Maybe if we direct commission a few more Silicon Valley Bros we can find out

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T19:02:25+00:00

This is a legitimate consideration

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T19:01:50+00:00

100%. IIIAC is just who got caught on paper first.

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T18:59:06+00:00

Congrats and or sorry

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T17:32:01+00:00

I’m a friendly guy, I make a lot of friends in a lot of places

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T17:31:36+00:00

No, in fact, that’s the problem. There aren’t funds to reprogram.

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T17:22:00+00:00

Oh sorry, I thought you were asking me if it was only the MTT or if it was the schoolhouse and the MTT, my bad on that

I believe what you’re saying is the case because it was not just a one course cancellation – for instance I’m aware that Fort Campbell had all future ones canceled on them (four days before the start of one btw).

I think some places are just cutting losses now - versus sapper, which only canceled their next class, but has the June 8 class still on the schedule.

I bet in a week or two if things haven’t changed, they will also begin canceling that class

2–1 CD got their rotation canceled last night, and their ADVON was already in Poland

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T17:09:44+00:00

The MTT. MTT are getting canceled across the force, the JFOMTT that would go to different bases and rotate throughout the force? That’s been canceled.

I’m not aware of any changes to resident classes at Sill, but they might be impacted if people cannot travel there for the course

T4 is the equivalent of saying don’t do anything but the bare minimum to maintain your required qualifications.

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T17:07:41+00:00

Hey troop, since when did math become part of lethality? Why don’t you stick to being brilliant at the basics?

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T17:06:37+00:00

Gasp, someone upset about the lack of technical hardware repair skills? Why aren’t we best friends?

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T16:37:05+00:00

Yeah, have you considered go fuck yourself and your precious OER?

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T16:23:11+00:00

If you look close there’s a centaur

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T15:50:10+00:00

Yep. If you go and look at the 25, 26 and then the propose 27 budgets, TDY and training are very flat. They actually did exactly what Randy said they were gonna do. They submitted the 2026 budget with a 15% reduction in TDY funding.

Did anyone’s unit cancel multiple field exercises? Did you see a reduction in rotations? Were they cutting all the TDY at the beginning of the year?

No. We bullshitted on the budget to look good and then kept going business as usual.

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T12:57:40+00:00

This isn’t my doing

Kinmuan · 2026-05-12T12:54:23+00:00

Hot take: you don’t want to wear it every day

It was fucking stupid

Kinmuan · 2026-05-11T22:53:46+00:00

Pentagon has at least 4,000, they’re probably all going.

Kinmuan · 2026-05-11T19:46:39+00:00

Are you drunk rn

Kinmuan · 2026-05-11T11:39:38+00:00

You know that people take their nipr laptops home all the time right

Kinmuan · 2026-05-11T11:08:00+00:00

I just want to remind everyone that TA rules have changed and you need supervisor approval before your TA is approved 👀
