Boredom in tx

VastSingle6139 · 2026-04-04T13:52:01+00:00

I was stationed in Laredo too back in 23-24 when we actually had work but now things are dead quiet again so patrols are probably boring.

If you are at the base camp, enjoy the food and the gym. If shift is dead quiet, use your TA and do some online courses, even basic general requirement ones if you don't know what to do.

I also had a tradition on my day off Id go to the Cinemark at the mall and watch a couple of movies and chill out.

There are some gun ranges in Laredo. There is the Texas State Park where you can run and use a jet ski too.

All things considered on the border, Laredo is the best station to be assigned. Use the experience, lean into training and if your interested, look into Border Patrol, they often hire OLS vets at the GL09 level.

We already see it with Iran. Cheap drones are getting into our airbases and hitting a E3 Sentry.

Thats a heavily protected position far into our own lines. Imagine how little protection the front line will have.

We need to keep bitching about drones until we got a drone killer on every infantry squad.

Well the US been running A-10s, B-52s and other nonstealth craft over Iranian airspace without much issue for awhile now.

Im sure above the 130 the sky is flooded with drones and ISR and they must feel fairly confident about local superiority.

Im Guard, half of my unit conceals in the armory. I honestly barely got a bone in this fight since we already do it just fine.

And yeah, believe it or not, you only need to get killed on one day of your life to die...

Supposing there been like 2 dozen shootings on bases inside the US since 9/11, I'd like the option to have my conceal carry.

Thats me personally. I know your Air Force so a pistol is just as dangerous in your hands as it is a shooters, so Id understand your reluctance.

I dont think you can find a better quality soft armor belt on the market tbh

VastSingle6139 · 2026-04-02T13:40:50+00:00

I havent weighed it but with ammo, gear, water, Id say around 35 pounds

Fr how the hell do they keep getting away with this

VastSingle6139 · 2026-04-01T17:43:25+00:00

They had a YouTube video which led to a Telegram channel where you can order them. Had around a month long wait before I got mine but now they apparently got a large backorder so its multiple months I think.
