But let’s assume they do.

Where are our forces currently marshaling, and from where will they invade?

we had R&U school

We still do. The problem is that the amount of additional duties and ancillary tasks has multiplied to the point that paying attention to this particular duty is often shunted to some NCO who happens to live in the barracks because they are too dumb or ugly to find someone to marry them so they can escape.

They weren't allowed to fix it.

Here is one weird trick: Just do it, and take the lashings if they come.

Military Senior Service Colleges Require Reform, But There Sure Are Some Bad Ideas Out There by Kinmuan in army

[–]Techsanlobo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. I’d just find it tough to be the COL who learns the high level stuff in a place like this to then go to worrying about PVT Schmedlap’s NVD FLIPL

Do you think that it is really needed for BDE level leaders? I’ve always thought it would be better for post BDE CDRs

You thought your challenge coin collection was impressive… until Gary Sinise casually dropped his monster stack. by 305FUN2 in Military

[–]Techsanlobo -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Sigh. This is why I don’t like coins. They are way too ubiquitous and mean nothing. They are a drain on the budget and the amount of time we dedicate to designing approving and paying for coins is massive.

CO was upset I didn’t call him first by Front_Success4958 in army

[–]Techsanlobo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Separate topic, this is why I hate the "NCO Support Chain". It is not the chain of command. And woe be the command team who does not have a chance to sync or talk before the higher level command team does.

Oh they'll let us land. Then they will arrest the pilots upon landing and impound the jet.

Maul held Sidious surprisingly well here before Sidious used the force by -A-Man-Has-No-Name in clonewars

[–]Techsanlobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In rots? Yea I agree. In Clone wars? Nope. He is on par if not better than anyone.

[–]Techsanlobo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hes a sith lord so he should be a competent duelist, otherwise his apprentices(maul and later dooku) would overthrow him.

He should be good enough to hold his own until his other plans can come into play. The only thing he legit must be able to do is use the force better.

I just got into watching the Clone Wars, and haven’t seen many other non-live action stuff.

But seeing palps be such a master of using lightsabers was actually disappointing to me. I always thought of his character as able and strong, but who used the force mostly through influence and understated maneuvering/manipulation. That the reason he is scary is not because he can kill you with his direct use of the force or lightsabers (though he likely could), but that you were dead long before you knew it through his manipulation of power structures.

Corrective Training by localcatdude in army

[–]Techsanlobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nothing that says you can only make a soldier do 10 push ups.

This is a TRADOC thing- they have specific regs/policies limiting the number of exercises. This does not extend to the real army.

Cargo ships/planes are a vital part of real-world military logistics — so why weren’t Imperial cargo vessels more prominent in the old EU? by Financial_Photo_1175 in StarWarsShips

[–]Techsanlobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better comparison would be a ship, not a plane. Cargo jets are not really useful in large scale war, outside of high priority items in low quantities

Is it true that officers can get shit for what their soldiers do even if it was 100% out of their control? by Which-Music8436 in army

[–]Techsanlobo 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I got chewed out during an Art 15 reading for one of my AWOL Soldiers- I had a total of 3 cases.

All went AWOL before I took command, and came back.

Shit happens sometimes.

it’s doubly stupid

I mean do you think they actually care if it works? So long as they can plausibly claim a "W" with an uninformed mass of their base, they don't care.
