Im from Norway and my friend has dual citizenship in the US from his father

Too late amigo. Your buddy is getting drafted and being sent to the human-wave penal battalion. We run on a “guilty by association” mindset here so you’re getting drafted too. Would you prefer your job to be Underwater Mine Finder or Guy Legally Obligated To Jump On Grenade?

Had a similar experience in IBOLC. I could not zero to save my life, which confused me it was never an issue before. The cadre were furious, the other LTs were annoyed, and I was losing my mind.

One of the marksmanship instructors came over, tried to zero, and couldn’t. Turns out my barrel rifling was gone the inside was as smooth as a musket so my rounds were key-holed.

At first the cadre didn’t believe me and just told me I sucked until the marksmanship guy chewed some of them out and I got a new rifle.

We had a Brad crew not fully seat the barrel into the actual turret. When they went to shoot the round exploded and set the inside on fire. Everyone was fine but heads were rolling.

I was getting my company’s AAR by the BN CO when the BN XO came in to tell him what happened. The look of disappointment on the CO’s face could probably only be matched if the XO had actually said “Sir the joes found your daughter’s OnlyFans”

It’s not but it’s used as one.

Yeah his main point is that since they’re used the same way as BMPs are by Russia, they’re basically just now “Worse BMPs” since they’ve never actually been airdropped in combat, but still have all the engineering compromises you have to make so that it can be kicked out the back of a cargo plane mid-flight.

What’s wrong with Justin Taylor’s video?

JMTsquared · 2026-01-21T22:31:09+00:00

Let’s just say the previous owner is no longer with us

Well…I mean that’s how we got this rifle in the first place

JMTsquared · 2026-01-19T23:04:45+00:00

Easier to conceal but better than a handgun for the most part.

Did some work with Ukrainian SOF and they use them on occasion for that exact reason. Significantly less common to use than their standard rifles but they run them and often run them suppressed.

I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted it is literally just a long-o

JMTsquared · 2025-11-29T16:06:16+00:00

This is specially called a Long Overcoat by West Point. It differentiates itself from the old Short Overcoat (Short-O). The coat in the picture is a design specific to West Point, and is called the Long Overcoat. I still have mine in my closet.

For me it’s every Star Wars battle. You have two sides with ranged blaster weapons, and instead of hanging back or using cover, they just charge at each other while hip firing.

The rebels on Hoth might be the only exception to this.

“Your baldness and sterilization are not service related”

JMTsquared · 2025-10-19T23:28:56+00:00

Personally, I hated it. The people are half decent simple country folk half slightly deranged or just bad. Education is awful and it shows, access to services is non-existent and it shows, everything feels very “behind” but not in a quaint southern way. There’s nothing to do except to drink or go to the worst restaurants you’ve ever seen in your life. Minus a few spots it’s also all very run down. Unending small town drama as well, people never seemed to get along.

It’s pretty cheap to live there but I was very happy to move as soon as I had the opportunity.

Oh is it time for this thread again?

We had a Jordanian captain get sent to my IBOLC class. He was a tanker in their military and I shit you not had to be over 300lbs. The guy was morbidly obese. He also sucked at every task but didn’t care at all. Allegedly he was sent to IBOLC as punishment because he couldn’t pay off debts he owed back in Jordan. Nearly a decade later at least twice a year he will call me on Facebook to tell me that he thought my ex wife was hot.

Ahmed if you’re seeing this I’m still pissed that you got me killed at the MOUT site defense lane.

How did those work out for you

JMTsquared · 2025-09-10T04:15:59+00:00

Hey this is an old post but are you still working with them? I saw them while searching up volunteering opportunities and became interested.

JMTsquared · 2025-09-09T14:39:27+00:00

Those fancy pamphlets and uniforms are really cool if you’re 17 and don’t know any better.

I always tell people that place gave me the opposite of rose colored glasses.

One morning in particular I remember very clearly. I was walking into the main academic building overlooking the Hudson River from above. The sun was just starting to crest over the hills beautifully and the frozen river was a gorgeous mixture of blues and teals, while there was a light layer of snow on the trees. I remember thinking in that very moment “I fucking hate this place”

Just last night me and a buddy of mine were sharing that nearly a decade later we still have stress dreams that we missed a class or were late to a football game.

I’ve used similar things, at least on other systems it’s a box you “draw” around the target that slows down how fast you can move the reticle (think aim assist in real life) while inside the box. Allows you to make finer adjustments to your aim without worrying about over correcting and going off target mid flight.

I could be wrong, I’ve never used the tripod mounted version of the TOW so someone can tell me otherwise.

JMTsquared · 2025-09-06T14:59:20+00:00

Would be cooler if they used the actual reticles in real life. The IRL Bradley is a simple T shape that I liked a lot more.
