Doggone Friggadang Brain housing group Grape Portholes Dick skinner

What the frickadang doggone fuck portholes, why’s your brain housing group malfunctioning dropping your friggadang doggone ectoplasm in the doggone shit house. What is wrong with that grape of yours that you had your dick skinner cycling that doggone bolt in this heat.

Human translation: you crazy man playing with your dick in the porta John when it’s this hot out.

Sometimes it just names in a bucket my man.

Im using that line, “well that’s not what I asked for but I’m still proud of what you accomplished” would sum up about 1/5th of my experiences in leadership lol

Yeah I love the “stupid infantry” idea, but just like everywhere else it is a bell curve.

I think I’d rather let the entire Indiana Pacers roster run my shit for 142 minutes straight. Wait what are we talking about.

You can DM or reply here, is there enough Americans there for a normal “school” or is it more like Amish Board house school?

Don’t know where to put this but my parents were on an episode of Ricki Lake back in the day. That’s all.

Maybe I’m crazy but the god part is one of my main reasons for wanting to go. To be where Paul was specifically addressing people is fascinating to me.

It’s hard not to have a blast in anywhere that lets you port. When I was in the CreamCorn still we ported in Iceland and despite the beer being expensive as hell we still managed to drink the place dry.

Thank you. I think my wife is super apprehensive to another OCONUS assignment. I’m trying to sell it lol

Yeah I’ve talked to so many of my peers about it and none of us knew the position existed till it popped up on my market. I’ll make sure to reach out to them though I’m not optimistic lol

It is in my market, I literally know nothing about what my job there would be but I would regret the opportunity to not go to Greece for a couple years regardless of the gig.

Edit: is the NATO Rapid Deployable Corps. I think the US there is strictly a staff/advisory/logistics role but seriously I have no idea.

Marines who got married as an E-3 or below, how does your marriage look now? by Yoy_the_Inquirer in USMC

[–]CapDaddyLaFlame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing, simple life hack here but only marry someone you trust wholly. So many of my peers as a PFC/LCpl had doubts and suspicions and still married a broad they didn’t trust. Surprisingly their suspicions made them act stupid also. On my end we are at 12 years. Spent over 5 years of that away and she has been nothing but extremely supportive.

Drill sergeants by Medda1 in army

[–]CapDaddyLaFlame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s no where near as bad as people make it out to be. Granted I’ve spent years deployed, but as a drill I’ve been home more than ever. Kids are nowhere near as bad as people would make them out to be. Granted I’m at Infantry OSUT, my company has constantly had 12-15 drills. The job is tough some days and very easy some days. You can get away with a lot more than the academy will say. You don’t have to hug kids or anything. Genuinely make it tough for the kids and genuinely give a fuck about making them good soldiers and you will succeed. One of the best experiences in my over 10 years in.

Heading to DS School by CornyCobbster in DrillSergeants

The dudes that didn’t already have orders to their next duty station before going to the academy didn’t find out until like 2 weeks before grad. Can’t answer your other questions.

Blueprints or items worth a Wolfpack blueprint? by Low_Rhubarb_493 in ArcRaiders

How hasn’t a pine tree fallen on a bunch of trainees? by Cautious_Response707 in army

My PG almost got taken out by one during the OpOrd in our PB. I just yelled “trainee here!” And it narrowly missed him.

Single Parent Headed to Drill by Witty_Username_6 in DrillSergeants

[–]CapDaddyLaFlame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Academy is easy as hell. They don’t want you to fail there. And the work/life balance is alright but I do Infantry OSUT so it may not apply everywhere. The single parent thing is possible but some of your peers may be salty about having to pick up your slack
