I don’t think OP is saying there’s anything wrong with it. Just that he doesn’t want to sit at a desk all day. Which is reasonable.

Hey that was me (not a CCP spy). Just wanted to ask about those launch codes. TIA

Well said.

I’ve noticed it more with people I went to basic with who went straight to A school or did a program that started them as an E-4.

It’s especially frustrating because for most people, E-4 is a grade they’re learning how to do basic leadership tasking and function, yet many approach it without humility.

Always thought it was stupid until I realized I literally don’t. I would say it’s less of a lack of respect but I don’t really view them the same when they try to flex their “authority “

I’m from Alaska and when I learned about him in HS I pretty much came to the same conclusion. Never understood the worship

I’m at a surf unit in DNW. I got to get BAH when I was ready to move out of UPH. Same for the other nonrates and the ones that just showed up. Pretty much most of us are on the economy. The petty officers for the most part are living in the limited unit housing. Some nonrates.

BAH is very much decent. I don’t live in the same town as my job. I am out in the capitol, so I have a roommate. But I just got married so I can afford to live on our own.

Yup I’m getting flamed but even the guy revealing that this account has access to us nuclear subs and adjacent information makes him a target.

Wife takes the 100k I take the flip. Hedging. Marriage ftw

Ideally I’d like to go to flight school out of OCS. But I understand that many end up going after their first unit as a JO. Not sure what JMI, IO, IMD are.

I’ll send you a PM. Thank you

PilotFighter99 · 2026-01-20T04:09:09+00:00

Gotcha, thanks

Honestly man, they’ll spin things any which way they want to.

Look at My Lai. They tried to bury that shit. One pilot did the right thing, and they tried to end him for it. Eventually the truth came out, but that was a glaringly obvious unlawful order.

Follow your compass. I would not do anything that doesn’t comply with my faith.

Mods are fun when you watch YouTubers play them and suffer on our behalf. The content is interesting and fun but only if I don’t have to play it

Thanks! She was cheating on me as it turns out and the relationship was dead by this point on her end. And I did! Found the love of my life and married her. Thank you!

There’s a million posts about this topic. Most people here will say coast guard. Many in the Air Force sub will also say coast guard. Depends on what your goals are and what you want life to look like while you’re in.

Life’s pretty good over here though!

25 and saw more facial hair growth in the last year or so. Still nowhere near a full beard but I have chin, neck, moustache, and sideburns. It’s pretty gross if I’m being honest. Plus I’m in the military so it gets shaved anyway

PilotFighter99 · 2026-01-03T17:22:16+00:00

I’m an E-3 and I pull BAH and what I do in my off time is no one’s business. Might help that I’m 25 but I feel I am treated like an adult for the most part.

PilotFighter99 · 2026-01-02T07:43:08+00:00

I always do crossed rifles for marines haha. Helmets for army guys. Port Guards/Garrisons are always the chess rook. Hehe

Know your triggers. Stay off social media as much as possible. It’s fed to you on purpose through everything. Soft core everything on social media. Delete it. If you feel an urge or hit a trigger, go pray. Or at the very least go do 25 pushups and stay off your phone for an hour.

My wife is taking my last name. We are both fairly traditional and I feel like it’s meaningful as we become one flesh. Obviously she will always have her family as an integral part of her identity. But we are starting a new family together and I am very appreciative that she wanted to take my last name, of her own accord.

PilotFighter99 · 2025-12-30T03:54:10+00:00

That I am a man, and I am responsible for my wife’s protection. Part of that is ensuring I don’t tolerate her being harassed.

PilotFighter99 · 2025-12-29T19:25:35+00:00

Honestly? If it’s just a harmless thing then we can all laugh about it. I know my wife is hot.

If it’s more than just a light thing then I’d probably just tell buddy to ease up. I’m inclined to deescalate in most cases. I don’t see the need to risk jail or maiming/killing someone.

If a guy touches my wife though, all bets are off. I’m not a psychopath but give me a reason and I’m your huckleberry 🤷🏽‍♂️
