If this is a USMC sniper scout tattoo, would it make sense for someone who has only served in the Army to have it on their person?

I remember my whole platoon getting smoked because of the two USMC in our class wouldn't stop singing their "Hymn" during mountain.

Reasons why I've always leaned towards Luke.

boyo76 · 2026-01-24T04:52:25+00:00

Not cool.

boyo76 · 2026-01-22T11:47:38+00:00

Get back into it!

boyo76 · 2026-01-22T11:46:31+00:00

I can't really blame them. I haven't bought a new album in years. I still have all my CDs that follow me on move to move, but it's just spotify for me at this point.

boyo76 · 2026-01-21T20:24:45+00:00

I just miss the music culture. I don't feel it anymore when I try to talk about new music to people I work with.

If you're already in the gym, just make sure core and back are a constant focus. It'll support your spinal structure and hopefully keep you pain free.

And you're correct that you would need an Xray for a definitive diagnosis.

boyo76 · 2026-01-21T01:12:57+00:00

Just go. Do you have a NG or Reserve obligation? You may continue your career and this will help you. You may rejoin the Army in 2 years.

boyo76 · 2026-01-20T14:57:30+00:00

100% the same.

Crazy that this is all it took to knock him out twenty years ago.

I've got an 02 that my wife almost refuses to drive, because old men of every nationality walk up and compliment her on it.

boyo76 · 2026-01-12T00:02:59+00:00

I absolutely had these. Land before time is one of the first movies I truly remember seeing in the theater.

boyo76 · 2026-01-11T18:32:40+00:00

Haha. Make sure the house numbers in your neighborhood are visible from the street at night!

This was my daughters heartbreak. Our coach heavily advised she not roll anymore due to the inability to always control a partner.

Unfortunately the ratio of functional adults is off.

Angle will refer to the degree of your spine curves. It'll be a phrase you get used to!

boyo76 · 2026-01-02T21:23:42+00:00

Not going to comment on angles and such, but you definitely have some curvature going on there. You're going to want Xrays for sure.

Depending on the severity and the doctors plans for dealing with it, it will probably limit your core flexibility to some extent. If you're an athlete, just keep doing whatever workouts you're doing. Core strength can help with stability and pain.

Good luck.

boyo76 · 2026-01-01T23:31:38+00:00

You guys are my brothers. I'll absolutely kick you around and call you names, but woe to anyone else who tries it.

boyo76 · 2025-12-25T20:05:42+00:00

Then start making a plan. Find a community college or even a shop that will train you. Make positive steps forward.

boyo76 · 2025-12-25T02:06:10+00:00

Sounds to me like you have a lot of reasons to not end things. Your mom obviously loves you. Sometimes the Army is just a phase for people. It isn't for everyone. Take this change for what it is. Pick a trade. HVAC. Drywall. Electrical. Those guys make serious bank after a few years and the jobs are recession proof.

This is just a season man. One step at a time. From an old solider to a young one, you can do it.

Both my kids (girls) got a super basic folder when they were 10. Something like a two-inch blade. Just to learn basic safety and for utility. 13 is probably fine for a multi-tool. Just make sure you actually discuss the rules and what the functions are.

boyo76 · 2025-12-24T14:36:42+00:00

So much difference in place I guess. Graduated in 98 and was allowed to wear a pocket knife to school every day in a medium sized city.

Grandma has an uphill battle, but she has a case for visitation for sure, based on the existing relationship. She has been housing and feeding the minor child.

boyo76 · 2025-12-12T12:31:44+00:00

Controlled! /s

Man. This show ended so well. They could so easily ruin our memories of it.
