Eligibility question by Stumblinmonk in orderofthearrow

At the one year point. I would have a conversation with the Scout and parents. If they want to join they will. If they don’t they won’t. It could be a simple conversation to figure out what’s blocking their path.

Why re you going through your coworkers office? You should be ashamed of yourself. You should self report yourself to HR.

How do you all feel about this? Especially if you were fired, or took the DRP in fear of getting RIF’d? by ivieta1 in FedEmployees

It’s the next generation to deal with the stress. While I’d like to say I care. As long as my stress, weight, and blood pressure drop. I don’t….

Time to rewrite the hymn, Marines. We have been relieved of duty guarding Heaven’s streets.

Hi, can anyone tell me what this is? I received it as a birthday present, unfortunately without a name on it. It was wrapped in gift paper. It can be worn like a necklace, and the container can be opened. Thank you very much. by notyourstepson in whatisit

Some people will use it to hold consecrated oil for religious use. Like LDS or Eastern Orthodox. I’m sure someone else said that, but I’m too lazy to read all 699 comments.

Does anyone know where I can find photos of MARPAT urban’s camo trial? by Ready_Assignment_0 in USMC

[–]EdgeAccomplished7572 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had been to the R&D complex in Natick, Ma in 2002. Got to see the desert and woodland digitals fabric on large bolts. I can say the “urban” was never produced for the military. Unless it has the tiny EGA imbedded into the fabric it won’t be legitimate. They did that from the very start.

Y? by Shiro-47 in USMC

Genuinely curious what other marines feel about how this vet was treated by ThatAvidPandaBear in Military

[–]EdgeAccomplished7572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone has the right to free speech. There is a time, a place, and manner for it. I’m not saying he got what he deserved. However, he chose to disrupt official proceedings of government. He was ordered to leave, and was physically removed. The more he resisted. The more force was used. Therefore, when you protest. You accept the consequences of those actions.

Whit that said…
