guns for tits posted:This might be a bad question but how much of the military's budget is wasted on bullshit it doesn't need? Let me give you a personal example. I was running a night range for 50 Caliber machine guns. The last people who have to take the shooting test finish, it's 2 AM, and we have 10,000 rounds left. A normal group of people would turn in the ammunition for somebody else to use, right? Not us. Range guys deem it too much of a pain in the rear end to got through ammunition turn in procedure and decide to shoot it all into the darkness instead. Here's the cost to the taxpayer: 1. 10,000 x $3-6 per round of 50 caliber 2. Contractors getting overtime to sit in the tower and watch this ammo get wasted 3. Wear and tear on a bunch of $20,000 machine guns, reducing life expectancy This is probably the cheapest waste of taxpayer money you'll see. Don't get me started on the waste I saw when I was operating on tanks.

Some time ago the Army consolidated to using (for the most part) a single type of fuel. This is great because it simplifies fuel logistics giving a cost savings in equipment and manning needed to load an transport fuel. This is terrible because we need to use a fuel that will work in everything from humvees to helicopters and tanks. So you end up with JP-8, a type of jet fuel we buy at $3.73 a gallon, going into your basic diesel engine humvees. Consider that the average Army vehicle will spend 50% or more of its operational life idling and burning fuel just to keep the radio on or troops warm. Now consider how many thousands of vehicles are out there, today, idling or being used to for a run to McDonalds.

Fort Knox, got the trots during a run and I was a mile away from the nearest porta potty. Ran into the nearest treeline through some not so nice underbrush and squatted. Wasn't in great shape after running the last two miles back to the start with a lovely rear end.

Naked Bear posted:One time after the DFAC had been serving their funky Mexican corn stuff, I was strolling back to the barracks (must've been a weekend, I was in civvies) when I was suddenly overcome with that feeling. I was less than a hundred meters from the barracks, but it was so sudden and intense that I nearly shat myself right there. I had to stop for a second to kind of... pull my butthole back in, then I rangewalked like never before to the door. The bathroom immediately in front of the door was not usable for whatever reason, so I hoofed it up the stairs as quickly as possible, still urging my anus to stay strong while my guts gurgled and stomach roiled. As I smashed through the bathroom door, I feared that I would not make it. I started to undo my belt and pants, then I spun around as soon I got into the stall while slamming the door shut and dropping trou. As my rear end was still on the way down, my butthole erupted and corn spewed forth, drenching the entire toilet. I spent who knows how long in there, dying on the toilet as my soul drained out through my rear end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jEM8-Gbknk

You'd think maintenance would be the only thing the company XO would have to worry about. He can borrow brokedicks and recycles so the DSs can do other poo poo.
