Chef Boyardeez Nuts posted:A warrant friend of mine was recently told that "women dress the way they do because they want attention" and that women are fine with topless beaches so it's hypocritical to complain when men stare at thier tits. Let's be honest here. If I walked around with one nut out it'd be hypocritical of me to complain if people kept looking.

His platoon SGT took it away and locked it up in the platoon office because his profile does not say he needs a wheelchair..... Tell him his sister/mother should complain to the commander. many moons ago when I was a CO I fielded phone calls (and even in person visits) from enraged mothers/family members all the time. If the CO isn't some kind of crazy person he probably has no idea this crap is going on and it would make him angry if he did.

Back when I was a PL some random general showed up to some platoon level training and gave a pretty cool speech (he told a vietnam story or something) and I gave him one of our platoon coins (one of my Soldiers designed it and one of my sgts had a connection in korea to have them made, I paid for them) and he got all misty and said he hadn't been given a coin in like 15 years. Welp, that's my PL/GO story for today.

Trump has removed the sunset clause from the Veteran's Choice Act. This is very good. Like, it's terrific. Now, if the VA can't see you/take care of you quickly, you get to go to a place that can. It also gets used if the VA place is too far away (you get a place closer to you). I personally am in the choice program and get rehab at one of the best facilities in my state (sports stars go there for rehab). All on uncle sam's nickel.
