The gently caress? "but" nothing... There are hundreds of dudes who would suck a line of dicks to be in your shoes right now.

I'd participate. Would probably send a legit gift (not big black dildo or w/e)...

I got asked what the designation was for a hot LZ (landing zone) for a helo during Vietnam on my SWO board.
was a lookup, I had no idea...and guess what? I don't remember what it was. That's how important it was.

I never ask people lame-rear end "stump the chump" questions like that on boards. I ask abstract poo poo that requires you to actually use your brain because I want to see how a person thinks/reasons their way through a problem (especially with incomplete information), not whether or not you can regurgitate useless loving Jeopardy trivia.

CO was watching my PRT today. Are you supposed to call attention on deck while in PT gear? No one did, but this was also the first time since he's been the CO ( a year and a half) that I've seen him in person. I also hear he got pissed off the other day that a watchfloor that didn't belong to him didn't call attention on deck, so idk.

He has been on a kick about it lately... A couple weeks ago some 2nd class walked right by him in the p-way and didn't say anything, and then like a week later some JG not only didn't stand when he entered the room, but didn't acknowledge him.

I'm becoming more and more curious as to when NMCI is actually going to upgrade to a modern web browser. Like, virtually every non-military site I visit these days comes with a distressingly-worded warning that my browser is old as poo poo and no longer supported. That is, if the page even loads, which an increasing number of sites don't. At what point do they finally figure "gee, 2009 was a great year and all, but maybe we should move on"?

This is what happens when you do stupid poo poo like let the OPNAV N2/N6 (for the entire loving Navy) be an aviator (or SWO, or any other URL who hasn't been a career comms or something similar, for that matter).

Our NMCI computers just got IE10 on them last weekend.

Meaningless if they're still running XP...
