Connecticut NG dudes hit a car on I95 and rolled an LMTV, one killed. Wear your goddam seatbelts, retards.

Yep. Sad as gently caress. I did laugh like hell when the Col doing the press conference said that all military drivers receive 40 hours of driving instruction. I was medical evac driving a M997, I had about 30 minutes of training overall during my enlistment.

We had a girl driving a LMTV on a highway using the throttle lock as a cruise control one weekend. She took an exit ramp, and drove it straight into an Audi R8. Somehow it got covered the gently caress up.

After we got back from Iraq and our company lost everyone who had ETS'd while we were deployed, our new CO (who was a state trooper) decided to do convoy training in New Britain, CT.

What he didn't know was that there was a driver who didn't have a civilian driver's license. Ever. Who sideswiped a parked car on the road. Or, when he insisted all the antennas be extended fully, that they would hit every power and telephone line on the road. Or, that people get kinda twitchy in the poor sections when a convoy of 20 vehicles come driving down the road.

Fun times.

God, even New Jersey is better than Afghanistan. For starters, it doesn't smell like human poo poo.

Whoa now, let's not say things about Fort Dix we can't take back.

i always had a laugh when we found out where we were going and then lcpl schmukatelli would post some poo poo on myspace or facebook about how he was goin to ramadi and keep him in your prayers along with a creed song

then they would have an opsec brief where theyre like goddamn it you idiot fucks dont make that poo poo public and theyd do the old switcharooo and be like well we were going to ramadi but now itll be fallujah.

but it was still ramadi all along

our deployment started off with a local newspaper publishing our flight date and where we were going.

command was not pleased with the girl who had a sister at the paper.
