I would have been an even bigger piece of poo poo had I not joined. At least this way I got out in the world, got my degree paid for and saved a lot of money via contracting afterwards. Had I gone straight to college after high school, I'd have not known what I wanted and just been a waste of time and money.

I am also very thankful that no one that I knew got injured or killed on deployment. My battalion only had one KIA and he was in another company.

One of my happiest moments in the Army was some butter bar stopping me while I was driving out of the parking lot during PT hours. I was with my platoon sergeant and we had just zonked our platoon (with my commander's permission) because we were the only unit who finished some dumb maintenance tasks on time. This loving dork had the audacity to walk in front of my car and hold his arm out like a crossing guard then walk around to the driver's side. He asked for my unit info and name, and after going back and forth a few times my overtired brain just snapped and I yelled "suck my dick human being" and sped off while my PSG was cracking up in the passenger seat welp that's my PT story thanks.

Interesting, considering some training guidance we were given. Not sure why "commando's" is in the title though haha.

What's the weird triangular nods mount that one dude has? I've seen the black, tan and grey pvs-14 mounts and the 2 models PSQ-20 mounts but never seen the triangular mount for 14's.

It's the private with the skedco on the facebook post.

I can't make it out from the graininess of the pics, but there are more than a few triangular mounts out there.

I have the Norotos universal mount on one of my spare MICH helmets and it's nice and stable, doesn't wobble back and forth like the USGI one. My Ops-Core helmet has a triangle mount as well, and that doesn't wobble either.

Well I have good news. I'm out of the army as of yesterday afternoon, and am currently hundreds of miles away from the morons I used to work with/for. I'm going to be in Yellowstone tomorrow and I can't tell what I'm going to be enjoying more, that, or NOT BEING IN THE ARMY.

If you have time, swing up to Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park in Montana, it's a few hours from Yellowstone and pretty cool.

When I was 18, in high school, 2003, and about to ship for basic in a few months, I was seriously worried that the war would be over before I could deploy and get some.
