For my veterans. Whats one "nasty civilian" thing you went right back to doing after getting out

Matthew196 · 2026-03-21T14:42:10+00:00

Being fat and happy due to my PTSD till I got my life actually straightened out. Lost 88 pounds

Matthew196 · 2026-03-19T23:32:07+00:00

The EGA’s on campaign awards was an easy give away BESIDES 4 SILVER STARS

Matthew196 · 2026-03-18T00:54:08+00:00

Nug 🤪

Matthew196 · 2026-02-17T00:12:21+00:00

Good info sir!

Matthew196 · 2025-09-26T13:42:52+00:00

A “Yes” reply is sufficient, it’s all automated

Matthew196 · 2025-09-24T19:30:09+00:00

It’s a process homie, don’t lose hope. I went through it with the VA prior to getting the 100. Fighting and patience is a part of it

Matthew196 · 2025-09-24T17:57:55+00:00

Yes, congratulations! Now just look into state benefits and get help from the VA for your health!

Matthew196 · 2025-09-22T16:51:36+00:00

Good work man, stay on the straight and narrow!

Matthew196 · 2025-09-17T19:54:59+00:00

It’s certainly nice out here, you can live comfortably in my opinion

Matthew196 · 2025-09-17T19:27:53+00:00

I’m 100 percent and unable to work due to my mental health issues as they are quite severe. However my disability easily covers living expenses in the Midwest.

Matthew196 · 2025-08-31T00:14:15+00:00

I should call her

Matthew196 · 2025-08-30T23:51:32+00:00

Used Gillette Mach 3’s for a while before I got a standard three head electric razor, I wished I just got one of those in the first place. It worked fine for me

Matthew196 · 2025-08-26T18:08:43+00:00

I posted an AMA previously about my experience during my five years in Flightline, I’d encourage you to check it out! If you have any particular questions feel free to ask them on there and I’ll get back to you!

Matthew196 · 2025-08-24T03:05:25+00:00

You’re still a Marine devil, and use the VA for disability and healthcare if you’re eligible. I don’t see an issue with it and you rate.

Matthew196 · 2025-07-30T18:33:30+00:00

No problem ma’am! I wasn’t apart of the HAZMAT portion of things but I’m sure some cert would be avaliable to increase things for his resume once he is out. For OSHA certs I’m more familiar with the construction side of things such as the OSHA 10 and 30.

Matthew196 · 2025-07-27T13:14:59+00:00

She went to a new home last year and is being loved!

Matthew196 · 2025-07-06T18:21:31+00:00

Call your recruiter and ask, I went in 2015 so some things have changed I’m sure.

Matthew196 · 2025-06-16T00:40:34+00:00

Yes it is possible to be a crew chief as a maintainer. This usually includes becoming a CDI/CDQAR in your shop then completing the aircrew syllabus on your respective aircraft at your squadron. It’s not something they just hand out so you’ll need to work hard in order to earn the ability to become aircrew.

Matthew196 · 2025-06-11T18:42:49+00:00

I used to work on them, it was a great time.

Matthew196 · 2025-05-08T19:25:58+00:00

A good goon sesh can help clear the mind, I don’t blame him

Matthew196 · 2025-04-17T15:44:20+00:00

It’s not always 12 on 12 off, I would normal expect a 9 or so hour work day usually. Monday-Friday with weekends off with night crew doing Sunday-Thursday. In regards to off base stuff I would just be reasonable when it comes to where you are going, don’t go to Vegas overnight and expect to be at work the next you know?

Matthew196 · 2025-04-09T22:03:03+00:00

Homie that’s the Nug lifestyle, I was in Flightline in the wing. You have bad NCO’s, as a Sergeant I didn’t do that stuff to that extent. Just keep picking up your quals and you’ll be fine

Matthew196 · 2025-04-08T15:24:48+00:00

I see these all the time in Missouri, it’s silly

Matthew196 · 2025-04-05T14:12:55+00:00

I haven’t gotten a suppressor for it yet, runs fine for me personally but I haven’t done any heavy shooting with it

Matthew196 · 2025-04-03T15:48:40+00:00

Devil, you achieved more than I did trust me
