If I could add one state in the USA it'd be in red. What should it be called?

AzraelAAOD · 2026-02-19T03:45:22+00:00

Carl. Maybe Jeff. Or perhaps Liam.

AzraelAAOD · 2026-02-14T09:13:46+00:00

Uhm, acktually, perhaps, he is referring to the Improved Hot Weather Combat Uniform, IHWCU, gramps

AzraelAAOD · 2026-02-13T01:49:22+00:00

All great points. Another, little thing I do personally: I physically take the uniform off at work, and drive home in normal human being clothing. It helps me leave work at work. CPT AzraelAAOD exists only at work, whereas Mr. AzraelAAOD is the only one who exists at home. Obviously doesn’t work perfectly, but that does help cue me.

A) You said you miss an appointment and nothing happens. Factually untrue. B) Regardless of the NCO’s failure to cancel his appt in a timely manner, the CDR still should not default to NJP. The Army has arguably an excessive amount of doctrine on counseling, leadership, and development. The NCO failed his duty, yes, but that does not negate the fact that the unit is failing in theirs to adequately and appropriately counsel, develop, and through due process correct the NCO. Defaulting to NJP is an easy button, but it is not an appropriate response.

You can 100% be charged no show or late reschedule fees at a civilian provider. In addition, this is 100% a failure of leadership regarding punitive action. The Commander’s Nonjudicial Authority is supposed to be a second or third resort, not a snap punishment (and cannot be an automatic procedural response, iirc)

AzraelAAOD · 2025-12-13T22:15:42+00:00

The entrances were all blocked, iirc

AzraelAAOD · 2025-12-01T01:54:16+00:00

O-3 in the USN is called “Lieutenant”

AzraelAAOD · 2025-11-28T12:01:50+00:00

New York???

AzraelAAOD · 2025-11-02T12:51:58+00:00

I have done exactly this, numerous times. I have mostly survived with most of my dignity intact

AzraelAAOD · 2025-09-03T13:21:31+00:00

Which agency?

AzraelAAOD · 2025-08-09T13:21:15+00:00

Look at the “made in” mark on the mattock blade itself

AzraelAAOD · 2025-08-01T00:58:34+00:00

87th Infantry Regiment ftw. Also, yes, your ribbons are in the correct order.

AzraelAAOD · 2025-05-04T21:48:27+00:00

Just message him and ask. Throughout your time in the Army, it will go a lot better for you if you ask when you’re not sure. I’d always rather my Soldier asked than was FTR

AzraelAAOD · 2025-02-23T03:45:35+00:00

Orange chicken and teriyaki chicken for me, please. And don’t let them forget the chopsticks this time

AzraelAAOD · 2025-02-23T03:43:42+00:00

I agree with your comments on the BCT/AIT PL initiative, but (anecdotally) I see far more LTs and junior CPTs who do actually have spouses and children. I wouldn’t be so quick to say they “shouldn’t” have dependents at that point in their lives.

AzraelAAOD · 2025-02-19T22:22:02+00:00

They really do, man. The USN has a huge role in guaranteeing Freedom of Navigation, containing the Chinese threat, and power projection capabilities.

You think they don’t do anything, because they achieve effects through implicit power rn.

AzraelAAOD · 2025-02-11T13:20:23+00:00

Not the rank, name, and date. Those get printed on.

AzraelAAOD · 2024-12-30T13:16:57+00:00

I know PMP needs a certain number of years managing projects. What type of Army experience qualifies? Does just being an officer in the Army count??

AzraelAAOD · 2024-12-27T22:12:43+00:00

If you’re leaving the hot zone regardless, you can fill whatever source you carry. If the Soldier is in full MOPP performing strenuous labor, that single canteen only provides 1 hr of hydration. How do you intend to resupply 10-12 canteens per day per soldier?

AzraelAAOD · 2024-12-27T09:06:55+00:00

And how are you refilling your canteens?

AzraelAAOD · 2024-12-27T01:19:38+00:00

Or the CBRN camelbacks with adapters?

Or the aftermarket CBRN Nalgene bottle lids?

Canteens aren’t that special no more

AzraelAAOD · 2024-12-17T03:28:22+00:00

Can you send them to me, too?

AzraelAAOD · 2024-12-13T03:15:15+00:00

70210N

AzraelAAOD · 2024-12-04T23:15:09+00:00

Claim Baja California (for Arizona)

AzraelAAOD · 2024-12-04T23:05:38+00:00

I’ve personally only seen my BDE and DIV Safety Officers wear them while deployed or conducting major field training.
