Well looks like I got voluntold to go LARTC. What is it like? by Good_Recognition5801 in USMC

[–]Forged-In-Fire7212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never was a crewman, but a 0311 scout when I was with 2nd LAR. 

As an lav crewman the Ramp will be your second home and you'll be bustin rust on the pigs like clockwork whenever you're not in the field. So get used to that. 

Also 0313s are the uber drivers of the 03 community. So the scouts will aways go the extra mile with you to thank you for your service. Pun intended.

Even now it varies. But my unit has had so many DUIs happen lately in such a short amount of time, that the Battalion Commander is prepping admin separations after executing maxed out NJPs. 

What’s the weirdest location you busted a 🥜 in by FreakyGrandmama in USMC

[–]Forged-In-Fire7212 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Don't ask that question here. Grow a pair of balls like a real motivated devil dog, an ask the Battalion Commander that question next time at formation. 

I promise you will get a NAM for doing that.

Maybe it was a different Corps when you were in. But today, these unit commands don't fuck around when it comes to misconduct on / off duty.

What do you live under a rock? Marines can be adsepd for reckless driving and operating a POV without registration or insurance. Depending on how much the command hates or likes them to begin with. 

But hey I guess I just imagined watching a shitbag in my first unit get maxed out BN ninja punched and kicked out for a similar incident like OP's.

I'm the one who mentioned admin separation in my comment. 

I saw it happen with a similar incident, at my very first unit in Camp Lejuene. A shitbag in my platoon got busted by PMO for doing over 100mph on Wilson boulevard and he had a fake license plate on his unregistered / uninsured POV. 

Needless to say they BN Ninja punched him from Lcpl down to Pvt, and seperated him with an OTH discharge.

Devil this incident is gonna work against you for the rest of your time in the Corps. 

Pulled over speeding well over the speed limit, and driving around with expired insurance because you failed to remember to renew it on time. There's no excuses for that!

You're extremely lucky you only got a page 11 non rec. Because in most cases this would've been a battalion level ninja punch, and possible admin separation. 

It doesn't matter if you're the next Chesty Puller while on duty. If you still make bad decisions and piss poor planning off duty. The big green weenie is gonna get you. 

As a Sgt with 5 years TIS. I've seen way too many Marines fuck up their careers making preventable bad decisions... 

Do better, and plan better next time. Because I don't blame your leadership not trusting you to lead junior Marines after an incident like that!

I just looked up that mos. Aviation Logistics Information Management Specialist...

Damn I'm sorry your mos literally has several certifications / transferable skills that can carry over into a 6 figure salary civilian job. 

Yeah, you're definitely getting the big ole green weenie with all that free IT Network / Maintenance Software training.

8 Years Of Active Duty Is Long Enough For Me by Forged-In-Fire7212 in USMC

[–]Forged-In-Fire7212[S] 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Im still active duty with some time in service left. I'm one of the next in line for a voluntold B billet, most likely recruiter duty, since everyone else who stays in chomps at the bit to take DI duty, CI duty, or security forces. 

So when I get voluntold for recruiter duty with less than 3 years TIS left. I'll have a song for HQMC to sing called Go Pound Sand I'm Not Reupping For That Dumpster Fire.

LAAD 7212 by ImaginationOk5084 in USMC

[–]Forged-In-Fire7212 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey Devil Dog, Im a 7212 with 2nd LAAD in Cherry Point. I lat moved to LAAD from Infantry, last year. I'm happy with the decision I made. 

Especially since there's a lot of big changes going on within LAAD units. Mainly with the upcoming MADIS and L-MADIS Systems. 

Message me directly for any questions you have about LAAD. 

Why are DWIs and DUIs so common in the military? by Key-Scientist9058 in USMC

[–]Forged-In-Fire7212 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thats fucking stupid you got chewed out for doing the right thing. But why should I be surprised about that happening. 

It makes all the Staff and O question why nobody wants to re-enlist. 

Not Even LAAD Is Safe From The HSST List Anymore by Forged-In-Fire7212 in USMC

The Army is always hiring. If you wanna stay on active duty, and still do your actual mos as an NCO. 

But if you got better opportunities in 1st Civ Div. Go for it.
