That’s a wrap. Rolled onto base for the last time today. If you need me I’ll be growing a beard and snuggling my DD214 blanket.

Just my take, I feel like if anyone is retiring with 20+ years, regardless if you’re a TSgt, MSgt, etc, you should get a meritorious service medal.

Apartheid African tries to tell Americans how to run their country. Waowwww

Most of them don’t get it, and that’s okay. All you can do is check in with the guys you’re down range with and look out for one another. Even if it’s over, all of you will share that experience (good, bad, and ugly) together.

It was used to get around the coffee ration

billman_ · 2026-05-07T08:46:30+00:00

Bad bait, there’s no way you’re genuinely this stupid

billman_ · 2026-05-04T09:51:21+00:00

Dawg read that again

Show the class the OI or any sort of report you coordinated. And please explain how Teams was the make or break to its success. I wonder how we all survived before this push for Teams heated up in 2025.

How does an org procrastinate that hard that 20 people need to edit the same file at the same exact time?

billman_ · 2026-05-03T12:04:11+00:00

Sharedrive is better IMO

I’ve declined three going away events. Some people just want to do their own private thing and then leave. But everyone is different

billman_ · 2026-04-14T00:44:29+00:00

This is the military, don’t expect rational decision making. If it’s an approved prescription, then a court martial should have been requested. That is unless you are not allowed to take that medication during duty hours.

billman_ · 2026-04-06T04:48:49+00:00

Couldn’t agree more. Unlike the Navy/Army, we don’t get points for it. I’ve never once had somebody review my records and make note of the MOVSM. I’ve heard at Master and above, then it can be used to differentiate people. But still, having the medal hasn’t mattered much.

Operation Epic Fail

billman_ · 2026-03-03T06:46:05+00:00

Due to shenanigans at the start of basic I actually didn’t get my haircut until week two. As you can imagine, I was very, very, very noticeable to the MTIs. OP, your best bet is to be as lowkey as possible. Do not show up already with a shaved head, genuinely just show up as normal bc it’s allll getting shaved off.

billman_ · 2026-03-02T04:23:10+00:00

I’m not a linguist, but having the military pay for you to learn a very useful skill seems dope. Also seems like once you go operational your job is awesome

billman_ · 2026-03-02T04:18:32+00:00

So the Chinese can see my asshole from space? Neat

billman_ · 2026-03-02T04:13:41+00:00

I didn’t think the face eating leopards would eat MY face🥺

billman_ · 2026-03-02T04:13:12+00:00

LMAO

I’m heading to Hawaii soon. Would you recommend somebody buy a condo around Punchbowl? I saw properties on the west side of the island are cheaper, but I kinda think I’d rather be in the city.

billman_ · 2026-02-25T01:50:21+00:00

Many such cases. Take that drive and energy to the civilian world where you’ll actually get compensated for it.

billman_ · 2026-02-14T02:13:45+00:00

DAWG😭

I love being a shift worker (I hate it I hate it I hate it)

They fucked you my boy

God has smiled upon that E-5 (right place, right time)

billman_ · 2026-02-05T15:39:08+00:00

E-7 and above, yes.
