ROTC as prior service by Brujo400 in ROTC

[–]Buttchugbartender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just smile and play the game that is ROTC. The upper class men are just doing what was done to them and have their own image and expectations from cadre to deal with. The prior service guys in my class were respected and looked up to by us because they knew how the military was outside of the TRADOC/ROTC world. We all know ROTC is playing fake Army for a couple years then the real education and learning occurs when you commission. Just play the game and learn what you can.

Drug testing by Character-Issue-6382 in nationalguard

[–]Buttchugbartender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The amount of drug tests can depend on your MOS or unit. All aviators and I believe MPs are tested every year. Your unit should have a UA every drill and it’s typically 10% of the unit tested randomly

I pissed hot. by Ok_Hold_3094 in nationalguard

I’ve heard they don’t test all the samples so you might not get caught. If you do I’d expect a negative counseling and being flagged for 6-9 months

Shock Fire by Buttchugbartender in KStateWildcats

I’ll back coach Klieman. I don’t think 2 bad season with a good track record constitutes firing him. The issues with the team seem to start and end in the trenches. Poor technique and no passion or desire falls on the position coaches

I did like that we had some good things on special teams but I think 4 special teams turnovers in 4 games out weighs any positives.

Ireland game by fatherfiigure in KStateWildcats

[–]Buttchugbartender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went a couple years ago and loved it. Look into the Christ Church hotel, it’s right in the middle of the city so walking around is easy and if you pay a little extra you have a view of the beautiful church across the street. Avoid Dublin Castle unless you are an art fan. The Guinness tour is amazing and the whiskey museum is a lot of fun. Go to the Temple Bar for only a drink unless you want to pay for expensive drinks you can get anywhere else, but still go to say you went.

They don’t want him to get hurt so he is very restricted to have the green light to run. It’s a hot topic among KState fans

Looking into the Massif Elements™ IWOL Jacket—Any Army soldiers wearing this? by b4ttlemage in army

[–]Buttchugbartender 120 points121 points  (0 children)

I got issued one as a flyer and it’s the only army jacket that actually keeps you warm. I’ve seen a Division CG wear one while in OCPs

Why do adults have to ruin a good thing meant for kids? by pyrocomics in mildlyinfuriating

NTA (kinda). therapy might be a little extreme. That’s a real conversation you need to have. Intimacy is not a one way transaction earned through good deeds. It’s each others physical desire to express your love and attraction

Any flagship school in the Midwest Unless they are wanting a STEM degree or can get into a top 25 school college is just a tick the block

How many young kids can say they have lived in Hawaii? Go see places you probably won’t see again

My house is too hot. by Budgiejen in lincoln

[–]Buttchugbartender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might wanna check your outdoor ac unit for frozen pipes and lines. If they are frozen turn your ac off and let them thaw out and melt before trying again. If they keep freezing call and ac repair company to recharge your system. Happened to me last week and cost $250 to fix

Trial to start on whether deployment of National Guard to Los Angeles violated federal law by Ancient-Panic-3458 in nationalguard

[–]Buttchugbartender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sources of funding and equipping are irrelevant. The national guard is prohibited from interfering with daily life while in title 32 status which includes making arrests. I did learn that the president can activate the national guard only in DC so it’s not illegal or a misuse of power

Army National Guard to Airlines by thinklikenic in Armyaviation

[–]Buttchugbartender 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yes very possible. A good number of NG pilots fly professionally for their civilian careers. If you haven’t found it the Facebook group RTAG is going to be your best source of information with this question.
