, they were considered failures. But the whole unit failed to meet those parameters, not just those six people,” she says. “Who maintains the rate of the march?”

So the real story here is Nobles are lazy fucks who can't meet the standard.
