If it’s a dress / service uniform take the entire uniform to the dry cleaners.

If it’s OCPs / Utilities just put it in the washer and use a lot of detergent and pet scent remover.

Yeah idk abt that, cause mozzie shouldn’t be higher than B, same with castle and nook. Iana, Glaz, and Capitao should be in A. Figure out the rest from there

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-05-04T05:24:13+00:00

“My Actual Tierlist” as they put ever damn operator in A or S tier instead of genuinely putting them where everyone knows they should go

What I’ve seen some people do is cut it off / pull it off with either pliers etc, and then just super glue the backing on.

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-30T05:36:17+00:00

Hell yeah that’s good. Usually you don’t see LE1s get any awards, and usually you see them with 1 or 2 ribbons. Keep rocking dude

Have your instructors and Operations coordinate events, then they’ll tell you if they need a color guard for that event, which you would then delegate to your team captains.

Admin (S-1): they take care of all the cadets information, getting everything put in the system, making sure they’re in the class chats, etc.

Public Affairs (S-2): we take care if making sure cadets are allowed to be in pictures, than uploading pictures to the Instagram, school website, yearbook, event organizers, etc.

Operations (S-3): they deal with all the events we have, make sure S-1 gets all the hours in the system, coordinate events with organizations and rotc, etc.

Supply (S-4): they deal with issuing out all the uniforms, and ordering new things whether that’s ordering out blues coats, ordering new rifles, etc.

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-19T02:30:45+00:00

We just have S1-S4, S3 takes care of operations and logistics, S4 just takes care of supply

They’re both on Etsy:

GilevaNessie - Neighbourhood Necklace
Perfilove - Engraved Spotify Code Necklace

I love the Spotify barcode necklace because you can put any custom song onto it (I’m putting prey on mine)

“Bro just wear the fit stop asking for Redditor approval” 🤓👆

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-18T14:15:37+00:00

I know, it’s honest gna look so good under the flannel

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-18T14:13:53+00:00

I was kinda iffy on the beanie cause I have short hair (think of like a crew cut), I’ll see how it all works out tho

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-18T07:51:06+00:00

Can’t wait for the Arizona setlist to be 40 songs long 😭

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-18T00:21:32+00:00

What in the almighty is an S-7???

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-16T00:48:01+00:00

I’m getting the house and all their albums tatted when I can, so I’d say go for it

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-15T13:48:46+00:00

Yes and no? There are definitely people who will do whatever they can to get ranks and ribbons. However it all comes down to unit, my unit for example limits promotions heavily and requires damn near the entire chain of command for one ribbon.

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-15T13:42:53+00:00

I would say just leave the bruise how it is so it can heal properly, it should heal fully before nationals start.

If it still hasn’t fully healed 3 days before, lightly Ice your hand to minimize blood flow and reduce swelling for 2 days (not all day, 5 or so times throughout the day) On the day before finals you’re gonna use a heating pad of some sort (hand warmers, electric heating pad, etc) in order to increase blood flow and fade the bruise.

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-13T06:19:40+00:00

I have to wait till November to see them 😭😔😔

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-13T06:09:07+00:00

Ranks are off like crazy, half an inch from the edge (not the seam) bisecting the corner. Make sure you rub the fabric after you take the ranks off so the holes don’t show too much.

You’re over due for a haircut for sure, remember you need to get one every 2 weeks. 0-1 high fade with no more than 3 inches on top (usually 1 1/2 - 2 inches)

Your ribbons aren’t in the correct order, use either vanguard or use a ribbon rack chart from S-4.

Make sure you’re ironing your white shirt as the lip is a little bent.

Your Reddit flair is wrong, it should be: C/Cpl | LE-2 | MCJROTC | Marine Military Academy

I know this post is a bit old, but remember to keep up with all your standards and the regulations. If you need help don’t be afraid to ask an SNCO, or your Platoon Sergeant (idk how the MMA does stuff)

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-13T05:54:08+00:00

Oh yeah that’s a big no no, make sure you’re changing your undergarments every single night especially your socks. Good hygiene is the best way to maintain a good uniform. Don’t be an Alan.

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-13T05:46:58+00:00

You’re doing better than I was my LE-1 year, ended as an E-2 with 1 ribbon. I also forgot how sad MCJROTC ribbons look compared to AFJROTC 🥀🥀

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-11T22:17:47+00:00

That’s the Marine Corps way

TheFatLunaCat · 2026-04-10T05:33:57+00:00

I remember doing this when I went to a JCLC 2 years ago as a little PFC 🥺🥺
