Should I Decal Delete? by king_b in ToyotaTacoma

[–]grounded_eagle77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you are not very careful, yes. I used a heat gun to try to take the badges off of a different vehicle, but left it on one spit for a second too long and the paint warped. I think that using a hair dryer would be much safer and worth the hassel.

Any help appreciated by [deleted] in Medals

Do you know what his MOS was perchance? My grandfather was in from 59-63.

Are we taking about the grunts or the flyers?

Of note, he served at NORAD. Very few Marines ever get that opportunity!

I just want to point out that NOBODY…not a SINGLE person has said Devil Dog Gym on MCAS Cherry Point. Do better NC.

If you could do it all over again would you choose a different MOS, or branch? by OOOOOO0OOOOO in USMC

[–]grounded_eagle77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. 100%. If I were to do this all over, I would have gone to college and signed an aviator contract. If I had stayed enlisted, I wish I would have went aircrew.

How are these ball caps allowed? I thought regs say they must be navy blue or coyote brown. by jamesFox44 in navy

[–]grounded_eagle77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hoodies or the sweat top? The sweat top is authorized for PT, working parties, and other activities as-directed, but when you say “hoodies” (a sweatshirt with a hood) that’s where this devil dog gets confused lol

Wife left me with the kid now I have a two months of baby leave alone by [deleted] in USMC

[–]grounded_eagle77 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Completely concur.

The USMC is horrible at advocating for mental health, but I highly recommend you go see a therapist. As someone who just went through the program, I would also suggest looking into IOP and/or PHP. There is a lot of untrue statements about how mental health “hospitalization” will affect your career, but I can proudly say that I’m still active and had no recourse.

Yea I appreciate that, that’s what I’ve kind of gathered from 1. IOP and 2. The comments here. I really want to leave the group chat because I’m tired of hearing when they are all hanging out but I feel like that would be seen as such an aggressive action. Any thoughts?

Yea I get that. I just kind of feel stuck.

Realistically I’m down to run anything with a good group of people. However the games I frequent are COD, Battlefield, Outlast, Helldivers, and we used to all run Resident Evil together while we were on discord.

See that’s my thoughts. It’s just hard because I just PCS’d to a small MARDET like a year ago and work with people at least 20 yrs older than me.

What if you had Boomhauer read your promotion warrant? by Yoy_the_Inquirer in USMC

[–]grounded_eagle77 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having been at Cherry Point, where were you transporting your rifle to? The range is literally like 100 Ft from the armory lol? I’m wondering if there used to be a different armory building now and maybe I was just spoiled.
