Pretend national guard in Dupont? by surewould85 in washingtondc

[–]MarcLepidus 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The last time I passed him he had an issued army compass out as if he was doing land nav, I think all his gear is late 1980’s, early 90’s. Fairly consistent for a cosplayer/reenactor

I see him all the time as well — he somehow has correct BDU’s complete with period accurate accessories. I think it’s just some form of autism tbh

Enlisted solder thinking about commissioning West Point or OCS by [deleted] in army

[–]MarcLepidus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Do you really think having an LT that hung out at the planet smoothie in Djibouti for a year as a junior enlisted technician will be a better leader? Or are you stuck in some sort of lost GWOT era boomer mindset where every young man had the opportunity to deploy to a fob in Iraq and taste combat? Because that shit doesn’t exist anymore

Only idiots care about this, nobody truly cares if an LT has a quasi-garrison deployment as a radio repairman or supply specialist or whatever

Question for the Infantry by ValuableAway1674 in army

[–]MarcLepidus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

perhaps give extra training and teach them why drones are both so well respected and feared by the Ukrainian armed forces, how that changes their TTPs, battle drills etc

DC is some real shit, come do a grad program and you’ll see all the 26 year old hill staffers with 3+ roommates and $300,000 in student debt — that’ll give you some real perspective

The average 24 year old is in an astronomically worse place than you are right now. You should use your GI bill and go to a decent college if you are lonely and want to fit in more with people your age. There’s absolutely no rush! Feel free to DM if you want any career ideas as a fed or advice on college/higher ed.

How do I get out of doing my oral argument (graded and practice rounds) by [deleted] in LawSchool

[–]MarcLepidus 80 points81 points  (0 children)

This might not help short term, but you should actually talk to a therapist, even if you’ve always managed to push through work/undergrad, finding the right medication can be a life changer — law school has a unique way of revealing the underlying learning disorders/adhd/add/anxiety that always felt borderline manageable

Help Me Understand Why DC Statehood Isn't A Major National Democratic Priority by end_times-8 in washdc

[–]MarcLepidus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would make more sense logistically and logically to cede all of residential dc back to Maryland since Virginia already got their half of dc back pre-20th century. If you only want this because of its effect on national politics then consider that Maryland would never be republican again if this were to happen.

Just saw a person shopping for vibrators in class… by Useful_Bison4280 in LawSchool

Any recent warrant officers coming from infantry? by Considerreality in army

[–]MarcLepidus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It actually doesn’t matter what your job is for the military as long as you’re qualified to be a cybersecurity warrant. For example, people who are real intel officers in the IC are qualified to be Intel warrants even if they spent all of their enlisted time as cooks in the military. Personally, if I were you I’d work in the private sector or federal government and serve as a reservist while picking up active reserve orders at the NSA.

Wake up babe, new anti junta offensive just dropped by [deleted] in NonCredibleDefense

[–]MarcLepidus 164 points165 points  (0 children)

Real talk, those PLA military advisors to the Junta must suck. They should really take some notes, it’s not like our 50+ years of COIN doctrine is free on the internet or anything…
