how is this news to anyone


the army has been and never will be an enjoyable prospect for anyone involved


what should be surprising to everyone is that 6 years and $287M were devoted to determine what people should already know about military morale


actually the military wasting time and money shouldn't surprise anyone, either

if you really believe this then i recommend you go intel.

to get in one needs to meet the minimum of a card collection that shames all other card collections in a 50 mile radius

we had a gun bunny accidentally light his rear end on fire at a party and got the battalion soldier of the week award for being a shining example of what not to do


he was the only soldier that i've seen confined to the battalion area because he was such a gently caress up

his antics transcended his battery and made him a well known entity at least for our battalion if not higher

i love my half brain dead string pulling brethren

I've switched over to actively encouraging people into joining once they ask me about enlistment. If the synapses firing between their neurons are hosed enough to have the concept of enlistment filter beyond their clearly subpar blood brain barrier than they will absolutely fit in with like-minded mouth breathing halfwits. Once you've gotten to the point of, "Boy oh boy, I wonder if I can have the current partially functioning federal government dictate every aspect of my life up to and including when and where I can poo poo," it's beyond too late. RIP you, just RIP.

A SFC at ABOLC was telling me to always make sure any white space in the training schedule is filled in with something because someone higher up will find something dumb for your platoon to do once they see that you aren't busy.

this is somehow worse than "at basic my drill sergeant said..."

lol if your daily life as a private in your unit didn't include living in barracks at 115% capacity where every evening your team leaders white gloved your room and if anyone in your platoon failed everyone had to shuttle their room in its entirety to the drill pad (dress right dress!!!) until you made it to their hosed up version of perfect

Lmao every evening

More like my platoon sergeant at 5am. And if anyone's room was dirty was dirty then the team leaders had to supervise us all cleaning the barracks at the end of the duty day.

We all just eventually resigned to the fact that he would find something and just accepted that we would have to clean the entire barracks three times a week. It was like basic training never ended.

gently caress the army is so cool why would anyone think otherwise

holy poo poo who loving cares how privates are treated


if they're lucky they aren't spending every waking moment police calling a parking lot, pushing the earth down a couple of inches, or doing 3 AM barracks checks while on cq.

they're barely functioning mush brains that have a glimpse of how the army works until they get specialist, and by then the only modus operandi they've developed is how to best sham out of the aforementioned tasks and details

let's be honest, I did get laid on deployment and gently caress this entire stupid loving sub forum full of loving stupid loving shitheels who want to play loving internet tough guy who doles out the sick burns, I loving came here because I'm god drat lost since none of my buddies are around and you stupid fucks are the closest thing I have. I'm kind of loving drunk and pissed off and probably taking things way to seriously because I've got gigantic rage and PTSD issues. suck my dick from the back you stupid loving faggots why the gently caress I haven't gone off the deep end yet and go off in a murder suicide or some poo poo yet I dunno, I need to smoke some weed or some poo poo because I'm still loving hosed up in the head from all the lovely things I experienced. Why the gently caress am I doing this spilling my guts here, to a bunch of loving internet people I don't know. I should be loving happy that I'm out but mostly I'm loving miserable and pissed off all the time because my girlfriend is a stupid bitch a lot of the time but the only thing keeping me going is being a dad to her daughter. I would have left my girlfriend a long time ago and then suck started that rusted mosin nagant I have in the closet alone in a lovely one bedroom apartment. buddy of mine already did that whole shebang and I didn't loving find out about for six god drat months and he was living less than twenty loving miles from me and I didn't even know. the only loving reason I don't kill myself is that little girl I call my daughter. gently caress, gently caress everything gently caress all of you gently caress me too. I'm being all loving retarded and butt hurt because of people saying poo poo to be but I'm alone and basically only have you fucks to talk with but I don't know any of you faggots and poo poo gets to me, being drunk doesn't help either but anyway smdftb faggots and goodnight

awards for time accrual are dumb as gently caress anyway tbf. "here's a ribbon for the x years of dick sucking you did while the green weiner went to town on your out hole."

this is doubly true for deployment awards where the awardee held the distinction of holding the requisite rank for ~1 year and the only thing of merit they did required choking down kbr chow on their way to/from powerpoint dickfests.
