nacirema posted:I got orders to Okinawa naval hospital as a scrub, woo! Anone know what to expect from the island or surrounding islands? lol 90% of people I talk to absolutely hate it. A handful have an amazing time and don't want to leave. Most of the poo poo part comes from lame curfews, base lockdowns, and no drinking because Marines/Sailors keep raping or stabbing people.

Don't transfer EPs not count anymore or something? But yeah gently caress the Navy eval system. Unless you're a CT or IT or nuke whatever and have 80-98% advancement to e-6 Seeing a 24 year old e-6 blew my mind

I love how people always come in here and are like shoot should I get out or re-enlist? And after 20 posts saying out they're always like Ehhhh think I'm gonna do another 4. You know, save money Gets a dependa with baggage that has 3 of his kids, becomes chief and makes juniors miserable because he is. Wellll don't wanna go home to my bitchy wife just gonna stay at work and if I'm here you're here

It's pretty easy and straightforward. Doesn't take long. Unless you're one of those inner city folk that absolutely can't swim. I remember a guy trying to swim 3 feet past the ledge to the mock helo w/ gear on and immediately sinking. I don't know how they'll do it for you but the hardest part was the first part where you have to egress without any oxygen. It's quick but you still panic. With the 02 just don't flip out and it's simple

Howard Phillips posted:It was so lovely he eventually ended up deserting like most of the people who join the FFL from Western countries. Like all his friends deserted but he went on leave to the U.S. and a chick stole his passport and he got stuck and said it wasn't worth the punishment to go back because he'd already been labeled a deserter It's funny at the end of the more popular FFL doc the Kiwi they were following deserted

Their mission aside the nice thing about those jobs/communities is that they're small and more OFP and can skate. Other problem is the hooyah motto faggots and such. All that being said I'd do it but I wouldn't run around calling myself a war fighter wearing molle backpacks with RIVERINE SWIFT DEADLY SILENT hoodies or w/e

oh ok that's good I figured they'd be rife with that poo poo since the ones who don't actually do poo poo are the most motarded SWCC "we're basically SEALs!" Riverine "we're basically SWCC!" Throw someone an M4, M9, NVGs, cammie paint, or w/e and they lose their minds

Yeah I think it just depends on availability. Being new to the fleet you'll definitely spend some time with the ship as your home initially. There are barracks and I know in SD there's some apartment building for bachelors with a pool on the roof and poo poo? So they give you BAH but then take most ofit away and make you live there? So it's kind of barracks but not. Someone else can shed more light I'm sure. -edit just get married imo

I would have married a dude in a heartbeat if it was allowed early on in my enlistment

Yeah barracks are extremely hit or miss. Sometimes it's like a 4 star resort and others you're sharing a 10x10 room (outside of a training command, mind you) with another dude and some rear end in a top hat fat poo poo BPO that went TAD to do it because his command wants to get rid of him for a while and he's a terminal e-5 with a fat wife that can't afford to get out because he has 3 kids. He is coming through randomly throughout the week and threatening you with squat bay barracks because you didn't high dust or left a gum wrapper in your trash can. Then goes and tattles to your chief Oh and fire alarm tests and all hours

Every reservist I've met is trying desperately to go active duty which is almost seemingly impossible. Guess they're all just unemployed deadbeats idk Makes sense for the dudes that were active and just want that healthcare for their 4 flip kids I guess

Then probably 3 months active in Fallon as a reservist starting in February because I needs the money before school... just when I think I'm out the Navy pulls me right back in. Unemployment?

I always thought it was a bit silly to stop the car. Then you always have the group of dudes running during colors and then the motivator that's not sure if that's ok or not and tries to call them out anyways in an angry voice to seem assertive

First I've heard of it. Top 3% is a small number, it'll just be the snitch toolbags anyways. But if they actually take into account physical fitness then I guess that's about accurate. But still my only complaint is that it's not retroactive and that I feel like it'll slowly becom watered down and then if you weren't a shitbag you get it
