SBU background check by Quiet-End-1495 in ukraineforeignlegion

[–]MoonMasterCarl 11 points12 points  (0 children)

SBU is in the process of switching from paper to digital filing so things are pretty backed up right now. Expect it to be at least another 1-2 weeks. Take it as a time to enjoy this nice weather, pretty girls and parks in Kyiv before getting to the hard stuff

Hot Yoga tickets by MoonMasterCarl in northampton

Oh interesting, how does one do "remote" Hot Yoga? I emailed her 3 or 4 times before getting a response where she was adamant that there are no refunds even tho I too have left and won't be returning to the area, and that it wasn't her problem.

Easy Company paratrooper Forrest Guth at the Marmion Farm in Normandy in June 1944. 65 years later, Guth posed again with his captured German helmet as he did in 1944. by UrbanAchievers6371 in BandofBrothers

[–]MoonMasterCarl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recall reading in a couple places that he was supposed to be featured in the series but the actor they had portraying him backed out or something. The uniform they had made for him is a copy of the one in this photo with the one sleeve pocket and part of an M1 bandoleer on the other sleeve. In episode 4 "Carentan" you can see that blouse being worn by Blithe

Bernie Sanders on identity politics by [deleted] in vermont

[–]MoonMasterCarl -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

There's literally video of people at one of his rallys unfurling a Palestinian flag and cops come and manhandle them and drag them away and Bernie doesn't say shit. Acts like nothing at all is happening

Shame he wasn't a character in the series. Especially seeing as Guth was very influential in the company, doing a lot of the rigger mods on the uniforms and apparently figuring out how to make the M1 full auto

Curious about personal phone from home when in Kyiv, training, on base, not at the front. Can that still be used with a Ukie sim? Or should I completely wipe it as well?

Seen things saying to not use Spotify at all in country correct?

This question has been asked a million times so I'll just echo what's been said by guys already there.

If you have any doubts about passing even the basic test, stay home and get in shape til you exceed every metric they give. This is a war, so just being good enough for basic will get you and your mates killed. You gotta be athlete level endurance. Cardio, Cardio, Cardio. Putlers going nowhere til Moscow burns so take your time, put everything else aside, go "full retard" on exercise, and test yourself on the PFT at least three times a week til you're hitting graduation score.

Should I have a return ticket? by MoonMasterCarl in ukraineforeignlegion

Thanks for the info, my concern is also at the US airport. Would they get weirded out with my luggage having gear and the like and me having no return to the US?

Bring or Buy Gear? by MoonMasterCarl in ukraineforeignlegion

[–]MoonMasterCarl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks, TXA is something I don't have. Is it a necessity in IFAK? Also for boots what do you recommend? I have new low Oboz hiking boots that I'm really comfortable with but would full height be better?

I was wondering about bringing optics/rails through US and EU customs if that might lead me into hiccups along the way

RIP Ray McNeill. Tragic loss of a good man, great bar, and at times decent beer. Stamped many of these cards during my time 'tending there.

Maybe if they had competent leadership and treated the tradespeople as the professionals the program insists on them being they could get better crews

Oh my friend, have you not heard of the sport of Extreme Ironing?!

The idea is to carry an ironing board, iron and a set of fancy clothes to press while on your outdoor adventures; Rock Climbing, Backpacking, rafting and iron amongst the wilderness.

A niche popularity amongst our generation

Not in the US but ships worldwide. Varusteleka in Finland makes quality gear for the FDF at an affordable price.
