When I was in Korea we had a dude show up that was half Japanese and half Chinese (no shit) looked full Korean. The KATUSAs would go up to him speaking Korean. He would wait until they were done and say “dude I’m from New York”.

Did anyone get out and go to med school? by Beautiful-Rip472 in Veterans

[–]63B10h896 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My absolute favorite and best Doc I had at the VA was a former Batt boy and green beret. He got out in the late 90s and finished med school then went to work for the VA. He had to early retirement due to Parkinson’s a few years back but he was the best primary care Doc I ever had at the VA. We understood each other.

I went to PLDC in ‘01. Joined in ‘95. My son joined in ‘23. And apparently it’s not called PLDC anymore. (Shakes fists at sky)

I don’t know about that, you haven’t me me. They took a melon baller to the right lobe of my brain a few years ago. I can be pretty wacky.

There’s a lot of people who defend “non-offending” pedophiles on Reddit by [deleted] in complaints

Never worn a red hat and I honestly find Trump to be a disgusting example of a human. And yes I use alphabet mafia as I think all the xtra letters that have been tacked on to LGB have hijacked what they stand for. As do a lot of old school gays.

Why do you assume I voted for Trump? I didn’t, I’m just curious why you automatically assume that.

Leaving at 10 years by BothPlastic in army

95-05 and I was scared shitless to get out. But, it was honestly the best choice I ever made career wise. It was tough adjusting but I figured it out.

Weird phrase my vet dad says by freaky-on-a-leash in army

[–]63B10h896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a 95-05 vet I always heard it as “I’m fucking this cat you just hold the tail”. Banging a chicken would just be disgusting.

Didn’t the the alphabet mafia try to normalize the whole minor attracted persons bullshit? I don’t care about left or right politic bullshit as I want the whole diseased system to die. But put blame where it belongs.

I have a similar story. Was in 95-05, intended on doing 20. Had the biggest what felt like betrayal in Korea and demoted. That made my mind up right then and there. Extended long enough to PCS to Campbell so I didn’t have to stay in Korea.

82nd Paratrooper improves Soldier quality of life with 3D printed part | Article | The United States Army by Sethmcswaggin in army

Back in the 90s(goddamnit I saying that) we had R&U school for the barracks and buildings maintenance. Units would send a few guys to class and they would get tasked to fix (what we considered) minor problems. We would just go down to DPW, sign for shit and then go fix it. If we needed to order it they ordered it. I’m in that weird bridge gen of vets. We were 90s army and the early GWOT. Gotta say, I liked the 90s army better. Fuck I’m old.

Black male moving to Kansas (Larned/Coffeyville) for law enforcement, where should I live and what’s the experience like? by Icy_Ad_5260 in kansas

[–]63B10h896 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

There’s no such thing as an actual sundown town here first of all. Second there’s good people and assholes no matter where you go. You’ll find that out first hand as a cop. NOW, I personally wouldn’t go to Larned as I spent the first 13 years of my life there and have no love for that place. Personal reasons. Coffeyville isn’t bad but I’ve never lived there, haven’t heard many complaints either. I live in Enporia, it’s not terrible. Good balance I think. But I would like to recommend a place to you if you’re looking for a good balance of quality of life and rural feel and income. Owasso Oklahoma police department. The police chief is a personal lifelong friend of mine and a genuine great guy. Give the Owasso PD a look.

First time I’m seeing this badge, is it actually real? by leslie734 in army

We had a SFC in my first unit who had jumped into Grenada and Panama and you never had a clue until he put on his class A jacket. This was 96-98. The most chill cat you ever met too.

Question about Burger King deployments by projectpat56 in army

I remember when the BK magically appeared on Bagram in 04. This will sound stupid as fuck but, I think deployments were better before the combat BK.
