USMC503 posted:Do any of you fucks have a Master's degree from USC and just graduated Army Basic Combat Training today? If you do that, at least don't tell anyone about the Master's Degree. When asked about what you did after college be as vague as possible. Being the enlisted guy with a degree is dumb enough.

NTT posted:I guess alms flipped or something, I had to redo my AAC cert today. That class is loving easy. I know the army takes idiots, but the class is literally "go to the table of contents, look up the regulation, write down the regulation," and so many people manage to fail. That being said, never be the idiot that has to actually certify the hazmat.

Zeris posted:Same here. Shoe to boot size goes way down. Really depends on the boot. I sized down slightly in some Rockys and lost about 4 toenails on a ruck march. If he's a doctor and they really don't give a gently caress what boot he wears, I suggest some synthetic light leather boots that are no longer allowed per the regs.

MegaJoe89 posted:Lol an American First Lieutenant took us to the Olive Garden, it was not a garden of olives nor was it Italian food. I appreciated the thought and everything and the wine wasn't horrible. I think she just wants in my pants but i feel as if my commander would frown upon THAT goodwill mission.I now know why some of my uncles moved to the U.S.! To be fair a lot of Italian women like foreigners too. Please bone that LT, especially if you are not an officer yourself.

Mustang posted:What's you all's opinion on good officer branches? Everyone seems to be competing for MI and Engineer and a surprising number of people want Finance and ADA. After talking to recycles and people in company's that have already branched apparently infantry slots take up a quarter to one third of the available slots so a lot of people that don't want it are getting it. Most want Finance and no one wants Infantry? What the hell? Is this common?

Whipped Buttcheeks posted:It's more common for people to make sane branch choices in OCS because you have more prior service. Most of them know better. In ROTC and the Academies, you have combat arms-heavy cadre pressuring kids to keg-stand the Koolaid. Almost all of them want to be Special Forces Ranger underwater Delta divers. I've seen a kid literally cry over getting Ordnance. Yes, I lold. Thanks, that makes a lot of sense.

Pesticide20 posted:An idiot in my platoon has pretty much guaranteed that those of us living in the barracks will now have a poo poo ton more room inspections. Normally, I just throw on a movie or some music during those, but I want to try something different. I'm thinking that I'll have a nasheed playing, change my computer background to the ISIS flag, and have Chrome open to a bunch of jihadi looking sites. The problem I have though, is figuring out which sites would look the worst, without getting too carried away with it. Any suggestions? Yeah, because it's not like extremist organizations are frowned upon in the Army. I'm sure your leadership is up on their First Amendment jurisprudence and will respect your free speech rights. Surely they won't determine that your perusing of ISIS websites is against good order and discipline. Just kidding, you are an idiot. Just put on some good clean pterodactyl porn.

not caring here posted:Just remember, your schools can gently caress you pretty bad. If you've got airborne you can end up at Fort Bragg quicker than gently caress. Same with ranger. And air assault as well I think. Air Assault definitely. Everyone knows that they'll be coming back to Campbell at some point because of those stupid wings.

That sweet pic I have by the Hescos isn't good enough because I'm wearing PFC rank. I'm too impatient to wait for the unit to go to a range and take all the pictures I want. I'm too stupid to not put magazines in my pouches so it looks like I'm carrying an assault rifle and full combat load of ammunition into a crowded mall.

Every commander is a total dick about height/weight. gently caress her for not upholding the standard that she's probably used to kick numerous soldiers out of the army in her career. I'm glad that whoever measured her didn't back down. Honestly, how hard is it even to maintain at her age after a lifetime of doing so? The bodyfat standard is probably like 30%.

Soulex posted:I consistently finished my army schools in the top 5% and it has meant absolutely dick. I think he only one I didn't was WLC and that's because some people scored better than a 97.77% I was in the 98s and only got Commandant's List. I saw a buddy's 1059 the other day because he's building a reclass packet and he had a 99%; he also didn't get poo poo aside from a Commandant's List bullet. WLC grades are completely fixed. Mine was actually legit because, surprise, someone who has spent hours a day online since he was 10 years old can CTRL+F "cordon", and I don't know how loving dumb you have to be to not get a 100% on D&C or the tiny little self correcting land nav course we did.
