I hope they start another war so that the reservists can return to active duty.

All the non-prior active duty reservists want nothing more than to be active and deploy whereas the prior want nothing more than cheap insurance and beer money.

Well I'm over 35 looking to join the reserves. Passed my physical and just waiting for my waiver interview. Will that be entertaining enough?

No, reserves aren't nearly as entertaining as people making horrible choices on active.

I need to carry around the reg that says it only needs to be tucked in for unit PT. Even if you're fit that shirt still makes you look fat and out of shape.

I have never understood people that will not learn from junior Sailors or who are just stubborn assholes. Like last drill one of the new Ensigns was wearing black boots that were roughed out like the Army. I asked him, "Hey Sir, what's up with your boots?" as I don't believe in the whole "Being a Chief means chewing out people before asking questions". He said the regs had changed and, sure enough, for non-sea duty, you can wear them. I learned something new and we had a good talk; guy had 10 years active in the Air Force before getting his commission.

There was a dude wearing the old school white PT shirt, jeans, and a screaming high and tight today at the mall with his kids. Likely a reservist chief or first class. Just looked so loving silly and out of place.

I choice to believe only two of the three are correct. I want to believe that it was the old school PT shirt, jeans, and rocking a mullet instead as that would make way more sense.

The best thing was then the guy in the studio goes to throw it to Esther at around the 9 minute mark, doesn't get any response, and then is just like "I'm sure she's fine," I assumed she was in getting fluids in Medical or passed out.

How did all of you corpsman goons stayed awake in a-school? I'm being bored to death by power point, especially when caffeine isn't allowed inside the school house.

I cannot imagine any place in the Navy that doesn't have a Coffee Mess. Shameful.
