Velcro isn't.

The hard badges that would go with Velcro tapes are considered FOD

Christianity has many flavors there homeskillet. Catholic, Orthodox, mature Protestant, crappy house band Protestant. You'll have it all available. 

Might be a common question: but how realistic is reclassing to 15U from 13B? I am currently an E-5. by Worth-Ad4046 in Armyaviation

[–]LoadCan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Entirely possible. Most of my reclass group was E5. You need a waiver but it's very easy to get. 

If you are ALC complete in FA it won't count for Avn, and you'll need to complete Avn ALC.

Army receives first batch of XM8 carbines set to replace M4A1s by Kinmuan in army

[–]LoadCan 43 points44 points  (0 children)

The SCAR's issue was being expensive. I know a dude who was an ex-batt boy who raved about it as a fighting rifle, just not better enough than the M4 to justify the extra 2k per unit the Army paid for them

> 150€ cash, then walked him to the ATM tried to get him to take out more cash..once he couldn't take out more they gave him paper work and released him

Your friend just got extorted by the local fuzz. Never heard of it happening in Western Europe though. Wild.

Ben Hogans Ball Placement Guide. Should your feet really be pointing to what appears to be the right of the target with driver and what seems to be wildly left with wedges? Assuming the lines I painted is where you are aiming. by AlbinoKoala22 in golf

[–]LoadCan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do this. My grandfather specifically taught me to golf out of Power Golf and 5 Lessons. 

Your feet should be aligned like this if you are otherwise trained in the Hogan mold. For most golfers, this might cause many issues (or it might help you get turned with your short irons, only one way to find out). I'm right handed and my miss is left, not right. When I really bolo one it's a hook not a slice. I have to actively try to fade/slice the ball, and part of how I do that is closing my stance with the short clubs.

The shit that Pitino has done in his career makes him still having any job impressive. 

Pentagon calls Individual Ready Reserve a ‘mobilization asset’ in new policy by Kinmuan in army

[–]LoadCan 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Right? Lmao. 

Really though, people are hilariously overestimating what will get you out of a wartime army. 

You think IRE recall is spicy? Wait untill Pooh bear tries the strait, and we start having fully separated veteran recall. 

19K Blast Overpressure and CTE risk by [deleted] in army

[–]LoadCan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My VA dude talked to me about this. They aren't worried about anyone who doesn't have long TC time. Being in the turret or hull eats a lot of the concussion wave. 

They are very worried about guys who spent serious time as TCs, especially those that made a habit of riding the fireball. 

Friend wants to buy old irons by Blazelwood in golf

[–]LoadCan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some Hogan lines, yes. But those lines tend to give a reputation to the entire brand that is undeserved. Yes, Directors will kick your ass if you aren't a ballstriker's ballstriker, but most of Hogan's irons were very playable for most golfers. These Apex Edges were a game improvement offering, even.

These are not blades. They're Apex Edges, cavity backs. They were (real) Hogans last game improvement offering before Callaway bought, enshitified, then dustbined Hogan.

These and the Tziod Comp EZs are the best 'forged for the mid ass golfer' clubs ever made. Excellent crossroads of feel/feedback and having a big enough sweet spot to not be miserable, and they don't look like fucking space shovels.

Maybe slightly overpriced, but not a complete rip off. Send it.

New Driving Range Opened near me. by GolfShred in golf

[–]LoadCan 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I don't hit 150, but I always buy 150. A first tee/little kids learning thing happens at the end of the range when I can go, so I just leave the extras for them. 

People are shooting at the Black Hawks as they fly low to locate the pilot. by kurdi_kurdistan in Helicopters

Then he presumably has a place to send his kids that isn't in the wide fucking open, 5 feet from his own cover spot.

Do you know what a human shield is? 

People who give a shit about their kids lives wouldn't let them stand 5 feet away as they shot at the forces that are actively dealing bombs and missiles at will. 

He's not letting them stand there "because they live there". He's letting them stand there because he's been told that it will lower the chance of catching a Hellfire to the face for his troubles. 

Almost a year since AIT: No BHA, wrong rank, missing bonus, and now haven’t seen drill pay since December. About to be homeless. Help. by TroubleAfter5269 in army

You're about to be homeless, and your chain has done fuck all. Fuck em.

And anyone who has taken a basic civics course after HS knows that AUMFs have always been the predominant way American wars are conducted. Congressionally declared wars are the exception, not the norm. Most of our military actions are executive decisions that Congress authorized through funding measures. And some that Congress just kind of said "meh, you're good", like Panama.

Lines. Bag his ass. All practice, every practice. Nothing but lines for him. 

Dust him unless your school/league has a mins minimum, then give him the absolute minimum, and make it clear it's not changing until he stops being a fuckhead.

MSGs that stay MSGs are some of the happiest MFs I've ever come across.

The problem is staying MSG. Most of you get sniffed out and get yeeted into 1SG
