Surprised whatever tradition it stemmed from didn't evolve into saluting them. Hell I'm sure the foundation/history of it wasn't half as dumb and frat like it is now

I think it's funny like the history of officers is that they were literate educated upper class folk with money who could buy their own ship or w/e and everyone else was legit peasants. Everything stems from this "speak when spoke to only" etc poo poo. Like they're loving royalty (I guess then they were in a way) So the Military keeps all those traditions. I remember reading the blue jackets manual and it said some bs like "but unlike other countries American Military officers are educated instead and that's valued and they're not just upper class folk!" I remember our department head telling us about back in the day in his Navy (he was in for like 14 years lol) it was like the above and you could only speak when spoken to and had to request permission for everything like getting married (not a bad idea imo) Then when you have the high ranking officers and poo poo coming around work places you clean forever roll out the red carpet and kiss their toosh like they're the king of England. Then you're forced to stand in a formation for them and ask them dumb questions then get yelled at for asking said question. My favorite story was from a buddy in Lejeune. I guess they had a visit from the commandant or some poo poo and spent weeks beforehand picking up pine cones. Some lower enlisted dude in the crowd asked "sir do you not like pine cones or something?" "Uh, no, I have nothing against pine cones why?" "Because for the past god drat 2 weeks I've been picking up pine cones and I thought maybe you didn't like them or something" PneumonicBook posted:How lovely is the reservist version of tricare? Just do what everyone else does and don't pay for it then spend your reserve weekends in the local MTF ER for chronic back pain and bronchitis then be surprised when you get a bill Nostalgia4Dogges fucked around with this message at 05:55 on Feb 10, 2015 |

They wear NWUs way too much on ship. In port you kind of have to because of the dumb coverall wear rules. They did get nice new fire retardant coveralls fairy recently that are worn more. I think they're red

Do my job? No sorry I have a bake sale to attend then I'm volunteering so I can't stand watch this weekend. I'm also going to school and have a test so I can't work past 5 I already cleared it with our department head. Like its amazing how many dudes are "hot poo poo" on paper and get good evals but don't even know their own job and somehow go years avoiding doing anything related to their actual job by volunteering for every command thing ever.

The command would sugar coat the gently caress out of it and maybe throw them a NAM when they got back but it was really to just have said person be someone else's problem for 6-12 months

That poo poo is very case by case. I remember one not too long ago having PSPs bundles and older poo poo like that. Can you not check inventory online? I never found the NEX to have any good deals at all. Maybe overseas.
