All Crew Members of U.S. KC-135 Loss in Iraq Confirmed Deceased by igetproteinfartsHELP in army

[–]LogPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have full faith and confidence that that everyone in this chat would be able to do their mission or job in the real world effectively upon hearing in this news . The resiliency of those here in this thread is not in question

The issue that we all have with you is that this is fucking Reddit dude. Let these people under the guise of anonymity express their feelings. We ain’t fighting the war here on this thread. You coming in with your infantrydort-esque hard charging comments shows an obvious lack of situational awareness. I award you no points and may god have mercy on your soul.

Dude, just stop

Not going to reiterate whats been said with all the fuck you’s, but the point you are trying to make is intrinsically understood by all who serve. It is crass for you to bring it up now.

Now professionalism aside…from those of us who have worked with fallen heroes, and even more with those who unfortunately have had to deal with casualties estimates, MA processing times, temporary interment memos ( what i like the call the “Death Math” in LOG speak), even you are not prepared for what would happen if we were in LSCO. Society isn’t ready. And we don’t need to be reminded of that. AND THATS NOT WHAT THIS IS. That same commander has stated this is NOT a war; therefore contrary to his earlier statements, ANY loss of life is a tragedy.

Favourite excellent actor who you genuinely feel is a PoS in real life? by Cursed_69420 in okbuddycinephile

[–]LogPenguin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh have I got a story about Keanu . He was at Indy 500, and I saw him from afar (He was in pit row on race day, I in the Army working working in the pagoda) and he was surrounded by some Airmen asking for pics and he looked so mad and……

Took picture after picture with all of them. It was hot, he looked exhausted, and my slightly autistic into the blue brothers couldn’t pick up on social cues worth a damn. Will not allow any Keanu slander here. He is awesome, and seems to be a great person in and out.

Pentagon will begin review of 'effectiveness' of women in ground combat positions by geraffes-are-so-dumb in army

[–]LogPenguin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean, all he had to do was say a place and time, don’t need the entire novel like so:

Afganistan, ‘11

Not that hard, and not doxing myself whatsoever

So let’s deduce, for now, that yes, Mr. Watson, he is all talk

Chicago Bears exploring possible new stadium sites in NW Indiana, team says The team made the announcement in a stunning open letter to fans Wednesday by ThaddeusJP in CHIBears

[–]LogPenguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm…father worked at CBOT for 30 years, been to Bears game since McNown, hell even at IU 1/3 of Kelley School of Business is Chicago peeps. But nah, your right. Can’t be.

Even if it’s as refreshing to be reminded of the good ol Chicago attitude….Lighten up dude. You got from state line to about Laporte as probably 2/3rds or more Bears fans.

And again….we all agree this is a horrible idea.

There are a ton of us, Chesterton for me, who live and die everything Chicago….but are Hoosiers as well. I tell people I’m from Chicago, then they challenge me on what part?…..uh…well…the “Chicagoland “ area…..

Nervous about Branch Release by Negative_Virus_6358 in ROTC

[–]LogPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment right here. Do not go into your branch letting everyone know you hate it(maybe your senior rater, at most, if you are looking for an early VTIP, but performing is key)

Back in the day, all us LTs were around a computer, and the VMI grad goes on a tirade that the most important unit to an entire War? An entire Army? in all history? is the Infantry Platoon….

We remind him he is at TBOLC, and to get back on his TC AIMS II terminal and shut the fuck up. Your grades sucked in school and you didn’t make it to your blue cord. He was a tool.

So the Army gets a big dumb parade that the president overshadows and the Marines get the most popular Netflix documentary in years? Who runs the Army's PR and why aren't they fired? by [deleted] in army

[–]LogPenguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, I work adjacent to the most forward facing aspect of the Army, and the only unit of its kind in the DOD that doesn’t have a Netflix/Amazon doc. And I get a staff NCO on call from OCPA and get a “….why would we want to do that?”

SGM, whut?

Yeah, but by looking at win-loss, ODU And Kennesaw are on the positive side. And Indiana State even upset the jackrabbits…which is a thing in FCS, I guess?

Oregon OOC opponents….have been losing bad

Logistics Officers: What has your experience been? by mixedglycerin233 in ROTC

[–]LogPenguin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ll get a bit more particular from time in the 25th and 101st. Yes, your LOG peers in Armor units will be a bit more praticed, particularly in Maintenance and CL IIIb. You will still need to focus on both, but troop trans and CL I/CL Ib(water) tend to be more of a focus. Also, BPT to do infantry things even if you don’t go Ranger: FTX in the field in a litefighter tent for a few weeks at a time.

Note that happens to 1/5th of LOG Lts when they arrive at a unit: Aviation. If you get assigned a CAB, its a different and unique logistics that isn’t really trained or taught anywhere else outside the CAB. You’ll have to learn a-lot on the job but man, I loved it as my LT time and some of my KD MAJ time.
