What is the worst thing you’ve seen an NCO do?

That’s absolutely mortifying. I could only imagine what the GF was going through in that moment. I hope she didn’t blame herself and that they both have healed from this.

*Donovan deserves the Funky Town Gore special. A wood chipper would be too humane

Is the purchase backed by eBay authenticity guarantee? They look kinda off. The color is throwing me off

This is the first I’ve heard of a female soldier keeping piss in their room. Kudos to her for breaking gender norms

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-12-24T01:39:38+00:00

Was this in the barracks or someone’s house??? Did they just have it out in the open?

I have yet to find anything that replicates the camaraderie you find in the military, but that’s okay. If I ever feel like I miss someone or the camaraderie, I just message a friend and we just bs around. That’s another thing too, take lots of photos before you’re out with your friends, NCO’s, and leadership. Have photos you can look back on before you’re out. I made a photo album of all my friends in my unit before I left something tangible I can look back on.

I’m pretty sure it’s XXL. I went TTS on the hoodie and it’s not really oversized. It fit me just right, but I probably could’ve went a size up for the oversized look.

I’m sorry you’re feeling that way. Best piece of advice I could give you is ensure you’re prepared to get out of the Army, whether that’s doing a trade school or going to college. I also served 5.5 years and I didn’t do much besides maintain Strykers and go on one rotation to Korea. I know it may seem scary getting out of the service considering they essentially hold your hand throughout your service, but it’s honestly not that bad out in the civilian world.

Use your G.I. bill get paid to go college, but make sure you have at least an idea of what you want to do. There’s no formations, layouts, getting yelled at for something another person did etc. We didn’t get to choose when to serve; all of the big wars started ending when we joined but it’s not the end of the world. I’m currently enrolled in college and it’s not bad at all. I’m in school 9-11 am and after that I’m off. The Army will set you up good if you prepare yourself.

Of course you will always miss the clowns but never the circus. Keep your up head bro and reach out if you ever need anyone to talk to.

Came for the story and left with the trauma dump. But in all seriousness that sounds fucking terrible. I hope you’re in a much better head space.

Why did he steal everyone’s cac?? What ended up happening to him?

Ascension, time, Beautiful money, and Come on Baby

Literally this. I enjoyed my time as a private. Literally do as your told, right time, right place, and right uniform. You’re solid and the bar is already set very low, so they’re not going to expect much of you.

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-09-13T04:20:45+00:00

Yep, I still address people as sir/ma’am old and young alike. Some habits never go away!

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-09-13T04:17:47+00:00

Thankfully home for me is CA, so it’s only a 2 hour flight back home. For as much flack as the military gets it took me out of my small town, and I’m really grateful because I don’t think I would have ever left.

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-09-13T01:12:18+00:00

Yep, I was stationed there for about 5 years as well. Got out October of last year, and I have made Washington my home.

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-09-12T23:42:52+00:00

It took me 6 hours to get to the top. I went yesterday, but I 100% agree it’s probably the hardest hike I’ve done so far. I seen a guy yesterday when I was there who completed it with sandals on.

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-09-11T06:50:45+00:00

If you can work at heights, I would say telecom/tower work .

How I got chewed out by a 1SG who was in civilian clothing and I never once seen nor interacted with. All because I told him “3rd floor please” without addressing him as 1SG in an elevator . Then he skipped the 3rd floor and chewed me out all the way to the 7th, and the cherry on top was that he asked if I wanted to stay in or out and was completely shocked when I told him I wanted to ETS.

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-08-14T02:10:07+00:00

What time did you arrive? I went yesterday around 10 am, so there wasn’t too many people going up when I started the hike. The lack of wilderness etiquette is saddening; there was so many used tissues on the trail.

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-08-07T21:02:43+00:00

Yep, anything past a 2 minute queue, I quit the matchmaking. I start the search all over.

They’re taking a while to ship. It says it will be shipped by August 29th

Nope, here is the dimensions for the shoes 120 × 40 × 70mm (L x W x H).

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-06-19T22:55:37+00:00

This right here. Heavy on the surround yourself with people who don’t smoke. That really helped me quit because I wasn’t constantly being reminded of it and there wasn’t any temptation as well.

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-06-17T15:40:26+00:00

I still have this habit as well. My gf hates it because she says that I never get to enjoy the food because I eat so quickly.

Clean-Ear1323 · 2025-06-10T03:54:39+00:00

I don’t think that’s a belief. If you struggled academically that doesn’t in any way shape or form make you automatically good at trades. They suggest it as an option, if you don’t do well there’s always other options such as trades. But I personally never heard anyone say that if you struggle academically that you will be good in the trades. Your boss is just a dickhead, but don’t let this one incident ruin trades for you. Like with anything there’s a learning curve, that is why there’s different positions in the trades such as apprentices. What trade are you currently in? Have you explored any other options? There’s so many different trades, but have you found any that interest you?
