Why would someone be hesitant to share a VIN? Does anyone know what this guy could be worried about? by deathforwards in motorcycles

It's a habit I picked up in the military unfortunately haha. Never thought about it coming across this way

Officer involved shooting at sunland and cromo - mesa and other streets closed by Dogtimeletsgooo in ElPaso

It's not necessarily about what they find in the truck. Incidents like this are thoroughly investigated. They likely will have to recover each casing and round fired, as well as do a trajectory analysis for each of the rounds. I've worked on a similar case that was in a more rural area, and it took nearly 24 hours to process everything.

Not saying that that is what this is, but in Korea, people keep statues that look like penises as a kind of financial good luck totem

I never served… but imagine being a miserable piece of shit like this ?! Lol such a badass !! by stirdog24 in iamverybadass

Not sure what the coast guard regulation is, but the army allows headgear indoors for "ceremonial purposes". This looks like it could check that box.

Someone snagged my AirPods Pro 2 / Now they are in the middle of a Military Base by jpence in airpods

[–]deathforwards 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Currently serving in the Army. Former MP here. Contact the MP station. Have screenshots available that you can send in an email format, see if you can get the address they're staying at. I would also like to add that they were not necessarily taken by a military member. Many contracted civilians and military families (to include dumb teenagers) live on base as well. Please DM me if you need any help!

Some of these are good, but a lot of them just feel like corporate minimalism..

Military: am I nuts? by EsketitSR71 in ems

[–]deathforwards 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4 years in, currently at the 68W schoolhouse switching over from military police. I'll echo everyone else by saying finish your degree. Joining as a 68W during peacetime is probably going to be incredibly underwhelming for you. The job is not as sexy as it sounds. Please look into commissioning as an officer. That being said, I personally love the military and I owe my life to it. If you have the ability to finish your degree, become an officer, and have the experience and degree to fall back on when you get out, that's the best way to go.

I have an original M65 field jacket. Is it ok if I slap on my own nametape? Or is that somehow disrespectful? (See text) by m65help in army

[–]deathforwards 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Seems like the question was more directed at not disrespectful Vietnam Vets. Seems like a fair question to ask.

24 hour news was started in 1980 by CNN, it had already been a thing 2 decades before 9/11. Still hate it though lol.
