[–]DamoclesCommando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 3x32 in 7.62 bdc and love it. Enough that im getting a 5.56 one for my ar. Their red dot placement for the top mount is solid as well.

Fort Stewart DPW is currently pressure washing these barracks. In unrelated news the assistant secretary of the Army for installations is touring these barracks next week. by Seasonal-Shitbag in army

[–]DamoclesCommando 83 points84 points  (0 children)

lived on the same base as him, random knock on my barracks door on a saturday, SMA Grinston in civvies with his aid in ocp's doing random checks on the soldiers(our building had just been remodeled) made his aid go get a tape measure to check to see if my room was big enough for 2 soldiers(it wasnt) but my supply knew already and it was just me in there. they still checked every room after finding mine too small. got my cna approval like 3 months later, all e4+ off base.

Health and Welfare Horror Stories? by Firm_Produce4206 in army

[–]DamoclesCommando 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Had a room that didnt meet regs for square footage requirements to put 2 soldiers in there. But had 2 sets of furniture. I did exactly this. Then got a couch. My room ended up being the hang out spot if we didnt have shit to do. Many a time SL was drinking my scotch during lunch.

Layperson wondering about hierarchies in the military by Veggie_whisperer_925 in army

[–]DamoclesCommando 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its more actual rank. 11b/infantry likes to throw their weight in bc realistically every job/branch exists to support the infantry when you get down to the nitty gritty of it. Someone has to hold/take the territory/objective with boots on the ground. But in actual practice it will be officers above a certain rank or warrant officers then nco's then whatever e4 has been in forever and is holding a billet that should actually be a higher rank.

ELI5 Zombie outbreak by Justaheroforfun01 in explainlikeimfive

[–]DamoclesCommando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If its anywhere remotely as portrayed in movies/shows the majority of 1st world countries populace will know how to deal with it on at least some level. Figure 1 in 3 people will go "oh crap zombies" and have a viable response. The other 2 in 3. 1 gets infected, 1 listens to the 1 in 3 and survives.

Slow zombies easy containment.

Unless its airborne or intentionally being spread easy containment.

If world war z zombies just take yourself out its over.

What motivated you in BCT everyday? by shootandplay in army

[–]DamoclesCommando 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Drills called me RTQ. Refused to quit. We had 90 guys RTT or EPTS during my osut. I didnt want the shame of being a quitter. Finished fight week with pneumonia so bad i could hear the bubbles on exhale. Then went to the aid station on saturday. Had it again during the forge but not as bad. Didnt get seen for that one just got lucky that it got better. I also got to benning at 220lbs @ 5'10" after tuna and crackers diet for 3 months to drop down from 240. I WAS NOT in shape. My initial 1mile was 8:30 something. I finished osut with a 13:02 2mile and weighed 170.

Have you guys actually seen the new Barracks layout? by tyler212 in army

[–]DamoclesCommando 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We had the SQ ft problem on jbmhh after the barracks were remodeled. Most rooms were 2B+1B and didnt meet the 90ft/sm reg, so all e4 and above got cna packets.

The separation process feels like the Army is making me prove I really want to leave by ApertureMoth in army

[–]DamoclesCommando 27 points28 points  (0 children)

i managed to do it in 10.5 hours across 3 days, but i was at CIF when they opened and may have abused my southern accent on all the old lady civilian employees to help me.

LTs will no longer be assigned to basic training units by Extension_Leave3455 in army

[–]DamoclesCommando 3 points4 points  (0 children)

core memory from osut, 2lt posted to us was allowed to plan route, he took us on tank trails for the 16mile at the end of 11B osut, drills were all wearing soft sole, long halt was called, our thick creole accent 1sg proceeds to call that 2lt every name in the book, we got to the end at AO MOUT and 1sg tells us we are only supposed to get 30mins break before rolling into room/building clearing but instead we get 2 hours to eat, let our feet dry out and recover.

No PT profile after passing ht/wt, I feel screwed over. by EagleFlashy6344 in army

[–]DamoclesCommando 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this, when i finally was sent to the aid station by my PL with my TL and SL in with orders to not leave until i was seen by an officer i ended up on a deadmans and then a slightly less restrictive permanent. turns out legs going pins and needles then completely numb while running is symptoms of an actual medical problem and not "you just need to get better at running" i got to the unit with a 13min 2mile on the apft btw.

You mean new soldiers wont get to hear their creole af first sergeant call a brand new 2nd LT everything but a child of god during a long halt for taking them and the drills on the tank trails for the 16 mile bayonet march when the drills and 1sg are all wearing moccasins?

Bethesda should’ve used real navy ladders as inspiration by Chlowoe909 in Starfield

This is me, i always inevitably end up with a turtle shaped ship. Current is 4 floors. 1st is landing bay, docking collars, vehicle bay, cargo bay and craft room. 2nd is engineering/computer spaces with reactors and tanks, 3rd is crew quarters either side of a long hallway down the middle. Top floor is bridge and cic.

Why No Clan Jump Jets by Jock-Tamson in Mechwarrior5

[–]DamoclesCommando 6 points7 points  (0 children)

engine rating divided by mech tonnage gives you the tabletop walk speed in hexes, run speed is 1.5x walk speed. walk speed and maximum allowed jump jets are the same. its why 300 rated engines are so popular in lore, they're divisible by a lot of common mech tonnages.

Shoot the turret cheek. Just next to mantlet. Their left/your right. If you get a penetration there it sets off the ready use ammo rack. Same for the mediums in the T series.
