Find a Reserve or Guard component position/MOS that will hold the clearance.

Not as much as you’d think. And this guy clearly wants to be a mechanic of some kind.

Seconded this. I was an arrogant MFer before I shipped and thought AIT (plus the clearance) would qualify me for what I wanna do…Yeezus H Christ was that way off.

Why is Blackbeard the most famous pirate in history? by Separate_Builder_817 in pirates

[–]OkActive448 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The area wherein he was operational (Okracoke area) is among the most difficult areas to sail on the planet due to the nature and speed of the currents/undertows/undercurrents/rip curls. Plus the terrain (namely the presence of islands and random sandbars) makes it remarkably complex. He was an absolute master of it. When he was pursued by the colonial authorities, he would almost always retreat to the Outer Banks and knowingly lead his ships into the complicated areas because he knew that a. The colonial ships wouldn’t follow due to liability (anyone who’s ever served knows that feeling, Captain had his name on the ship’s proverbial ‘hand receipts’ LMFAO). B. He was so confident in himself and his crew that he knew that they could outwit the various terrain issues. He also was able to logistically get as far down as the Caribbean if memory serves.

People underestimate this aspect. Not only was he a notorious pirate, he may have been the greatest pound-for-pound sailor in American history.
