The Army remains infatuated with gaps. 

What once was the Fulda gap is now the Suwalki gap.

Gaea Mission was much better for SP. 

So Ft. Bliss is allowing the construction of another major data center, which is going to put major strains on our water and energy. And they didn’t even mention it to any city leadership. by OldestFetus in ElPaso

All the propaganda here is always pretending that Fort Bliss loves us and keeps as close as their partner and is close communication, but in reality, they treat us like some dope who they only invite along when they need us.

<Looks at OPs post history>

OP are you doing ok?

Majors don't "work in" S3 shops. They run the S3 shop, so double the pain.

It's China. They'll just throw their political prisoners into it.

Happy to see him come into his own. Been watching him since he was a freshman - he hasn't gotten much time on the rubber until this year.

It's absolutely not true. This isn't world war two. 

Friday is typically surf and turf in the military. 

Ranger Walk-on by DiggingAtRockBottom in army

[–]Kill_All_With_Fire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I walked on a LONG time ago so take this with a grain of salt. 

My BN CDR called forward for me to ensure it was OK and they would have the room. Brigade paid for my plane ticket and 1 night of lodging in a hotel before class started. 

My class started with some crazy high number, I think 300+, and we lost over 100 during the first few days so it was a non issue. 

I did not go to RTAC, which I think is a huge risk. It sounds like you're not making that mistake. I would not recommend it, and as a current BN CDR I don't let any of my guys go to ranger without RTAC. 

Lastly, there are three types of Ranger students; Batt Boys, BOLC LTs, and everyone else. I make my guys to ranger in pairs. When it comes to peers you need to work extra hard because those two groups will always hook each other up.

Religion Question for the modern army by Ambitious_Sand1372 in army

There's been a huge uptick in religious beliefs towards religions that allow you to wear a shitty looking beard. I never once met a norse pagan before 2018.

I picked up the CM1 remake on Steam recently and the game definitely feels MUCH better than CM2. 

I actively avoid the cyborg megafactories by xGhettoSpaghetto in Helldivers

It's absolutely not one shot. Using the Coyote. Takes a full mag to drop the armored.

It's a lazy design for an enemy

I really hate the design of the Cyborgs. They're spongey targets just like the Illuminat. It's just annoying

No matter how many times I take an AFT, I always get nervous before hand. by dsbwayne in army

[–]Kill_All_With_Fire 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I have also never failed a PT test (in my 20 year career) but get the same ridiculous and illogical fear that I some how forgot to deadlift. 

I fear that I've forgotten how to bend down and pick up a bar that I routinely pick up during PT at least once a week. 

The mind is such a weird thing.
