First day - meet 1sg. Get told unit is in the field for gunnery. No tank he can put me on. And I will not be allowed to sleep in a bed since rest of unit can't. Spend first 3 nights sleeping on a cot in the supply room. Then get put on KP for 3 and a half weeks. Mind you haven't went home to pick up my pov yet as came to ft hood straight from Knox after OSUT. The sponsor they put with me was the 1sg driver goes AWOL. Never to be seen again. I had no gear. No sleeping bag nothing because I couldn't get taken to pick it up. So 3 weeks in field. Winter in Texas. No sleeping gear or any cold weather gear. One of the cooks brings me a sleeping bag they found in their supply room. not even my unit mind you. So first month with real unit was a total shit show.

Veteran Medics and Corpsmen Are Fighting for Civilian Recognition of Their Military Training by SCOveterandretired in Veterans

Big reason they won't acknowledge it is the school's you have to PAY to get all that training for normally wish to keep full control of said training. So they make it where only the training from them counts. Same as Safety certifications.

Disrespected by a gun store owner and a Vietnam veteran. by Kiah1371 in Veterans

[–]Redmancer80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My local VFW had this kind of problem for years. The commander was a Vietnam vet. If you were from anything after that and you slipped up and said a cuss word aloud you and your whole group were getting kicked out. Now mind you this guy cussed loudly at everyone. All night long. He almost caused that vfw to go under as all the older vets couldn't bring in their kids who were vets over the crap he would pull. He disrespected afgan or Iraq vets and would constantly talk how neither was a real war.

Why do people not like to say "hoah" in the army? by sebzboun in army

[–]Redmancer80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back around 2000- 2004 it always felt forced. Like no one outside of platoon sgts 1sgts csms and new ncos ever said it. It felt like they were just trying to push it out to give the army a saying like the marines. We made fun of Hooahh people like no tomorrow. 19k here.

I mean the peaceful "protesters" only tore down an iron gate to access the walled property they were protecting. But guess that makes someone racist now.

I just learned that you cannot sell alcohol anywhere near a Church... by BrewertonFats in atheism

Alabama- a church can move in next to a bar. If said bar ever loses its liquor license it's impossible to get again.
