Nick Soapdish posted: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. The occasional summer vacation in Naples or such is pretty nice too.

SketchesOfSpain01 posted:The navy really hates when people hack into their servers, especially if you're serving on their aircraft carrier. quote:Team Digi7al (pronounced "digital") quote:Knight called himself the "nuclear black hat" and used aliases and nicknames such as Inertia, Logic, nickmc01, Solo and Iner7ia. The Navy should be deeply embarrassed that a douchenozzle like this was able to hack their poo poo.

Christoff posted:Anything is better than the awful yellow shirt/Despicable Me minion outfit. The shorts are cool when you cut out the lining but gently caress that shirt. Terrible fitting, too. It's alright at least a blue undershirt w/navy shorts is the unauthorized unofficial PT uniform The shorts material is pretty bad and they don't hold up well in the laundry. I bought a size small in order to make everyone pay twice a year for requiring such a poo poo uniform.

Christoff posted:The New Balance ones are pretty alright. Have you tried those ones out? They're like $5-10 more? You'll probably need a size up though. I think you're missing the point. Christoff posted:Yes but they are ridiculous what with the moose knuckle and all which is why people only wear them in public to be funny. Amazing, though. Yes, that. A 6'2" guy walking around in short PT shorts with the moose knuckle and all is awesomely terrible and I love doing it.

Howard Phillips posted:That's great. What's the typical weekend drill like? Hang out at NOSC and do random admin for the unit? Depends on the unit. If your goal is to do as little as possible while making some extra cash and keeping ultra-cheap health insurance (Tricare Reserve is like $50 a month) look for a Korea Det. It involves hanging out at NOSC and doing GMT and crosswords, then flying out to Korea once a year for Ulchi-Freedom Guardian.

Still floating. Except the subs. And probably not the LCS.

Mr. Nice! posted:We were luckily using aramid lines so there was no snapback. Someone would have probably got hurt if we were using nylon or polypropylene. Only if they hadn't seen the synthetic line snapback video.

Octopode posted:Boring and unrelated to sexhaving, but PsychO? Do carriers really have enough mental problems that they need a dedicated medical officer to handle them? A carrier strike group is twice the size of an Army brigade and is a self-contained deployable unit so yes.
